Review of Life or Something Like It (2002) by Deb S — 16 Aug 2010
Lanie Kerrigan (Angelina Jolie) is a stuck up news reporter who is being considered for a posh job in New York, but first she must prove herself in the field by working with Pete, an experienced cameraman (Edward Burns) whom she supposedly hates. One day, she interviews a strange street prophet and he announces that the blonde Angelina Jolie will die within a week.
She doesn't believe him at first, but after he makes some other predictions that come true, she begins to realize that she is in fact going to die. As Thursday (D-day) quickly approaches, the reporter re-evaluates her own life and decides to change the way she lives.
All in all an interesting movie, with a message worth pondering `if you suddenly discovered that you might only have a week more to live, how would you spend that remaining time and what changes would you make to your life?'.
