Theater release? No, it isn't that kind of movie. It's a small movie. BTW, I finally "got" DLM. It took a while. The whole thing, series and movie, is a metaphor for Corporate America. The movie is priceless in that regard. I was hoping it would not be the same as the series. That ended in the graveyard with George walking away after seeing her sister on All Saints Day. The movie needed to break with the series or it would have been just another DLM show. It isn't. BTW, Britt McKillip is gorgeous! She is turning into a stunning young woman.

I just finished watching the movie and it was really good but they replaced daisy with another actress which made it a bit odd. I really wish they would put the show back on i would watch it again for sure. I liked the movie but it left me wondering what was gonna happen next. Hope there is more to come. i love the show and really wish that it would come back on i caught it on sci marathon the other day and spent the day watching it all over again.

I love the TV show, it was great, I have just hope the movie would give a nice ending to it. Daisy Adair, one adore, polite, very classy lady character has been replaced. I wish the character hasn't been replaced, yet, if it has to be done this way, let it be. However, since Ms. Laura Harris has already built a well-known character on Daisy, shouldn't Ms. Sarah Wynter try to react how Daisy should be in the TV series? Instead, Ms. Sarah Wynter has rebuilt a brand new character to Daisy, and all the sudden Daisy is a new character to us, fans, who are deeply disappointed. The plot is very not clear on why it has to bring out Cameron and what is the point of him. I believe that each grim reaper would know why they shouldn't go against the rules after their first few reaps, according to the first few episodes on the TV show. It not making any sense that they would go try something against the rules this days. Even so, they do, there got to be an explanation for us, let us know what on earth is Cameron trying to do. None of that has shown up. Or it did, I have not paying attention 45 min after it started. Yes, it's that bad, I don't want to bare with it, I want to fast forward already. Ms. Ellen Muth, I don't know what happened to you, but you really did age a lot, you need to take care of yourself, if by any chance you get to see this. Lastly, I regret that I watched this movie. big disappointment.

I was very disappointed. Might as well have burned the $20 I spent for the DVD. The script was very poor. Where were the quirky ways that people died or interesting characters? This reminded me of the Brady Bunch reunion. If there was any chance of reviving the series, this movie will put the final nail in the coffin. Just finished watching the Movie version.

It is horrible! I can’t believe this even got the name “dead like me”. Daisy isn’t even daisy anymore. She is now played by an actress that CAN NOT ACT! Half of the crew is not the same. I don’t even think George is the same. It’s bad, I wish I never seen it. It ruined the show. I have no words on how bad this was. All I want to say is that I want a refund!!!!!

Daisy Adair as played by Sarah Wynters is a COMPLETELY different character retaining none of the traits that drove her character through the series. The new Cameron character doesn't make any SENSE. None of the regular characters even act like themselves. Frankly, I thought the series ended quite well - anyone catching up on them can just skip this movie.

I can't see it until February. So then was it Laura Harris in the movie or the other chick? I sure hope you watched it. I want to know sooo bad. We don’t have that channel in the states.
