Customer Reviews of Life as a House (New Line Platinum Series)
Tear Jerker Everyone in my household, cried throughout this whole film. It was extremely moving. The second time we watched it we cried a bit less. Still its a very enjoyable movie.
family drama
Kevin Kline plays a father learning to live with his mistakes and trying to connect with his addicted,near suicidal,son and estranged wife while dealing with his oncoming death.<

>Using a house as a metaphor in tearing down then rebuilding his family was very clever and allowed a family dynamic to be studied during reconstruction.<
><
>The cast made this story very sentimental but with a strong portrayal of their faults.<
><
>I highly recommend this movie.
Why you'll love Life as a House ... if you're over 40!
Sure, people discovered Hayden Christensen after it was announced that he was Darth Vader. But some of us saw him before that in "Life as a House," which is NOT about teen angst but more about aging and regret. Kevin Kline is brilliant as a frustrated architect at the end of his life, trying to correct a life littered with mistakes: career, family, personal feelings. The story chronicles his attempts to reconnect with his estranged son, makes amends to his ex-wife and leave behind something positive and tangible to record his presence on earth. There's laughter, tears and a lot of catharsis.
