28 Days Ratings & Reviews
- Fin7457 januari 2026Love the movie highly recommended!
- Recordedsnake28 oktober 2025Sandra Bullock shines in this touching mix of drama and dark humor about addiction and recovery. Her performance as Gwen is honest, funny, and moving, making 28 Days a powerful story of hitting rock bottom and finding hope again.
- Jeremey13 juli 2025"Look, I’m not saying we’re soulmates... I’m just saying I’d relapse with you." So... 28 days. I learned that wine isn’t a food group. And that “Look at my package!” isn’t technically therapy, but it might be close. I learned that if you roll your eyes just right, you can still hear people. I learned that some people in here are annoying, and some are brilliant, and some are both depending on the group activity. I learned that falling down doesn’t always mean failure. Sometimes it just means you finally sat still long enough to feel something. I also learned that horses don’t care if you’re sarcastic. I’m still me. But maybe a little less blurry. And hey — if I ever relapse, I’ll do it with better shoes.
- ርልዪረ2 februari 2025This must be one Sandra Bullock's best film roles. It begins in a very hillarious way. She plays Gwen Cummings, a writer and fun loving, drinking, party and pill-popping clubber, with her English boy friend Jasper, played by Dominic West, and a boistrous group of friends. They drink in the taxi, in the locomotive bar, and devastate her sister Lily's wedding, with Gwen finally falling all over the Wedding cake. This is all done in fine style with Sandra Bullock funny, sexy, and beautiful all at the same time. Is this going to be a film about one drunken excess upon another? No, after trying to shop for a new cake and crashing the Wedding Limo, Gwen is sentenced to 28 Days at a lakeside Rehab Centre. The film takes on a serious undertone, exploring some of the characters in the centre, and in spite of Jasper's disruptive visits, and his proposal of marriage, Gwen finally accepts the therapy and the chance to 'dry herself out' and leave her old lifestyle. With help of counsellor Cornell (Steve Buscemi) she realises that she has the natural ability to help other people through their difficulties even after her 28 Days are over. All the characters have an ammusing side, and there is a spoof Soap Opera 'Santa Cruz' within the film that the inmates watch. In the Illuminating Special Features there are interviews with all the cast and crew, and Director Betty Thomas. There are even instructions on how to make a 'gum wrapper' paper chain, which Gwen makes to ease her frustrations in rehab. They are allowed sweets and gum to stave off their cravings for other substances, as well as Horse therepy.
