The film opens with a narrated disclaimer over footage of an opening coffin. The narrator explains that the film's climax is so terrifying that it may kill the viewer, and reassures the audience that if they die of fright while watching the film, they will receive a free burial service, and it closes on the casket which has a card inside reading "Reserved for You."[1]
Newlyweds Jenni (Peggy Webber) and Eric (John Hudson) move into Eric's palatial country home. Jenni is Eric's second wife; his first wife Marion died when she accidentally slipped and hit her head on the edge of a decorative pond on the estate. At the home they meet Eric's friends, the Reverend Snow (Russ Conway) and his wife (Toni Johnson), as well as Mickey (Alex Nicol), the developmentally disabled gardener. Eric privately mentions to the Snows that Jenni spent time in an asylum following the sudden death of both her parents, and Mrs. Snow reveals that Jenni is very wealthy.
Jenni is disturbed both by Mickey's belief that Marion's ghost wanders the estate and by Marion's self-portrait inside the house, which Jenni believes resembles her mother. When she begins to hear unexplained screaming noises and see skulls around her house, she believes that Marion is haunting her. Though Eric speculates to Jenni that Mickey, who was a childhood friend of Marion and thus dislikes Jenni, may be behind the trickery, Jenni worries that she is going insane. Eric then suggests to remove Marion's self-portrait from the home. Eric and Jenni take the painting outside and burn it. While they clean up the remains of the painting, a skull emerges from the ashes. While Jenni panics at the sight of the skull, Eric denies that the skull is there. Jenni faints and Eric withdraws the skull and hides it, revealing that he was responsible for the trickery all along in an effort to get hold of her wealth.
Believing she has finally lost her sanity, Jenni resolves to be committed. She tells Eric that the entire property will be meticulously searched for the skull as a last resort. Before Eric can retrieve it, Mickey secretly steals the skull and brings it to the Reverend, revealing Eric's plans. That night, Eric prepares to murder Jenni and stage it as a suicide. Jenni sees Marion's ghost in Mickey's greenhouse and flees back to the house. When she enters, Eric begins throttling her. The ghost then appears and chases Eric outside and about the property; it finally corners and attacks him, drowning him in the decorative pond.
After Jenni regains consciousness, the Snows arrive. Mrs. Snow comforts a hysterical Jenni and the Reverend discovers Eric's body in the pond. Some undisclosed time later, Jenni and the Snows depart from the house. Reverend Snow declares whether or not Marion's death was an accident will remain a mystery.
不评价，反正不好看。但这个大叔也太帅了吧，痛苦与荣耀里他就很帅啊，烈焰焚币他年轻的时候更帅到惨绝人寰。
肉体的欢愉中夹着无影不在的孤独和迷失。男主终于正面背面全裸，让男女观众大饱眼福，可惜再帅的美男也抵挡不住岁月的无情，水桶腰多少要扣掉1分，哈哈哈。
与其叫流浪的心，还是心猿意马好。男主陷入的与其说是中年危机，不如说是自己内心多重的困境与责任叠加。家庭与自我的纠葛，生活与精神的纠缠，让他需要一段时间去治愈，男主好帅，摄影的调色很爱。
剧本太tm水了～两个主演明明是有潜力可塑的，可自带的气质与角色气质完全不对路～
开场的感觉很好，慢慢的发觉男主角这个人物的心理层次不清晰，基本上就是原地打转的状态，到了第三幕，用死亡，打架和争吵这些套路化的情节来处理人物的问题，强行让人物转变，显得不够真诚，导演套路化的给出一个情境，下一秒就立刻解决了问题。不过莱昂纳多·斯巴拉格利亚这次的表演够卖力了，直接泳池边甩Dior摇摆，大叔人到中年还是这么美，不明白为什么他身边的小鲜肉瞧不上他，帅成这样有什么可中年危机的，太不科学了，他这种外型来演这种角色，我不信。
what's up with the manic pixie dream girl trope
帅哥禁得起怼脸直拍啊 人到中年满地鸡毛 但生活还是得继续 激情戏唯美 送走女儿之后那段很感人
再也说不出“称霸涉谷”那样的话了，只是一个穿行在涉谷的默默的社会人，当时平淡无奇的重复聚会，如今回忆起已是珍贵的“奇妙一刻”。
某些角度像贾静雯怎么说
和自己和解，和生活和解。男神 Leonardo Sbaraglia依舊非常迷人。
情绪倒也算真挚，但后半女主就跟死了似的。另，黑岛和这个角色的契合度是真低。
怎么可以把情侣间同生共死的情话说的那么清新脱俗呢？
莱昂纳多依然帅爆——50往上了….演技是真的好，每帧对脸拍的表情细节真实、令人共情，本子弱了点….这样的人生困境时时都有，不分肤色地区，不要太清醒，跟着感觉走就是了……3星
一个失意的中年人，在不得志的人生中艰难而困苦地寻找自己，寻找生活的意义，然而最终他未能得到求索的答案，却失去了人生中难能可贵的亲情和爱情……故事很简单，电影节奏也很舒缓，南美电影中善于突出的风格大胆也都丝毫不差，只是一个中年大叔在恋爱中表现出来的少女感真的让人难以入目，或许也和南美洲人的性格有关，但这份少女感确实有些油腻，也是这部电影我不太感兴趣的关键。
挺好看的，接地气，作为电影可能不够有逼格作为喜剧小品还是可以看下图个乐
原来以为是花束 有反转还是挺好的。总体比较平淡
46/100。直到最后半个小时才逐渐理解了男主人公玩世不恭的外表下脆弱不堪的内里，当那些生活中所有最接近的美好突然消逝的瞬间，那颗看起来流浪的心终会体验到不可扭转的疼痛，才能更好学着过完未来的人生。然而影片的前四分之三虽然回想起来确实能够体现出男主人公的生活态度，但具体呈现上真的让人难以忍受，晃动不安的镜头、吵闹喧哗的配乐、具有挑衅意味的某些情节实在让人吃不下去。不过男主角演技确实了得，尤其是那场和女儿的餐桌撕逼戏，两人句句高能，让人大呼过瘾。
有些话说出来比做到容易，孤独是无可治愈的顽疾。每个人都有问题，“大脑中一直有什么静不下来”，每当认真检视自己的内心，发现从来不能在任何亲密关系里得到真正想要的。男主角圣地亚哥只擅长维持一夜情关系，父女关系、爱人关系，全都一塌糊涂，甚至3P之后，一夜情关系也差点翻车。向海滩情侣交代心事，尽情感受肉体之乐，对比别墅派对擅自狂欢，扰了爱人的清静，该果决时没那么果决，该细腻时没那么细腻。流浪的心啊，想装下整个世界，却只是流于表面的走马观花。男主角没什么成长点，或许导演想呈现的就是庸常生活里人渴求改变又故步自封的状态，看完只想对空气怒挥几拳。镜头色彩颇有质感，莱拉和她的妈妈两位女性角色很美，莱拉跳舞，以及后面妈妈弹奏钢琴的段落，点睛之笔，钟罩蝴蝶一般的美丽疏离。
每次遇到自我的矛盾，克制情绪，爆发，都会选择逃避，却也渴望亲密的关系。
浮华生活下尽是空虚寂寞与痛苦，想握住所有的爱却在不断失去怎么也握不住，嗑药酒精性长伴于身，虽能麻痹自己却难以支撑。最后才发现一切源自童年的阴影，幼年的伤疤一直延伸到成年之后，难以和解，处处破碎。又是一部那种看完要抑郁一阵子的电影，实在是太难受了！
