Just Like Heaven (DVD)

What it's about: When Elizabeth (Reese Witherspoon), a workhaolic doctor becomes a spirit following a car accident, goes back to her apartment to find the new tenant (Mark Ruffalo), who turns out to be the only one who can see her.

What I thought of it: I had read the book "Et si c'était vrai", de Marc Levy and really liked it. It was funny and also quite touching, so I had to see the movie. I liked the movie even if it was a little "Hollywood-a-fied", and not completely faithful to the book, but overall it had its funny moments and its touchy-feely ones. The book makes you think about spirituality a little more than the movie does.

Overall it's a cute movie.

Mark Ruffalo, is an actor that has a little something about him that makes me think a bit of Tony Danza; a clean, good guy -and I'm sure we will see more and more of.
