- Synopsis
- When David (Mark Ruffalo) rented his quaint San Francisco apartment, the last thing he expected -or wanted- was a roommate. He had only begun to make a complete mess of the place when a pretty but decidedly controlling young woman named Elizabeth suddenly (Reese Witherspoon) shows up, adamantly insisting the apartment is hers. David assumes there's a giant misunderstanding... until Elizabeth disappears as mysteriously as she appeared. Changing the locks does nothing to deter Elizabeth, who begins to appear and disappear at will—mostly to rebuke David for his personal living habits in her apartment. Convinced that she is a ghost, David tries to help Elizabeth cross over to the “other side.” But while Elizabeth has discovered she does have a distinctly ethereal quality—she can walk through walls—she is equally convinced that she is somehow still alive and isn’t crossing over anywhere. As Elizabeth and David search for the truth about who Elizabeth is and how she came to be in her present state, their relationship deepens into love. Unfortunately, they have very little time before their prospects for a future together permanently fade away.
- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Crossing the life-death divide, Reese Witherspoon and Mark Ruffalo are a winning pair in this smart and tender comedy."
-
"There are moments when it is possible, with effort, to forget the plot and its tired premise and enjoy Witherspoon and Ruffalo's chemistry and imagine they are in another movie. But never for long."
-
"That Just Like Heaven succeeds at all - at least for teenage girls with limited interest in the drafting of living wills - is due entirely to Witherspoon's can-do charisma."
-
"The last half is so superior to the first that you wish they'd rethought the whole thing and devised a way to make it more of a one piece"
-
"A huge waste of talent (Witherspoon's) and time (ours)"
