    For a mood-lifter, this movie works like magic. It's good-hearted, smart, original and leaves you with a smile on your face -I know it did for me. The performances are great and quite beyond believable, beautiful scenery and soundtrack.

    On the other hand however, the low-budge...( read more)t special effects sort of "betray" this movie. It's unnecessarily long, confusing and complicated, and it doesn't address all the questions it poses.

    I would recommend it to all, but it's not as great and magical as it could be.

    deep, touching movie...great script...great view on life and death...one of the best movies ever...
    i just hate the fact that most people don't understand what it is about, that they don't see the meaning behind the words...there is more to this movie than what you see...
    anyway....( read more)..it sort of changed my life...i absolutely love it

    I didn't really like this. The story didn't make a whole lot of sense.
