My Life Without Me

I don't like being taken for an idiot. Spoon-fed obvious statements, no dramatic thrust and a heavy handed pretentious wank make this film unbearable to watch. Sara Poley is trying, bless her heart, but the direction blows. She also needs to look into voice-work. She doesn't have a voice. The whole thing is forced and hardly believable. Even if it was, there was an opportunity to do something deep and great and interesting, instead the director's choice was to go for the lame and obvious and present a pretentious series of boring copy-cat scenarios and "seen it a thousand times" imagery. Don't waste your time with this there are plenty of good movies out there worth your 2 hours.
