Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

Nice effects though.

A Disappointing Continuation

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

One of the most wonderful and touching movies i have ever seen. I am not a crier at movies, but this one got me. The cast does a phenomenal job, and despite what some say, have an excellent feel for how to handle the film's dual genre. Michael Angarano does a superb job as the terminally ill boy, and his two buddies Slap and Ricky( Gideon Glick and Matt Bush) are in a way the best part of the movie, playing likable and hormone driven best pals. Cynthia Nixon as the young boy's grieving mother gives a deeply moving performance. The on screen relationship between Nixon and Angarano is authentic and a treasure to watch. I have seen some rather harsh critique of this film, and frankly cannot fathom it.The film splices comedy and drama well, and creates a beautiful portrayal of a young boy's last days around those who are closest to him, and his last wish(ill leave you to watch the movie to find out about this). The song at the end, Wyclef Jean's "Heavens in New York" is beautiful, and devastatingly poignant.

This film dealt with issues that people must face when fate deals a tragic illness to someone we love. It avoids mawkish sentimentality, focusing rather in presenting acceptance of inevitable loss through the warm support of family and friends. The teenage actors were very believable and delightful, skillfully handling roles that brought humor to the film. The young star was especially likable and other teens would find him easy to identify with.The writing showed insight into how difficult it is to "lighten up" when confronted with death. And if viewed as a tragi-comedy, in a kind of make believe world, the film can be viewed more lightly, as it was meant to be.

when a movie makes me laugh out loud and kills me at the same time I know I have experienced a great film. "One Last Thing ..." takes on the big issues of what makes life meaningful in a fast moving, character driven story. It's both different and fresh. The film deals with the topic of death head on. We see the central character, who is dying of cancer, and those close to him reacting to the inevitable in their own way. The authenticity brought to these relationships in this tragic situation was believable and thus immensely powerful. Showing the play and humor that lives within the moments of darkness is where the surprise is. It's real and rare. Wonderful acting and seamless writing and direction make for a rewarding movie experience. Bravo. this is a film made for and by people with heart. Enjoy it and share it with your soul mates.

Taking my girlfriend to see a movie about a teenage boy that wants to final wish in life to be having a weekend with a supermodel was a really tough sell, but after watching the movie she thanked me! We found ourselves laughing and crying, traveling on emotional journey, and contemplating our own lives, sounds like a what a movie should do to me!Personally, I don't see what's so off about the premise, sounds like exactly what I would have asked for when I was 15, if I had the gumption to ask for it. I'm not much for naming all the names of the actors in the movie, read some of the other reviews for that, though I will say I didn't really get Ethan Hawk as Dylan's dad, but if I was making a movie and Ethan Hawk wanted to be in it make a cool cameo appearance, and he was my bud, I'd say sure what the heh, let's party! Sunny Mabrey (who keeps her clothes on) is plenty hot as the babe though I'm sure if the producers had been able to land say model turned actress ANGELINA JOLIE, you wouldn't be reading this review, you'd have already seen this flick now wouldn't you!
