A corny movie, but touching and sweet

This one was a little different than I thought. It had a decent story and I was pleasantly surprised. I found it a little slow at times; it had it's good and bad parts.It's a movie of healing for lost loved ones in your life and it walks you through the paces of grief.Jennifer Aniston is magical.it was more about grieving and getting over the death of a loved one then it was about love. Aaron Eckhart was the perfect match for Aniston in this movie there was this huge chemistry between them love it. Brandon Camp's directing was OK but the story could have been better though.Watch it together or alone there is no difference but watch it for sure!
