Movie Review – My Sisters Keeper
Last night we went and saw My Sisters Keeper!! It was a very fabulous movie. However it did hoave everyone in the theater crying!!
The premise of the movie is an 11 yr old sueing her parents for medical emancipation because they had her specifically to save her older sisters life. The older sister suffers from a rare form of Luekemia. The movie was very well done. I think it portayed pretty close what haveing cancer is like and what the treatments are like. I have never gode through it myself but I have helped friends and family members go through it. I strongly recommend that everyone go see the movie!!
I want to go see it again.

I have read the book – knowing how tough that was to read I’m a little nervous about the movie. Plus the author made a really controversial choice of ending in the book, and I am deadly curious as to whether that stayed in the movie or changed… glad you enjoyed it!

Jeri,
I thought the movie was great, I really like the fact it did not sugar coat cancer or dying. Drives me nuts when people can’t just say someone died.
A bunch of people after the movie complained that the movie did not follow the book and the ending was different. I can’t say how as I have not read the book but it is on my list to read.
I think the movie is definately worth seeing.
