I loved the book and almost did not see the movie based on the reviews. The movie was awesome. If you like tear jerkers have your tissues ready. The acting was superb! Yes the ending was very different from the book... Full review

I was so dissappointed with the movie after reading the book, I think the author must have sold out for alot of money to have the movie changed in the ending, The ending was the whole point of the story.... Full review

These are the people who will most enjoy My Sister's Keeper on DVD.....And for every scene of genuine emotion (Diaz and Patric trying to sell their son on the merits of going away to a special needs school to help his dyslexia -- and failing to hide the obvious truth that they're sending him away because they just don't have time to deal with him), there are a million important plot developments that are glossed over (we're told all of this has taken a toll on the parents' marriage, but see little evidence ...

My Sister's Keeper is thoughtful, well-made and superbly acted....The movie at least has some honesty at the end....Diaz plays the part beautifully, with as much modulation as she can..... ... Full Review
