Review: Wonderfully Emotional - Like many, I may have initially been interested in this movie for it's subject matter and perhaps an expectation of something light, humorous and a a strong cast. Well you get all those things, but mostly you get an incredibly moving and emotional experience. The cast as expected were wonderful. John Hawkes was so good as Mark O'Brien that is was probably 30 minutes into the movie that I recognized him as one of the cast of Identity - he was incredibly convincing as man smitten by polio. Helen Hunt too was a perfect choice. The real-life woman she plays (she is shown in some of the extras) was an extraordinary woman too and Helen played the role boldly. There is nudity - Helen Hunt's character (and by extension, sex surrogates in general) are not coy. It is a comfort in fact to see a real woman - beautiful but real and age appropriate - in a movie, where there is usually so muc pressure to only show the sleekest of bodies. There is humor too - but it is the kind of humor we experience in real life - the movie is not played in any way for laughs. Nor does it overly sentimentalize Mark, his condition and his hopes. Life can be cruel but we can be lucky to encounter people who will be kind and who will love us (in whatever way they can). This is a wonderful movie - but be prepared to be emotionally affected. I watched it alone and still couldn't avoid choking up as I watched. Why it didn't feature more in the Academy Awards is a mystery - though Helen Hunt did get nominated for Best Supporting Actress. John Hawkes deserved an Oscar nomination too in my opinion.
Review: Great Movie. - One of the top ten movies of the year. Not a bunch of CGI like most today, it is like everything is a cartoon no real acting. This one is far superior. This is acting between two poeple, simple yet complex. Helen Hunt was amazing again, Somewhat like the movie Water Dance she did in her early year where her boyfriend was a Quad. This time her leading man was amazing keeping up with her the whole movie. Helen Hunt is sort of a classic actress to me, very beautiful but with the beauty we knew growing up. Not all the make up , the tatoos, by the way wasn't long ago you only saw a tatooed woman in a freak side show, to me that is where they should have stayed. But back to the movie. I admit alot will watching it just to see Helen Hunt nude as much as she is ,but please try get past that and see the true meaning behind the movie. I am some what disablied not anywhere close to what he was in this movie. Helen showed caring and understanding, wish I could give it more then 5 stars . A special message to all our veterns, Welcome Home and to those serving in harm's way come home safe, god bless and thank you ...

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A chick-flick with a twist that works!
*by R***E on November 4, 2014*

A very tender and moving movie (albeit, a bit of soft porn!). Helen Hunt as you've never seen her before, I suspect. She's completely naked much of the time and shows no shame. But it works. One of those weird combinations of date and chick-flick movies that you rarely find. The man will love the nudity and storyline and the woman will love the storyline and the intense connection made between the two main characters. Definitely worth watching. However, don't watch it with your parents, your children or anyone else that you don't know really well and feel comfortable with. Just sayin'.......
