5/5 Good to watch for many reasons
  by Curt Remmel (New York)
This movie has phenomenal acting from four lead actors and actresses, a thing that is hard to find in almost any movie. Jack Nicholson is hilarious, he plays his role to perfection, expect his same old acting, but on a slightly higher scale, his Oscar was deserved. Jeff Daniel shines from start to finish, at the end his silence and staring says more than words ever could, great. Debra Winger is the main character, she is great at the beginning and holds her own the entire movie. Shirley MacLaine is probably the greatest character in this movie, she can be funny, serious, annoying, undesirable, desirable, and cruel. This is a good movie to watch, it could inspire a few people on how to make movies, what you would have done differently and such, a lot to learn from this picture. Rent it, you will not be dissapointed.

2/5 Weepiest chick flick ever
  by Roger J. Buffington (Huntington Beach, CA United States)
This is the ultimate weepy chick flick. I have always disliked Debora Winger, and this flick is most of the reason. Even Jack Nicholson could not save this bomb. Despite what amounts to an all-star cast, this one is destined to live in infamy. This is a terrible movie.

A gal I was dating dragged me to this flick decades ago. I never forgave her and rightly not. The only movie I've ever seen that was worse than this one was "Yentl" which the same woman inveigled me into seeing. A worse bomb than Yentl has never graced the Silver Screen, but TOD comes close enough. Ghastly.

5/5 A Classic
  by Jeffrey Stone
What can you say...This is a classic. Buy it with the second chapter, "The Evening Star" And you have 4 hours of laughter and tears. Do yourself a favor and buy both, you wont be sorry.
