I liked the acting, but there was not enough depth with the characters. I didn't understand why Nicole or William was so troubled. Why did Millie have so many foster kids? Why were the kids always hungry? Why didn't she seem to know or care where the two eldest were before the riots happened? (Jesse had Nicole shacked up and she seemed clueless about it) The plot was also all over the place. There was some comedy, drama and romance. It was too much. This movie needed more focus in one direction. I enjoyed Jesse's character the most though.
