- Synopsis
- Television news reporter Lanie Kerrigan (Anglina Jolie) thinks her life is perfect - - perfect job, perfect apartment, perfect wardrobe, perfect boyfriend. But her "perfect" world starts unravelling after a homeless street seer (Tony Shalhoub) tells Lanie that she leads a meaningless existence, and will die the following week. When the savant's other predictions come true, Lanie begins to re-examine her life and priorities, all in a whirlwind one-week period. As if things weren't crazy enough for Lanie, romantic sparks fly as she reluctantly teams with a cameraman (Edward Burns) with whom she has long been at odds.

2002: Nominated for Razzie Awards: Worst Actress (Angelina Jolie)
- Critics' reviews
-
-
"It's dispiriting to see Jolie wasting herself (and a good supporting cast) on a story that requires little more than an average pretty actress who can wear clothes well"
-
"Affable, but, as something with more ambition, it disappoints. Herek has once again found the feel-good path to mediocrity."
-
"A banal message movie"
-
"A deeply metaphysical film by contempo Hollywood standards, this middlebrow trifle may engage the emotions of a certain tier of young professional women"
-
"Partly a schmaltzy, by-the-numbers romantic comedy, partly a shallow rumination on the emptiness of success -- and entirely soulless"
-
"The relentless upbeatness of Life or Something Like It wrecks the possibility of either real laughter or genuine pathos."
-
"It's difficult to concentrate on the story. Not that there's much to concentrate on anyway."
