isla s @RT89656869 Sep 8, 2022 This is obviously a very sentimental film, due to the story. Its quite sad of course and poignant and it features a good performance bt Emilia Fox as the ill mother in question. You may well need some tissues for this one. It is perhaps a little cliched some may say but then again, this sort of film should be - it wouldn't really make sense otherwise, if you know what I mean?. I didn't feel it was overly and unnecessarily mawkish I suppose. It wont suit everyone as we maybe prefer to look for happier films but there is a bit of an uplifting message to it, in as much as what the list the mum left behind meant to the relatives. It has the look of a BBC drama, more than a full blown film, British or Hollywood, really but otherwise I can't think of much else to say about this. If your looking for a poignant and sad but somewhat uplifting film, then this is worth seeing, yes, although, as I say, you can pretty much guess the films story from the start but perhaps that's not entirely the point... oh yeah and 'acres and acres!'.

Brought tears to my eyes. That never used to happen pre the big C. See more Aug 30, 2019 Just watched this film. Loved it . So emotional and a lovely way for a family to remember her when shes gone. As someone whos been through this it brought back memories and i cried through most of the film. Great soundtrack too See more farah r @Farah Apr 15, 2019 Mum's List is emotional and easy to connect with but the plodding pace and incoherent timeline jumps ruin the impact the movie is supposed to have.
