Editorial Review:

Description:
A reporter, Lanie Kerrigan (Jolie), interviews a psychic homeless man (Shalhoub) for a fluff piece about a football game's score. Instead, he tells her that her life has no meaning, and is going to end in just a few days, which sparks her to action, trying to change the pattern of her life...

Amazon.com:
Angelina Jolie proves her box-office versatility in Life or Something Like It, a romantic comedy (Jolie's first) that succeeds on the strength of Jolie's appealing performance. As Seattle TV news reporter Lanie Kerrigan, Jolie craves celebrity (i.e., she's insecure and seeks approval), but her disapproving cameraman (Edward Burns) detects an admirable woman beneath Lanie's bleached-blond coif and pancake makeup. When a homeless street prophet (Tony Shalhoub) predicts that Lanie will soon be dead, she gradually juggles her priorities, connecting with Burns, appearing drunk on camera (a mistake that ultimately works in her favor), and finding new confidence in her professional and romantic potential. It's generic fluff, but director Stephen Herek (Rock Star, Mr. Holland's Opus) approaches the material with his reliably good-natured sincerity, and Jolie's bubbly charm mixes well with Burns's casual sensibility. And while Herek can't compare to George Cukor or Billy Wilder, he knows just how to handle the inevitable loopholes in the prophet's not-so-gloomy premonition. --Jeff Shannon

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - "Prophets Don't Joke ~ Things You Never See Coming"
Synopsis: What's an attractive, motivated, upwardly mobile newscaster and supposed to do when confronted with the possibility of death? While doing an on-the-street interview with Prophet Jack (Tony Shalhoub), one of Seattle's local street derelicts and self-proclaimed prophet Lanie Kerrigan (Jolie) is told she's going to die within a week. When Prophet Jack's other predicts come true Lanie becomes a believer and finds herself re-evaluating her life and set things in order while there's still time. ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - IT'S ONLY MEM BUT:
JOLIES CHARACTER IS A INSECURE TV REPORTER WITH A DISAPPEARING CMERA MAN. A STREET PERSON TELLS HER SHE IS GOING TO DIE. SO SHE TRIES TO CHANGE HER LIFE. IT IS A GGREAT COMEDY. JM



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Life
This is a great story about what is important in life and what the meaning of being happy in life is all about.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - If Joilie is in it, then it is stupid....
This is another rupulisve movie. Everyone in this movie looks like they were ready to play in a porn flick, and it comes off as porn, even though they still keep their clothes on. Jolie shows of her looks, her lack of acting ability clearly evident, and shows that this is a stupid production.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - WOW DANG ONE OF THE BEST TV DVD-MOVE FOR SHORE EVER DONE
NOW I COULD EASYLY SAY THIS WILL GO DOWN AS ONE OF THE GRATEST MOVE EVER MADE IN THE WORLD THAT IS SO FOR SHORE & THAT IS PUTTING IT LIGHTLY
