Title: Horrible Claptrap? Close but not quite...,
Product review: The Cake Eaters is another Lifetime movie of the week in a genre I like to call "I Cry and Cry and then I Die".I don't think this film was deliberately trying to be this trite and maudlin, its just the nature of the beast. The film has the requisite whining, moaning and crying to satisfy lovers of this type of film. And it was directed by the star of many of said Lifetime movies. Plus you have "The Illness" - I call it "Movie-itis"; usually one character in this type of movie has it. It generates more whining and moaning.Watching this movie is like being stuck in a room with a bunch of unhappy housecats, and one of them is sick. You feel bad for wanting to leave the room, but you HAVE to get the HeXX out of there and quick.Want something less hokey, less of a joke? Watch the film "Passengers" - its more honest than this tripe.
