Izzard is good, but the other actors mostly seem to be phoning it in, and Larry Mills just isn't up to the job. That said, most of the fault has to be placed on the shoulders of the script: it's trite and patronising, and the preachy morality tale is often too much to take.

A modern day mash-up of It's A Wonderful Life and A Christmas Carol, this sets out to tug at the heartstrings from the opening scene, but ends up laying it on too thick for my liking. The central message about small deeds having larger, more profound consequences at a later date is quite nice, but again, it goes too far and the whole notion of getting a "second chance" at life was too trite for me. Izzard is good, though.
