Ava (Mandy Moore) is a marriage councilor. Things are going smoothly when suddenly her parents announce that Mom (Jane Seymour) wants a divorce, based upon an affair Dad (James Brolin) has 20 years ago. Now Dad is embracing his Jewish side, and Mom wants to travel the world. But Ava feels the need to bring them back together while her own marriage is struggling due to the stresses of trying to deal with her parents. Suddenly everything she believes in is falling apart, and she’s got to question whether she’s been a Pollyanna all along and life and love really does suck!
This is a cute little romantic comedy with a lot of great actors. It’s a small film, and available as a streaming film from Netflix and often available on cable or in a host of other ways. This looks like they certainly had a great deal of fun making this! This is like a big “Love Boat” episode, with lots of side stories and lots of great actors and actresses having a ball. It’s cute watching Ava’s most sincere plans go up in smoke. It’s not a heavy film, in the least. Just a simple rom-com with a good mix of both humor and romance. It’s like visiting old friends. Not a bad movie at all. There is a pretty surprising twist in the end. If you don’t see it coming, it’ll be worth the effort to watch it just for that! Hint: It takes place in the hospital. 🙂
