    The book "Veronika Decides to Die" is one of the most motivating and moving story that I have ever read. So... I took the chance to check this USA adaptation (there is an Asian that I haven't seen) and I have to admit it is a good and beautiful movie with a positive message to r...( read more)emember for your whole life. It is slow-moving but I never got bored. Gellar portraits Veronica very good. The direction is good and there are some stylish scenes that are quite beautiful.
    Great movie for adults and teenagers too.

    Great film. It felt genuine and was touching (I liked the scene where Veronika plays the piano in front of Edward. That was amazing).
    SMG did a FANTASTIC job in this role. I'm hoping this is just the beginning of good things to come!

    Bem diferente do livro..o filme podia ter se aprofundado mais no tema da depressão,e sem isso acabou ficando meio vazio,mas para variar,otima performance da sarah michelle gellar.

    It sounds very interesting and it may be good!

    Apesar da boa conclusão é excessivamente lento, poderia ser melhor.

    Paulo Coelho is overrated but I'm expecting Sarah Michelle's another good performance. She's improving and it's good to see such a sympathetic actress like her doing a fine job.

    I think Paulo Coelho is insanely overrated, as most superstar, best-seller authors are (Stephen King and Dan Brown come to mind) but let's remember: From good books come bad movies, from bad books come great movies.

    And I'm feeling this is going to be...( read more) Sarah Michelle Gellar's big break, as both The Air I Breathe and Southland Tales didn't work for many people.

    Here's hoping.
