Quartile rating: 7.5/10 · 1 rating
The friendship between two life-long girlfriends is put to the test when one starts a family and the other falls ill.
Miss You Already is a well-acted female friendship drama elevated by strong performances from Drew Barrymore and Toni Collette, who bring genuine emotional depth to their roles. The plot follows a familiar cancer-friendship narrative arc without significant subversion, keeping it solidly functional but not groundbreaking. Cinematography is competent and warm but unremarkable. Novelty is limited as the terminal illness and best-friend drama genre is well-trodden, and the film doesn't offer a distinctively fresh angle. The ending is emotionally earned if somewhat predictable, landing with quiet sincerity rather than surprise.
