Four lost souls—a disgraced TV presenter, a foul-mouthed teen, an isolated single mother, and a failed musician—decide to end their lives on the same night, New Year's Eve. When this disillusioned quartet of strangers meet unintentionally at the same suicide hotspot, a London high-rise with the well-earned nickname Topper's Tower, they mutually agree to call off their plans for six weeks, forming an unconventional, dysfunctional family. They become media sensations as the Topper House Four and search together for reasons to keep on living.

Great cast, well acted, funny and sad, but believable and heartwarming.

Rick Anthony McArthur

From what I recall this is a well crafted drama that opens up the lighter side of self doubt & lost hope 4 a better way 2 inner peace!

Heart warming movie, better than i expected

Interesting concept. I felt the characters come alive

Different from the book but was still good.

The narrative isn't great but they pulled it off. I enjoyed it (not super serious)

Had a great cast and good ideas but kind of dragged and got quite boring.

A serious topic for a wannabe comedy, with not enough depth to be anything more. The definition of meh.

I can’t get over the insensitivity to mental health issues inherent in making a dramedy about suicidal individuals. It’s trivializing.

The set-up is great, but there's not enough depth of character.
