Really enjoyed this movie, I felt like the chemistry between Tea and Nic was excellent. Not usually my type of film but I was engrossed. The ending felt like it was kind of sad, no? It caught me off guard, I was expecting a "feel good" ending. It seems most people have this emotional response to the ending but for me it just was a little depressing. The Kate he sits down with at the end is not the same Kate he was married to in his other life. ALSO, his adorable children they had he will never see again. Idk maybe it's just me, I definitely enjoy this movie. But the ending is much more sad than most people seem to admit

Great film but kinda sad
Beautiful
Wow ! What a movie. Very rarely I come across movie which keeps me absorbed till the end. This was one such movie. The knot was beautifully tied and untied. It tries to answer most of the questions we might tend to ask. The ending was more practical and was not forced just for the sake of an happy ending.
A great movie, I don't know how I didn't come across it so long. Along the lines of It's a wonderful life.
A favourite
One of my guilty favourite movies that always sucks me right in. Cage plays a rich, ruthless business man who is shown the life he might have led (by guardian angel Don Cheadle )if he'd made a different choice. In A Wonderful Life kind of way he wakes up in suburbia with a mini van, bad suits and a couple of kids, but he also has true love with ex-girlfriend (Tea Leoni).
I love the relationship here between Jack and his daughter -its so sweet, she sees through him and thinks he's an alien that's replaced her father.
Cage is, Cage but this was made back before he stopped caring so he has some great moments. Leoni makes me smile in every one of her scenes, she's so genuine and happy and goofy amidst the chaos of their life. One of those warm-fuzzy movies.
