Rabbit Hole (8/10)

"Rabbit Hole" plays it smart, it chooses to focus on life and not death. The film starts 8 months after the death of their son, a couple (Nicole Kidman and Aaron Eckhart) is trying to coup with moving on. Becca is trying to move past her son because the memories are too painful. Howie wants to deal with the sadness and try to be happy again. Both look at how to deal differently and so the audience gets two sides to view. The film is not as depressing as the summary makes it sound. It's a drama but there are scenes of humor and life as well. There's a scene I laughed at more then any recent comedy. The acting is great all around as well. Rabbit Hole is a fresh take on a old school story. It does very good work.

8/10
Recommendation: It's dramatic but not entirely. It's very good all around.
