I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Basic premise and story line, but well done! Solid 6 Stars from me! I like Piper Perabo because she has played in a lesbian role and I support actresses who dare to be different in film because that tells me she supports our community of desire. Of course, Diane Keaton is always perfect for these motherly kind of roles. And I've seen Lauren Graham in other films before. She's very pretty! It's an older chick flick, but still halfway decent to watch.

After 40 minutes - and that was too long already - I had to stop. Otherwise I would have thrown my TV out of the window. 4 women, constantly screaming all at the same time, wildly gesticulating, totally pointless and extremely un-funny dialogues, obviously an attempt to make all those hens coming along extraordinary unique, chaotic and oh so clumsy, yet so lovable - NOT. It was the first movie I just couldn't sit through. THE HORROR. The makers should be seriously ashamed of what they delivered here. I couldn't even have a laugh about how miserable it was. That is all.

It's not the talent or performance of the actors here in question, but the whole concept this movie is based on! It is yet another politically correct production in which feminism is yet again, and very much, in the viewer's face! The core principle of such school of thought is role-reversal under the disguise of gender equality. As in many other and recent motion pictures, female transgressions in a relationship are simply overlooked or forgiven, when the culprit appears to be offering a mere expression of remorse. The trouble is that the same doctrine doesn't let off male perpetrators that easily,at least not before rolling them through all levels of eternal damnation! It preaches this message to women: Not only there's nothing insane about wanting it all, but you can have it all! In real life, the only reason elderly women attract younger, handsome men is their purse or the fact that it's been a long dry season! But here, apparently the younger man is attracted to a senior citizen, whose skin wrinkles in layers! Just how unrealistic does it have to become before the penny drops?

Mandy Moore. America's most sweetheart ever since she debuted in the charts in 1999 as a pop princess singer? WHY did she have to star in this piece of crap is beyond me. I felt so sorry for her here and the only reason I watched this garbage was because of her. Right so in it she plays a girl who is tired of men. She doesn't want to go on dates nor marry them as she went through a bad relationship with a guy who broke her heart in half. So her mother Diane Keaton decides to put matter into her own hands and sets up a dating scheme so that she can find eligible bachelors for her daughter to fall in love with. So she comes across one who is just the right match but Moore's charcther falls for a former guitar player and his father falls for Moore's charcther's MOTHER???Oh well I guess you can spot this A MILE AWAY as to what is going to happen next. Bottom line this is not worth watching and if you want my advice watch Moore in Tangled and A Walk To Remember these two films show how great she is as both an actress AND a singer.
