Julia Bailey What a load of rubbish. I watched it through to the end from the pure fascination of wondering how much worse it could get.A nurse (and I am trained as such) would not be allowed to do many of the features portrayed.For example plunging a needle into the heart muscle.Perhaps this is not the case in America or wherever the film was made.If so - God help any patient under that nurse's care.Probably should have been given more time off to get her head together - probably in a psychiatric ward! I hope I don't have to struggle for more words to get this review published.What a load of garbage.Or don't you accept anything that is not favourable?

AJinny There are few words that describe this movie better than heartwarming, moving, a true gift from Hollywood. Get out your tissues, a great cup of something comforting and be prepared to resolve some questions or feelings that you have been keeping down!! And Smile huge with a lighter heart! I lost my mom early in life and always feel there are things left unsaid. This movie gave me the feeling that even though I feel there are those unspoken words I can feel comfort in the fact that it just might be possible she knew my heart all along. It's not the religious aspect of the movie it is the discovery aspect of the movie that has given me such comfort. Kudos to Hollywood on this one!

xredgarnetx SUN would appear to be two movies sort of at odds with each other. One is a tale of love's redemption that revolves around the growing affection between an emotionally distraught nurse (Chabert) and her charge, a never-say-die elderly woman (Rowlands) racked with cancer. The other is a ghost story, more or less, as the nurse tries to deal with the murder of her father, a community activist killed by members of the community. Now, without knowing the novel, I would say someone decided to throw a little GHOST WHISPERER into this otherwise straightforward tale of love and compassion. Reason? Chabert played GW star Jen Hewitt's sister on PARTY OF FIVE and also did a spot-on imitation of Hewitt in a recent, spoofy remake of an '80s romantic comedy that stared Hewitt, plus Chabert has even appeared on GW as a guest star with ties to Hewitt. Chabert looks and acts just like Hewitt, only better, and is just as pretty and big-busted. My wife stopped to watch the movie because at first she thought Chabert was Hewitt! Make no mistake: This is a chick flick with no redeeming qualities for the guys. But Chabert is a terrific little actress I happen to admire, and Rowlands is a past master of these roles. She has in fact played this same sort of role in at least two other movies. The ghost angle amounts to little, by the way, and could just as easily have been discarded.

kinnypat Did you ever cry in a movie so hard that people walked into the room and thought something terrible just happened to you? That's me at the end of watching this movie. But sometimes in the movie it was really happy too--and the acting was so amazing, Lacy (sp?)Chabert is like my favorite favorite favorite now--she was so real--I felt like I was watching somebody just going through stuff and not like they were in a movie. It made me think about all the happiness and sadness in life and how you have to try to make every day of your life a great day like Gena Rowland's character does in the movie. My mom loved it too, she was crying as hard as I was, we ran out of Kleenex half way through the movie. And I SWEAR my brother was crying too but if he saw that I wrote this he would kill me. THANK YOU LIFETIME!
