Heart and Souls (1993)

7/10

A beautiful film about love, loss and second chances.

This fantasy/comedy/drama stars Robert Downey Jr as a business who is reunited with four lost souls and their search for purpose.

Robert Downey Jr is fantastic in this film, making the film both heartfelt and entertaining. I loved the cast and their interaction with one another a lot in this film. Downey Jr for parts of the film had to absorb a different character, and he did so wonderfully.

The storyline, although fairly basic, is captivating and wraps itself with elements of love and humor.

The special effects are worth noting in Heart and Souls, as it is believable without over-doing it.

Recommended for anyone in search of a warm, funny and endearing flick. 8 out of 10:)

The Constant Gardener (2005)

8/10

Haunting, heart felt and mesmerizing.

Beautiful use of the landscapes and a very well knit storyline.

Filled with emotions of love, pain, loss, fear and desperation. The Constant Gardener revolves around a widowers determined attempt to solve the murder of his wife and unveiling an explosive secret in his search.

Beautiful performance by the cast, allowing you to really connect with the characters. Oscar nominated preformance from Ralph Fiennes and Oscar winning performance from Rachel Weisz.

Great use of flashbacks embedded throughout the film, giving you a glimpses of the past and the present.

The film really captures the love and loss Justin (main character) experiences.
