Pros: funny, true and entertaining
Cons: "leave ya hanging" ending
Sandra Bullock was superb in the movie "28 Days", directed by Betty Thomas, and co-staring Steve Buscemi and Marianne Jean-Baptiste.
Bullock portrays a woman who realizes what life can be like without the haze of alcohol. But this...

Pros: Left the Cliche behind
Cons: 0
28 Days takes the ominous task of making rehab look anything more than a cliche and turns in a formidable film. Sandra Bullock carries the movie with charm, grace, and realism. While no matter what movie she stars in, she can't help coming across as...

Pros: Sandra Bullock
Cons: Formula plot
In this film, Sandra Bullock proves once again that she should have a better film career than she does. I liked her in Speed and While You Were Sleeping and always wondered what went wrong with her career. She just seemed to have a knack for picking...

Pros: reality based
Cons: clichey at times
Ok, I have to admit I'm a Sandra Bullock fan. She is the only person I can think of who has not done a bad movie. I've never regretted the money or time wasted watching one of her films. 28 days was no exception. This movie turned out to be exactly...

Pros: Well chosen actors, old story told with new little twists
Cons: The plot's been done... Not your typical Sandy Bullock movie, either. A bit character-driven, but that makes it likable.
When I first heard of the plot to this movie, I thought to myself, "Oh no." Sandra Bullock, who has been one of my favorite actresses, is heading down her own drunken spiral. There is, first of all, the fact that, before this, her most serious...

Pros: Lukewarm Dramatic Comedy, Bullock always charms
Cons: Mortensen's character is useless, too cheery for serious nature of subject
I suppose that audiences are supposed to interpret this movie as Sandra Bullock's move from doing cutesy movies to doing something slightly less wholesome. Sandra Bullock is known for being that wholesome, cute girl that audiences fell in love with...

Pros: I HIT FOR $500 LATER THAT SAME NIGHT.
Cons: NO ICE CREAM. NO LARGE-BREASTED WOMEN. NO PLOT.
Well, I'm back from my three day cruise, and don't you just want to know all about it? Of course you do!
Eight relatives got together for this thing to celebrate my parents' 50th Anniversary. How about that? Plus, this was my first cruise!...

Pros: Funny, likable characters
Cons: Kind of predictable in spots
I thought for sure I'd hate this movie. I rented it because there wasn't much else on the shelves and figured, "ah, what the hell?"
I thoroughly expected to watch the first 20 or so minutes of this movie and then it off, disgusted...

Pros: Bullock acts! The quirky foreigner is actually funny!
Cons: weak direction, script, and ending
There was a moment, towards the end of Speed, when this impressionable viewer fell briefly in love with Sandra Bullock. Luckily, roles in The Net, Two if by Sea, and Speed 2, among others, quickly got me over any fixation...

Pros: Great acting, humor, intense emotions
Cons: Could've focused more on family relationships
Sandra Bullock was great! She plays Gwen Cummings. She's an alcoholic that's been sentenced by a judge to spend the next 28 days in rehab. Why?After waking up late from a night of boozing and intimacy with her boyfriend Jasper (played by hunky Dominic...

Pros: Heroic, believable
Cons: Jasper's character not totally believable
Joining a group of characters she can't get bombed with is not Sandra Bullock's character Gwen's idea of a good time. Gwen is a party girl, intent upon drinking, pill-popping, laughing, and caring less.
We meet her just before her sister...

Pros: Funny, Some Touching Parts, Good Acting
Cons: Maybe Some Parts A Little Predictable
I had been interested in seeing this movie for a while. Plus, I've always liked Sandra Bullock. In 28 Days, Gwen (Bullock) is an alcoholic who doesn't care about her problem. That is until she ruins her sisters wedding (by falling onto the cake...

Pros: Unexpected lines that will make you bust a gut
Cons: Ends abruptly, almost unsettling
As I settled down to watch 28 Days, I wondered if this was going to be another one of Sandra Bullock's flops. She's one of those actresses who either does great or bombs big time. From the beginning of the movie, the script's humor and Bullock's...

Pros: some parts of Bullocks performance, some insightful dialogue
Cons: way too much emotional manipulation and overindulgence
Movies that attempt lighthearted looks at serious subjects walk a very fine line. They want to entertain, while still delivering a powerful message. When dealing with the effects of addiction and alcoholism, that line becomes even finer. It is a...
