Über diesen Film

Our Friend tells the true, inspiring, heartbreaking and beguiling story of the Teague family-journalist Matt (Casey Affleck), his vibrant wife Nicole (Dakota Johnson) and their two young daughters-when their lives are upended by Nicole's diagnosis of terminal cancer. As Matt's responsibilities as caretaker and parent become increasingly exhausting and overwhelming, the couple's best friend Dane Faucheux (Jason Segel) offers to come and help. But when Dane recognizes the unrelenting toll being taken on Matt, Nicole and the two girls, he puts his life on hold to remain with his friends to the very end. The impact of this generous, albeit complicated, gesture proves greater and more profound than anyone could have imagined.

Bewertungen und Rezensionen

It's rare to come across a movie that takes one on an authentic emotional journey, but Our Friend does. It's a thought piece about the realities of male friendship through time, about mortality, and about family. It's a movie that conveys a genuine sense of warmth, and moves along briskly without rushing. I loved it.

I thought jason segel and dakota johnson had more chemistry together then her and casey affleck. Had one or 2 moments that were funny and a couple hearfelt moments but overall just ok.

Pretty good blend of humor and drama... took a while to get used to the non-linear storyline but overall good acting and enjoyable.
