Amazon.com:
Queen Latifah demonstrates her loose, easy charm in Last Holiday, a remake of the 1950 comedy with Alec Guinness. Though at first glance it's hard to imagine anyone less like Alec Guinness than Queen Latifah, they both communicate a world of inner thought with nothing more than a sly sideways glance. Georgia Byrd (Latifah), a department store employee, leads a life of frustrated desires--particularly for a bashful salesman from the outdoor furnishings department (LL Cool J, Deep Blue Sea). But when she learns she only has a few weeks left to live, Georgia gathers her money, quits her job, and flies to a swank European resort she's always dreamed of visiting. Naturally, her new carelessness with money and fearless candor lead everyone around her--including her senator (Giancarlo Esposito, Do The Right Thing) and her former boss (Timothy Hutton, Ordinary People)--to think she's a mover and shaker. Last Holiday unfolds the way you expect it to (dozens of movies and TV shows have similar plots), but Latifah and the capable cast keep it alive. Also featuring Alicia Witt (The Upside of Anger), Jane Adams (Happiness), and the ever-dependable Gerard Depardieu (Cyrano de Bergerac) as a passionate chef. --Bret Fetzer

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Warm & fun
I readily join the many ranks of reviewers here who thoroughly enjoyed this movie. Buying it sight unseen at a super discounted price, I was happily surprised at this lighthearted movie that had moments of soul-touching depth. Successfully consistent in tone, nice performances by all the majors (and even the minor actors), and competent production, I guarantee this is it's one I'll watch over and over again!

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - My "Happy Place" movie!
Love this movie. Always enjoy Queen Latifah, but this is my favorite. It's the movie I watch when I'm blue, and it never fails to lift my mood and inspire me to move on. Really fun, really positive ~ and BONUS! Gérard Depardieu!
