You won't be disappointed!

Lack of good storyline.

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Interesting setup of the story. Good photography, actors are all doing their job, fine. Fine tuning of moments, good observation, though sometimes overtold, resting too much in moments, slowing down, while audience understood already. It is somewhat courageous, I guess, to take on that theme that easily could drift into a different sort of film. Kudos for that. The story of the stock shares/financial heritage problems, plus the dramatic health problem of the lead character is unnecessary in my opinion. The storyteller could have trusted in the "coming of age" of a middle aged woman in a bourgeois environment (stepford wife) , but okay, they went for drama. One thing that is just very distracting, if not disturbing, is the overlaying music which gives it a touch of a , well, Hallmark movie. (maybe it was intended , then nobody wanted anything different, please excuse the remark). A very big compliment to filmmaker for the taste of the scenery and even more to the talent to open up so much for a very touching and realistic love making scene. Thanks for sharing these moments Barbara Niven.

I love movies with great chemistry between excellent actors, excellent writing and directing with music that enhances the movie and its moods. A few of my favorites are Out of Africa, Prince of Tides and Somewhere in Time. Now I can add A Perfect Ending to my list. Nicole Conn and her team bring it all together in this amazing movie. I just watched A Perfect Ending for the third time in about as many weeks and I was just like.... Wow! I cannot believe the exquisite body of work that Barbara Niven put together in that wonderful movie. From start to finish it was just total quality. Barbara aced the part of Rebecca and she was truly meant for that part. It rather seemed as though it was written for her. The vulnerability she portrayed was so real and believable. Barbara is a talented and beautiful lady. As a relative newcomer, Jessica Clark was exquisite and mysterious and yet their characters blended well and had great and unusual chemistry. A Perfect Ending was multi-layered and intriguing and I will likely watch it many times in the future.

Just like the protagonist, watching this film for me was an act of experimentation in a genre i'm not particularly familiar with (LGBT). The reviews describe it as a stunning masterpiece of cinema, but i felt compelled to comment simply to redress the balance.TL;DR: this is a sales pitch for the lesbian lifestyle - targeted at the US middle class - attempting to masquerade as a "deep" film.The pretentiousness and disingenuousness are what stand out the most, but simply the most frustrating point of the whole two hours is that it's misses an incredible opportunity to examine the powerful and interesting issues it so nearly touches on: female sexual dysfunction, the moral ambiguity of prostitution, the awkward navigation of sexual fantasy, the family dynamics of terminal diagnosis, and more. It scrapes the 0.1% sludge off a barrel ten miles deep.This is what it *could* have been, if it weren't such a blatant and craven agenda-driven Trojan horse. It doesn't touch on any of these.The message: being a lesbian is awesome, and you should try it if you're a middle class white housewife. It's the solution of all of a woman's problems, and the only route to true and safe sexual experience, which will ultimately heal you from your emotional repression (see the name of the film). Fulfilling your sexual fantasies is a way to cope with your cancer diagnosis, whilst being surrounded by all the terribly abusive masculine influences in your life you never cared about anyway.How do you know it's a sales pitch? Sales only emphasises one side of an equation: the "beneficial" one the salesperson wants you to buy. Journalistic or cinematic integrity demands both sides are examined. There is no downside to the character's choices.Aside from the horrendous cliché around every corner (straight girl's OMG lesbian besties!, sexually abusive stepfather, noble 2nd career escort, cynical brothel madam, lesbian liberation, ungrateful kids etc), the forced acting, the wooden dialogue, the unlikable characters that are impossible to attach to, the endless piano soundtrack covering up bad background noise over slow-mo porn, the faux/feigned/forced sentiment, the sanctimonious message, the erotica laced with feigned "philosophical" therapy talk, and the almost sociopathic disassociation from a central issue as devastating as terminal cancer, the most redeeming thing about this walking advertisement for gay normalcy is it's done with a degree of tasteful sensitivity and got a well-used switcharoo trope that approaches surprise.If you think this is somehow "deep", you clearly must be the type of insincere person this kind of film appeals to, who thinks it means "slow motion shots with piano". It's pure self- indulgent claptrap with a self-involved character from a self-indulgent director trying to sell pink ideology whilst willfully ignoring the challenging issues it could really have bitten into.If you're going to try to extrapolate a "milf" porn scenario into a serious film, at least add some blowback to decisions and/or make your characters remotely human. You want your audience to actually care if your protagonist dies.Go rent "Milk", "Circumstance", or "Boys Don't Cry" instead.

A Perfect Ending has literally touched me to the very core. I have watched it more times than I care to admit. And yet, after I watch it (once again) it is difficult to express the emotions that it stirs. Then, I find my mind relives the movie and the emotions as I go throughout the subsequent hours. The chemistry between Ms.Niven & Ms. Clark is unsurpassed. Beyond the physical intimacy (that is absolutely beautiful), is the emotional intimacy and life changes they both encounter. This movie has made me fall in love all over again with my partner (if it was possible to love any deeper...)and believe that love really does conquer all. The script is so well written and is worthy of the big screen in every major theater! So many women (and men) simply "exist" without their soul mate. These women found that in each other. God bless Nicole Conn for sharing her passion and gift with the world!
