Life As A House takes you into the life of a broken family scarred by there own mistakes and trials. In the beginning of the movie the father(Kevin Kline) finds out that he is dying from cancer. Realizing this he does two things: Builds a new house and forces his out of control son to spend the summer with him. The son, played by Hayden Christennsen, is a drug addicted, confused child wanting desperately for healing in his life. As the movie plays out several other people come into the picture as the summer flys by and the house gets built. But what is the important thing being taught in this movie? You have to watch it for yourself and be blown away by how profound it is!

This is a great movie. Funny, yet heart warming. Some mature content, you might need to explain to youngsters.

One can't miss the symbolic nature of this flick. When the movie's hero discovers he doesn't have long to live, he reaches out to repair the damaged relationship. Through building a house with his son, love wins out, creating a greater meaning for all involved. Highly Recommended.

I loved the movie because it showed a family coming together to build the dream house. It was just good all around. I decided to buy it because my neighbor had told me it was a good movie and thought I would like it. She said it would probably be hard to find in stores. It sounded good to me so I bought it.

I LOVED this movie. it's about the coming together of a father & son while they build a house together. Men & Women will love this movie, but watch out it's a tear jerker. EXCELLENT actors & actresses, people you will reconize. I can't say enough good about this movie . The title is a analogy of LIFE. GET IT, SEE IT & PASS IT ON TO BE SHARED.

  Still haven't received this purchase

I purchased this movie in early may and still have not received it. It was sent out but i had moved and was returned undeliverable. I immediately emailed my new address, but still have not received this. I wouldn't mind this situation if the seller would communicate regarding the status of this shipment. After all they were paid for the purchase in early may. Thankfully this item did not cost a lot of money or I would be furious by this point. I've emailed again asking if I am still going to receive the DVD.

I bought this DVD because it is a family favorite and our copy was no longer good due to excessive viewing. Although we have not seen the movie in a couple years my teenage kids and I are really looking forward to watching it again and are hoping we receive it sooner than later. Even with the mix up in shipping I don't believe this should be taking over a month now.

  Dad liked it! Buy it for yours!
Review created: 02/26/08

This movie is really awesome particularly because the characters are interesting and complex. I love it. My dad really loved it too, so you may concider watching it with your dad or mom, or buying it for them as a present. It is funny and cute, but also a tear jerker. I recommend this movie. Kevin Kline and Hayden Christensen do great jobs in this film. The few bonus features are also nice to have. I highly recommend this movie!!!

  Awesome movie
Review created: 02/14/08

Great flick. A moving experience of how dysfunction can function in a relational discourse. Touching saga of contemporary American family dynamics. wonderful and moving representation of an upper middle class family that moves toward redefining and repairing their lives together despite losing someone.

This movie is incredible. It really speaks to you about the importance of family and friends. It's a cheesy movie that your parents would want you to watch but you will because it is halarious and captivating all at the same time.

Review created: 12/07/07

This movie is close to what the title says. It shows how life is based on having strong "foundations" and when you do have strong foundations, family becomes just that a family.
Highly suggest taking time to watch this, will make your top movie list to watch and watch.

I loved this movie...great cast...Kevin Kline at his best...Hayden Christensen shows his versatility as an upcoming super-star. This guy will top Harrison Ford as #1 box office draw in the near future.
Fantastic story line...so realistic... a must see for everyone that believes in: "Where there's life, there is hope".

I've seen this movie in the past and just fell in love with it. I wanted to add it to my own movie library as it is one of those movies I can watch over and over again and take away a new life learned experience. A must have for every movie enthusiast.

  Little-known title but deserves more!
Review created: 01/04/07
by:

Life as a House is one of the best movies I've seen. I'm fairly picky about what I like in movies, especially dramas. Some are so over-the-top with emotion that it's almost cheesy. This movie, however, has found the balance between story-telling and emotion, drawing the viewer in and making him/her feel for the characters.
Outstanding performances by the entire cast. There's not one that I could single out.
Heart-felt and touching, while dealing with big issues such as death, drug abuse, cancer, divorce, and what family truly means, among others. All done in a sensitive manner without sensationalizing any issue.
Life as a House will make you both laugh and cry.
