Pros: Sandra Bullock Cons: Formulaic
First, a confession: I love Sandra Bullock. Because of her naturalness,
openness, candor and energizing personality, there's little she can't splash
light into. She turns turgid into twinkling; ordinary to original; banal to ...

Pros: good acting Cons: a little too pat
I went to see this movie because I like Sandra Bullock well enough and the previews seemed interesting. In general, it was OK, but I think a movie called 'Clean and Sober' starring Michael Keaton handled this subject matter a little better. I also...

Pros: Bullock/Perkins/Buscemi/Tudyke/Skye/Ladd Cons: Realizing That These Problems Exist.
This movie, because of the subject matter, was at the bottom of my list of "must-sees." Watching anyone destroy their brain, the one thing that separates human beings from animals, is not my idea of a good time.
Two hours of...

Pros: a great message without being preachy Cons: none
This movie was very interesting to me. I am a Sandra Bullock fan, love her! And she does a truly fantastic job with this. I am also almost 5 years sober, have been in her position before (tho perhaps not quite so extreme) and i really felt they...

Pros: Sandra Bullock Cons: Half Baked was funnier
Recently, I saw the film 28 Days starring Sandra Bullock, who had a, somewhat out of character role as a raging alcoholic, who trashes her sister’s wedding, by making a really drunk toast, then falling backwards into the wedding cake, driving down to the...

Pros: Well done comedy about substance abuse Cons: Possibly trivializes rehabilitation?
At first, I thought "28 Days" would be just another chick flick. Not that I have anything against chick flicks, but it's refreshing to see movies that have more substance than the typical gushy women crying over their trials and...

Pros: Funny, heartfelt, romantic, educational, and FUNNY! Cons: Inconclusive ending
Attention movie goers: Don't wait 28 days to go out and see this film! This is a great movie for people who like to go out and enjoy a comical movie, but who also likes a little substance and drama in the film. 28 Days stars Sandra Bullock who is an...

Pros: Good acting- drama and comedy Cons: Wrong portrayal of rehab
I just saw this movie and thought parts of it were very good.
But please don't think rehab is like this!
Sandra Bullock plays the part of a writer who is addicted to alcohol and drugs. She and her boyfriend (Jasper)party until the wee...

Pros: Sandra Bullock Cons: The supporting cast is wasted
I really like Sandra Bullock. I think her personality is very charming and I have enjoyed most of the films she has been in. I even saw her shopping at the Beverly Center once.
"28 Days" 'directed' by Betty Thomas, tells the story of...

Pros: Funny, and witty humor Cons: Bad acting, some lame joke
Once again I am standing in front of the ticket booth with my friend and we are arguing on what to see. I wanted to see the Skulls but he wanted to see Boys dont Cry or something like that. We couldnt agree so we comprimised and took the movie that...

Pros: Steve Buscemi Cons: Sandra Bullock
Despite enduring successes the likes of William Shakespeare and Stephen King, writers in general get the short end of the stick when it comes to respect. Writers in general are viewed as a worthless lot: Liars, drunks, drug addicts, scum.
And...

Pros: Sandra Bullock is back Cons: coming soon to Lifetime
As David Spade might have said on "SNL," "I liked "28 Days" the
first time I saw it--when it was called "Rude Awakening."" That's not
meant as an insult--I happen to like that Showtime series--I...

Pros: Sandra Bullock, Mariane Jean-Baptiste Cons: Weak Plot Points
Although Sandra Bullock has relinquished her title as American's favorite actress to Julia Roberts, she has shown that she can still make good movies, as evidenced by "28 Days."
A mix of dramatic elements with a laugh here and there,...

Pros: The movie is an eye opener with a twist of comedy Cons: They went over-board in some places
I am not usually a huge fan of Bullock, but this movie seemed to catch my eye. This movie has a bit of everything in it. Love, hate, action, suspense, and lots of comedy. Bullock knocked my socks off with her performance in this movie. For anyone...

Pros: Absolutely hilarious Cons: none
First off, is this for you?
This is a funny movie and I stress funny. If you want a good laugh and an insiders look on alcoholism this might be a good one for you. Granted, it isn't the best view of an alcoholic, it does show many aspects...
