A toned down 50/50 for women. Very heartfelt comedy that will leave you feeling happy, which is hard to do with this subject

"I just don't want to rub it in that my life is great right now." Jess (Barrymore) and Milly (Collette) have been friends forever. They have experienced the best and worst life has to offer them. Their strength of their friendship is tested when Milly is diagnosed with cancer and Jess becomes pregnant. This is a very good movie that isn't as depressing as you may think. The chemistry between the two actresses is perfect and you really feel like they have been friends for years and years. The movie is comedy, drama, real and emotional all at the same time without ever becoming sappy or totally clichéd. I think that women will enjoy this more than men, but I did think it was good and I actually do recommend this. A great story about true friendship and being there for each other no matter what happens. It's a toned down 50/50 for women. Overall, a very heartfelt comedy that will leave you feeling happy, which is hard to do with this subject matter. I give this a B.
