Stuck in Love 2012

     Bill Borgens is a celebrated author but his wife left him three years ago.  He hasn’t written a word since this shock to his life.  He encourages his daughter Sam and his son Rusty to journal and continue writing.  Sam is about to publish her first novel but she hasn’t spoken to her mother in nearly a year.  Bill is upset that Sam’s novel is not the one he had proofread for her.  Rusty makes the mistake of falling in love with a fellow teen with an addition to drugs and alcohol.

     Does anything I’ve written above sound at all funny?  This is very predictable with a thin plot and OK acting.  Not much else left to say is there?  2 ½*
