This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film
This film is about as slight as they come. There's absolutely nothing of any substance, which would be fine, if they served up a large slice of light and frothy, but there's none of that either. Zero chemistry between the leads, combined with by-the-numbers writing and directing all add up to a confection best avoided.
What happens when your best friends try to set you up? Probably nothing remotely close to what happens in this movie (NO SPOILERS), but the cast and crew do a great job of taking a close look at parenting from a variety of perspectives and through a comic overlay of the would-be romance between the wonderful co-stars. Here are these two very successful professionals, caught up in their own very different routines, confounded suddenly by the hardship of losing their friends, the reality that THEY are actually the best choices as guardians to young Sophie (NO SPOILERS). As most parents and guardians can tell you, no amount of prior training or experience can make you the perfect parent but things come around eventually if you share enough love and dedication to the young person/people in your care. My compliments to the writers and directors as well as to the cast and crew.
the ambition to propose more than a romantic story is the basic virtue of film. the stories of two people who becomes parents, a couple, a family, has a great potential without be an original subject. and two good looking actors in lead roles represents a good point. Josh Duhamel does a good job in a role who explores the paternity in smart manner , using humor and drama in right doses. sentimental, decent, proposing solutions and reflecting a serious problem of every day reality, it seems be a little different by many other too sweet romantic stories. sure, it has a precise target and the need to respect the last decade rules of genre. but it has all points to not be boring or pathetic. and Katherine Heigl gives her the best.
charming, nice and nothing new. a comedy in which actor are more important than tale. a child like spice, Tracey/Hepburn recipes, few slices of good humor and love as invincible conqueror. without chemistry, without a real story, but much crumbs of romance in very old forms. a Sunday movie behind work week. beautiful actors and insignificant child. a tragedy in strange clothes. the couple is only subject. parents of Sophie, social assistant, neighbors - only details . but real character is food. for few moments, suggestion, axis of events, sense/refuge of Holly, cage for doctor, calendar for Sophie. in fact, a movie about two beautiful people and their work for income.
