A depressing insight into the Life of People who work and save all their lives and don’t build the familial network to make it all worthwhile.

It's Tom Hanks and he's always got to be worth your time in my opinion.

Easy to watch, a gentle journey through a story that, albeit dressed up for Hollywood, probably reflects the reality that pervades our lives. The film wouldn't attract viewers, regardless of its cast, if it was called "S.hit Happens".

Highly enjoyable, and as is often the case with Hanks, it creates a roller coaster of emotions, as events unfold. Hanks at his best.

Not seen the film, but it's a great book.

I didn't think there was much to distinguish it from the 2015 Swedish version, A Man Called Ove.

(Which I thought quite watchable too.)

Sorry Leo, I should have said. Yes, its on Sky (I just got my movies back in time for winter and at the same time binned Netflix)

....however I've just installed* Sky Stream and with my package you get Paramount+ and Netflix for free.

Well, I say 'installed'. I took it out the box, plugged in two cables and typed in my network password.....

Ooooh see that Ultra High Definition..... :shock: Even the Ryder Cup Golf is pleasant to watch.
