I saw this movie while in a hospital in 2014 recovering from a NDE brought about by severe pneumonia that came shin 6 hours of killing me and had the doctors telling me family I had a 10% chance of survival and would likely not come out of the coma I was in for 13 days.

I was in a state of impaired  consciousness when I watched this so can't really say if it was a good or bad movie. I have Been tempted to rewatch it but given the circumstances I saw it under I donct want to rick it triggering a flashbackto traumatic times.

Anyone see it while not slowly recovering from a severe illness and can judge it more impartialy than  l my than I can?

How weird, I saw this movie early in 2010, days before being told I was also likely to be dead in a short while, changing much of my life around and altering my priorities and outlook to this day. Like you my memories of it are mangled and it's always felt cursed, so I've never re-watched it. From what I remember it was not very good.

Pneumonia almost got me, what was threatening your life?

Through work I came into contact with something deadly.

I actually thought it was a pretty good little dark fantasy . . . not too dark, since it was targeted at kids, but darker than the average animated flick.
My daughters loved it!

Well I hope whatever it was had no lingering effects or was carcinogenic.

Thank you.

It did change parts of how my life is lived, in some ways good, like how it concentrated my thoughts and made me define what was most important to me, inspiring me to reach out toward God and getting a remarkable sense of peace from doing that, and also making me more appreciative of every minute of life with those I love. Up til then I was still young enough to think in terms of decades ahead, still slightly sheltered by the bulletproof nature of youth, and then in one day that changed.

Then again living with this knowledge also intrudes and disrupts and deprives me of how things could otherwise be, but back then when my employers came and dumped this information on me and a team of others I worked with, telling us in effect, make your peace, this is bad, I decided I'd go on as normally as possible, which I think I have.

I got married a month after I was told about this (yeah, being handed a probable death sentence when you're getting married and you have a toddler, wow, huh?), and have traveled to Brazil, to Europe, had two more children, still mostly do what I want and live normally, stay active, play tennis, run, swim a mile at least once a week in the summer, and except for unrelated skin cancer last year I feel perfectly healthy. I've made new friends since then, I write, go on, push it out of my mind most days, but I also know there's a good chance I'll die because of this thing I'm writing about, and that can sometimes cloud life. I will be in a happy moment with my children and it'll hit me....because of such a stupid thing beyond my control I may not be there with them when they're older.

If I do die from this I have the consolation of knowing it will likely be sudden, though probably not painless, ha, then again, considering we were not given tall odds of seeing in 2011 and I'm still here in 2019, I may live another fifty years, time will tell. Ultimately no one here gets out alive, and yet it's still within people to have amazing lives despite our mortality.

(Does that sound dumb?)

BTW if what happened to you was work related I hope you were covered by your employers insurance or workman's comp and not financially devastated.
