Adapted from the best-selling novel by Allison Pearson, a working mother strives to balance her demanding career, raise two children and find time for her marriage. Kate is a financial planner which requires a lot of travel, her daughter likes to make her feel guilty but her son is still young enough to appreciate anything. Her husband is an out-of-work architect trying to land a dream job. How can Kate contribute something homemade to the school bake sale just after returning from a flight, get a new project off the ground at work, be home when her children need her and have anything left to be a partner to her marriage?
Kate doesn't stop running for the 88 minutes and everyone else is swirling around her constantly. Looking for relaxation and distraction in a movie, this will not be the one for you. Strong cast but hasn't this all been done before? 3* (This movie is OK)
88 min, Comedy directed by Douglas McGrath with Sarah Jessica Parker, Pierce Brosnan, Kelsey Grammer, Christina Hendricks, Olivia Munn, Greg Kinnear.
Note: Blockbuster 3*, imdb 4.3 out of 10, 17% critic 33% audience on Rotten Tomatoes.
