I don't see how people don't like this movie. Maybe I'm just a sucker for time travel/alternate reality movies but I really liked it. All the alternate endings etc were interesting as well.

I thought it was a great movie too.

And I agree with SagaLore - the alternate endings were a huge disappointment.

I just finished watching it last night.

I found it depressing. Up until the very end, everyone had such a sad life.

I wouldn't recommend it to others.

i thought the concept was very good. i do , however, think they should've had someone other than ashton kutcher in the lead role.

I was suprised to him see him in a non-comedic role, but I think he did a good job.

Huh? Some of the best movies focus on the reality and the negativity of life. If you want a fairy tale ending, watch a Disney movie.

Exactly. 21 Grams was a very depressing movie, yet it was also one of my favorites. Mystic River is another example of a good movie that is pretty depressing.
