Oh my goodness- the hype about this movie- so misleading! I was ready for a light hearted Saturday night "date" movie. My poor husband! I dragged him to this sad sad movie about a beautiful woman who has a relationship with a complete loser; she has a miscast son who is suffering through a dying young marriage, a free spirit daughter who takes off to Sweden- pregnant; the neighbor upstairs makes noise; the ugliest cat imaginable wants to hang out in her apartment; and there is an unexplained friend from work who sadly loses her job with no explanation Nothing turns out well in this movie- the trip to Vegas is a disaster, the boy friend is a disaster, and Gloria is late to her good friend's daughter's wedding but inexplicably dances with abandon on the dance floor Do not waste your time or money. And who cares that it is "woman led" Bad is bad
