A fun but eminently forgettable film.

One of those formulaic romantic comedies designed for the Mother’s Day season, this
is so predictable you can tell from the opening what the final scene will be.

A bubbly Diane Keaton plays partnerless mum to a gaggle of feisty adult daughters played by singer Mandy Moore, Gilmore Girls’s Lauren Graham and Coyote Ugly’s Piper Perabo. She likes sticking her nose into their love lives, which they see as a symptom of loneliness, which is perfectly true. Enter love interest Stephen Collins and the rest of the film dutifully follows the rom-com route to a pleasing finale designed to put smiles all around.

Director Michael Lehmann ( 40 Days and 40 Nights) extracts a reasonable quota of
laughs once Keaton starts trying to match Mandy with what she thinks is the perfect
man. A fun but eminently forgettable film.
