This movie shows how to deal with the pain of losing a loved
one especially if the deceased is only a child. What would you do if you were
in the shoes of the grieving father Howard (played by Will Smith)? It can also
be therapeutic to express emotions even anger. Sometimes, you need to let your
frustrations out. If you even have to question God why without undermining God’s
divinity if you are religious. But the important thing is to let it all out.
This is what happened to Howard. He wrote a letter to Death,
Time and Love and they responded… in person?!? It is like a wakeup call. Even
though it happened on Christmas season, Howard was no Scrooge. You can’t blame
Howard for his actions. How did Death, Time and Love deal with Howard? You have
to watch the movie to find out.
The
characters show how each one are connected. Just like dominoes, we are all
affected and fall down and crumble. The movie script has quotable lines and
words of wisdom. This is the most beautiful movie for the start of 201 7. I
highly recommend it. Don’t forget to
bring your handkerchiefs or tissues. Collateral Beauty is distributed and
released by Warner Bros. For more good and quality movie reviews, follow this blog and like L.E.N.S. blogs on Facebook. Opens January 4 in cinemas.
