A modern version of Beaches. Formulaic with some forced dialogue. Has some good qualities too though. Fun characters. Will absolutely make you cry and I might rewatch it for that reason alone.
I really enjoyed this even if it made me cry. Drew Barrymore and Toni Collette have good friendship chemistry and I wonder if the hang in real life. Very sad in the end. Blah.
The most underrated movie i have ever seen this made me angry..This movie is so realistic and it really touched me in many ways..It makes you wonder and dialogues are diamonds..It's very sad too but a trully lesson for life and perfomances are perfect specially from Collete! Reccomend to everyone 8.6/10 don't miss this one!
I absolutely love both Drew Barrymore and Toni Collette. They were great in other movies but this one tops it all.
This movie shows the rude way that cancer influences lifes. It's heartbreaking but also it tries to hold some grim sense of humour ready. That is what it makes so realistic and lovely.
The way the characters are built are very multifaceted. And in the end you can just wish to have such a great person like Jess in your life if you're forced to go your last way like that.
wonderful! one of the best
Well rounded characters ensure this film pulls all the right strings, especially from your heart. Sob.
Very very very touching </3
Totally agree with Serena, I hadn't seen a trailer or looked up any information about the film, and looking at the cover I expected a cheesy (romantic) comedy. Turned out to be wrong.
Really liked Drew Barrymore in this, and I liked the sort-of-happy ending.

Miss You Already tells the story of two live long best friends, who went through everything together. The story plays out around a time Milly and Jess both go through their difficulties, Jess is trying to start a family with her husband while Milly just found out about her cancer. The movies shows their struggle with certain situations as well as the relationship they have with each other, their husbands and their families.
I went to see this movie with one of my friends. When me and her go to the movies we most of the time go for romantic comedies. We chose this movie without knowing what is was about, and it hit us right in the face, real hard. I didn’t feel like I was watching a super great movie, but I’m gonna be honest with y’all, there were some tears. The acting was great. Drew Barrymore did a great Jess, she was an interesting character. Super sweet with a total different lifestyle from Milly. I think Jess took a lot of shit from Milly, and I was just waiting for her breaking point. I wasn’t entirely sure how that would go down, but it totally fitted her character and Drew did just great. Milly on the other hand was a character I didn’t like from the start. Of course she’s a mighty strong woman who made some serious mistakes but in the end she’s just herself, which I thought was beautiful. The way she even made jokes when all was almost over, I think that showed her real character. Dominic Cooper did a great job as Kit. He made a transformation throughout the movie, none of the other characters did. The way he helped Milly out with everything and how he was in their relationship in general was very wonderful.
The movie had a lot of “shakey closeups” in it. Which I see more often in these kind of movies so I guess that’s a thing. It made it feel more real and gave you time to really think about things I guess, but I think there were a few to many in this one. I really enjoyed the more personal shots, one of my favorites was when Milly just came out of surgery to remove her breasts and she’s facing the window, that was a really pretty shot.
Miss You Already is a beautiful movie about friends who go through a tough part of lives together, filled with laughs and tears. I enjoyed it but it wasn’t the greatest movie ever made.
