Just saw this last night off of Netflix. Really good movie if anyone is interest. Very intense, very well acted, very interesting story, pretty original. It stars Sean Penn, Naomi Watts, and Benicio Del Toro, all are excellent.

A breif synopsis is that Sean Penn gets a heart transplant and becomes involved in the life of the doner family.

There's quite of bit of graphic material here so it's not family viewing or for the faint of heart, but if you can handle that stuff and appreciate a quality movie, check it out.

Yeah, it was good. Very solid acting. I don't know about it being graphic. Some people that did not like Momento will not want to see this flick since it almost act in the same way. You have been warned.

Just another thumbs up. An excellent (although kind of depressing) movie with interesting presentation!

Finally just saw it myself.. I loved it..

Naomi Watt's acting was brilliant.. the scene of her and Penn in the kitchen gave me goose bumps

Just saw it as well, worthy of those Oscar noms... Benecio's role was very powerful, and the sequencing was really well done, brilliant.

Nice a bit of a QT copy but still a good film.

As a parent, this was a very difficult film to watch. Brilliant and superbly acted, but emotional subject matter that hit very close to home.
