A magnificent film. It's powerful, heartfelt and completely excellent. Director, Lasse Halstorm has crafted another remarkable and compelling drama. Robert Redford is astonishing, his best performance yet. Morgan Freeman is amazing as always. One of his finest performances. Redfo...( read more)
A carefully but not brilliantly crafted kind of western that draws the viewer in and shows him exactly what it promises. It succeeds on that level but does not demonstrate any ingenuity or flourish with any profound cinematic moments.
An emotional storyline though the outcome is pretty obvious.
My favourite line was probably: "Einar, would you bury me next to Griffin?" "Don't you think you ought to die first!"
A very enjoyable watch and possibly one that I would watch again.
This movie was actually pretty interesting. Mitch (Morgan Freeman's character) had the most positive attitude after all he had been through, and it was very inspiring.
Buonismo americano + finale scontato + Jennifer Lopez.
Sticazzi, mi è piaciuto lo stesso.
This movie is is so impressive. It makes us see how the lost of a child feels like. Morgan Freeman was great in An Unfinished Life, just like Robert Redford. Even Jennifer Lopez did an incredible job, something I didn't expect at all. And Becca Gardner (Griff), wow! She's an extr...( read more)

The grizzly may have mauled Mitch, but by the end, that metaphor has mauled us. full review
An Unfinished Life doesn't succumb to the emotional dumbing-down that has become the norm in movies. full review
[The film] is modest and heartfelt, dealing directly with straightforward material. full review
This movie is is so impressive. It makes us see how the lost of a child feels like. Morgan Freeman was great in An Unfinished Life, just like Robert Redford. Even Jennifer Lopez did an incredible job, something I didn't expect at all. And Becca Gardner (Griff), wow! She's an extremely talented girl.
I love this movie, and I can recommend it everybody!
