Een succesvolle New Yorkse reclameman raakt door een tragedie diep in de put. Terwijl zijn vrienden zich ernstig zorgen maken om zijn welzijn, probeert hij antwoorden te krijgen vanuit het universum door brieven te schrijven naar Liefde, Tijd en Dood. Pas op het moment dat er onverwacht persoonlijke reacties komen op zijn brieven, begint hij langzaam te begrijpen hoe deze elementen met elkaar verbonden zijn in het leven en ontdekt hij dat er zelfs in tijden van groot verlies ook mooie momenten van betekenis en schoonheid kunnen zijn.

Collateral Beauty lured most viewers in with an amazing cast and confusing trailers that enticed them to see a slightly different film than the one we were served. At least that's how it was for me. I can't say that it was an outright bad film, but I guess I was probably expecting a slightly stronger story that would have moved me more and not forced me to sympathize with the main character Howard too blatantly. Which is a shame in the end, considering the presence of themes like the death of offspring or the musings on the three instances of Love, Death and Time. In short, it's a film that stands mainly on its cast, but which is undermined by a somewhat muddled script.

A fairytale built upon artificial foundations. Even though all of the characters go through their own small or big personal crisis or tragedy, in the end, there’s nothing the superstar actor trio couldn’t handle! Not only Collateral Beauty’s creators rely on relentlessly milking emotions out of the audience, the viewer is downright turned into an idiot by the way some stories end up. Watching this movie, I think I was in greater pain than some of the main characters.

A typical American drama featuring a parade of American actors and emotions that couldn’t be more artificial. Unfortunately.

Sure, it's a tearjerker, and sure, it's meant to squeeze some emotions and a bunch of tears out of you, but in my case, it just didn't work. On the one hand, it is due to the excellent cast, where I enjoyed every actor, on the other hand, there was a surprise in the plot, which I somehow just did not expect, which made it all the more interesting.
