Everything about director Irwin Winkler's film, Life as a House, can be described as stunning. Between the gorgeous shots of the house overlooking the water where much of the action takes place, the brilliant performances of all the actors involved and Mark Andrus' beautiful story and writing style, every aspect of the film is completely captivating.

The rating is almost for Kevin Kline alone as he's practically the only solid foundation to this movie, which saves it from total ruin. However, the rest of it is put together and acted out in a pretty shonky way.

Superficial, borderline mawkish family drama rescued by fine performances all round, and excellent, sturdy work from Kline. It's a shame the screenplay consistently lets its performers down, by going for the dramatically obvious and simplistic at every turn; this becomes a serious problem in the final third when credibility and plausability are thrown out the window. Kline's mysterious ailment which is too severe for treatment, but otherwise keeps him in pretty fine fettle is also a problem.

Entertaining story about a terminally ill man who wants to build the house and reconnect with his out of control son. Kevin Kline and Kristen Scott Thomas are great. Jena Malone is beautiful. Hayden Christensen just adequate. Why is it, Mary Streenburgen keeps getting roles as the older woman having an affair with a teenager? The story was tender but some of the gritty additions were unnecessary. Some pacing issues. Slow but good music. Still I liked it.
