Movie Description
New York City newspaper reporter Gwen Cummings (Sandra Bullock) likes to party. But at her sister Lily's (Elizabeth Perkins) wedding, she parties a little too much, makes a spectacle of herself, and ends up driving a commandeered limousine into a neighbor's front porch. In lieu of prison, Gwen is sent to a rehabilitation program at Serenity Glen, where cell phones are banned and patients chant for inspiration. Surrounded by other addicts, Gwen finds herself dealing with personal issues she has denied for years. Eventually, she realizes that in living under a cloud of alcohol, she wasn't truly living. Dapper Brit Dominic West plays Jasper, Gwen's charming partner in love and partying, and Viggo Mortensen appears as her potential love interest, Eddie Boone, a professional baseball player with an addiction to booze and women. Betty Thomas, known more for her work directing comedies (THE BRADY BUNCH MOVIE, PRIVATE PARTS), guides 28 DAYS with the hand of an assured dramatist. Perennial good girl Bullock is surprisingly believable as a party girl in need of a wake-up call.

    This is such a good movie, if you haven't seen it yet, you really should. It has drama and comedy rolled in one. While there are some funny parts the movie does deal with an important topic. This is probably one of my favorites of Sandra Bullock's movies. She does a great job in this movie and so do all the other actors. I was surprise to see Viggo Mortensen (from the Lord of the Rings series) in this movie. The ending is great also in this movie. Must see!

    "28 Days" with Sanda Bullock is a story about an alcoholic woman who is sent to rehab after ruining her sister's wedding.
    She goes through many trials and learns that selfishness won't get her anywhere in life and will never make her happy.
    This movie is actually pretty boring, as the story never picks up and the ending is bittersweet.
    If you're in for something with tons of laughs and comedic value, this movie is not for you.
