Title: Save your Money... I'll sell you mine cheap ;-)
Review: It was hard to watch this movie without critiquing Kate Hudson. She was too cutesy to pull it off. It got annoying after awhile. About the only value she added was occasional big smiles that reminded us of her famous Mom. My husband and I usually love John Corbett but we felt he could've contributed more to this film than he did. The chemistry wasn't present between the two main characters and Kate's "I'm so cute" persona just made us squirm. The children were much better... and we believe the real star power of this movie was Joan Cusack. Go Joan! The sad part is it could've been a really good movie, with some more thoughtful casting, directing and story flow. Lots of holes. Kate wasn't believable as a savvy administrative assistant. But Helen Mirren as the model agency owner was fun... except her character lost credibility for tolerating all the sloppiness of Kate's character. I'm giving it two stars because we didn't fall asleep while watching it.
