I'll admit I thought this would be more of a comedy at first glance seeing Jim Rash (the Dean from Community) writing and directing. But I see he's quite skilled at delivering drama as well. A quiet movie about multiple kinds of grief.

This film is one of the few films that should be used as a litmus test to see if one appreciates good movies.  My god, this film is amazing.   First, the performances.  Janney might be the most under-appreciated actress out there.  It is a shame that she had to waste so many years on dopey sitcoms.   Towards the end of the film, the other lead gets to spread his wings and really show some range.   And as luck would have it, the script gives the two leads plenty of meat on the proverbial bone.   There are layers upon layers, and I found myself thinking about the film long after it had finished.   I also found myself doing something that I rarely do:  I rooted for an outcome.  Of course, the film didn't give me that outcome, and it was better for it.  The film was just so raw and powerful (and often very funny) - I actually found myself rooting for a Hallmark ending, and that is something that I never do (and thankfully, it had the perfect ending).  I can't wait to watch it again.   follow me at https://IHATEBadMovies.com or facebook IHATEBadMovies

Miss You, Love You is a decent slow-burn drama that succeeds more through its emotional approach than any major plot developments. It takes its time, allows its characters room to breathe, and trusts the audience to connect with the emotions rather than relying on constant twists or dramatic moments. That's also why it isn't entirely my typical cup of tea. The pacing is deliberate, and viewers looking for a more eventful or energetic story may struggle with it. However, for the audience that enjoys character-driven dramas and emotional storytelling, I can easily see this becoming a favorite. Even though it didn't completely align with my usual tastes, I appreciated what it was trying to do and found it effective enough to stay invested throughout. It's the kind of movie that knows exactly who it's made for. Rating: 3/5 – 75% – Worth Watching

Beautiful performances by both Janney and Rannells. A brilliantly written study of grief so on many levels. Break out the tissues before diving into this one. Loved it.

Ouch . . . . the extra words they
