A really ridiculous concept handled in a very grounded way. This is no one’s favorite movie, but I don’t think anyone hates it either.
Very charming dramedy, and proves Will Ferrell's abilities as an actor!
very cool idea for a movie and i liked how it played out. ferrell takes the movie to a new level, esp since im used to seeing him as silly
Great Acting, great cast, great script... Impecable movie.
A unique and charming story about facing death. A light hearted film, that has depth and the right amount of comedy. Recommended watch.
Great premise and Will Ferrel’s charming comedy chops in an unusually serious movie, although not in love with the ending.
A quaint and sweet movie that lets Will Ferrel prove that he’s more than just a comedian. Not as creative as other meta comedies out there.
A fun movie to watch with a weird, unique premise
Rated it good probably because how many times I've seen it and I had my fill but that probably means it was amazing. been several years now
If you liked this movie wait until you read the original script
