An Unfinished Life

Director: Lasse Hallstrom
Year: 2005
Stars: Robert Redford, Jennifer Lopez, Morgan Freeman, Becca Gardner

This is a pretty standard example of a Hollywood drama. There's nothing wrong with it, there's just nothing really very special about it either.

The story focuses on Jean Gilkyson (Jennifer Lopez) and her daughter. In order to get away from her abusive boyfriend, they head out to Wyoming and her stepfather's ranch, who still blames Jean for his son's death.

If you can't guess the ending of this film, you've not watched enough Hollywood dramas - in which case you'll probably quite enjoy this. It's not overly sickening, just a bit predictable. Overall, pretty standard fare.

Rating: 3 out of 5
