COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Good Movie submitted by Beth Manuel on August 13, 2015, 1:58pm Jennifer Aniston portrayed this irritating, drug addled woman with chronic pain who battles her addiction along with hallucinations. As it it turns out, she is trying to cope with the tragic loss that sent her world spiraling out of control in the first place. I give it two thumbs up. At the end, when they finally showed a cake I felt like te film came full circle.

Good submitted by wgregory on July 31, 2016, 4:29pm Riveting story with surreal and slow-paced moments. Clear picture of humanity in struggle.

Meh submitted by mandevil on September 16, 2016, 8:30am a real downer at the start- couldn't go any further than 10 minutes

Cake submitted by a2sue on August 1, 2017, 4:43pm Jennifer Aniston gave a riveting performance in Cake. She's really an outstanding actress.

Touching submitted by Xris on July 4, 2018, 3:19pm Finding out what's behind her pain is why you keep watching this movie. She did a great job of portraying a person with chronic pain. It made me teary.
