If the rehab system is like that it's no wonder why so many fail at getting clean from whatever they are addicted to (which is their fault to begin with!!!!)! As for the movie, it is okay. Sandra Bullock is great... Full review

Seriously this is a great film, but a serious subject tackled in a humerous way. Sandra Bullock is believeable as an addict in this film and that what makes it work so well. The storyline basically is that her booze filled... Full review

The entire cast is wonderful Viggo Mortensen, Elisabeth Perkins and Dominc West very different characters whose very differences form an impact.
Sandra Bullock is utterly convincing as the party girl, whose wild ways harbour the deep emotional pain she is desperately trying to forget.

Days shows two important thingsacting strength and the willingness to play down her looks (she comes off positively dowdy through most of the film)that indicate there's much more to Sandra Bullock than most of her career choices have indicated.
West plays deeply shallow with a charm that makes it impossible to truly dislike the character, though clearly he's a twit.

Now, I don't have kids-Hell, I don't have a wife-and I know I wouldn't be a perfect parent, and I'd make mistakes like any parent does-but I have to believe that, even on my worst days, I wouldn't take my 6-year old child to see Saving Private Ryan or Schindler's List or 28 Days on a Saturday night, any night of the week or any day of the week, for that matter. ...

Verdict: Big-yuks comedy and social conscience drama don't sit well together and this is movie with a serious identity problem.
Steve Buscemi's criminally wasted in a near cameo as Bullock's counsellor, but Thomas manages to milk every predictable laugh from the rest of the ensemble.

I recall reading a review that hailed 28 Days as a very laughable comedy.
This film is so depressing it could, well, drive a person to drink.
At least, that was the word that kept surfacing in my mind as I watched this duller-than-dirt drama.
