Ok, I don't know if it should be a pre-requisite or not but having lost my father, sister and mother )and I'm 57 years old) this movie tells you a lot about the grieving process. I remember shortly after my sister died, a dream in which she appeared. I spoke with her and my father i think. Anyway, I kinda cut it all short and I told them in the dream that you couldn't be real because you are dead. I really wish that i could have had 48 hrs with them anyway. It was some-times difficult to watch because a lot of the anger and frustration shown was and is very real. It takes a long time to get over that stuff. I loved this movie. Comedy? Well I guess, sort of. But it didn't really matter to me. I guess movies are like that, we all see different things in them because we are all different a people. We have emotions too. Huh, I guess that IS our downfall. But you know what I'm glad we are who we are because without the roller-coaster of a ride we call life, life itself wouldn't be much fun. I'd never give that up. (I think that may have been a spoiler of sorts). Watch it. Try to look beyond an crappy jokes because they are there for a reason. I loved this movie. Thank you.
