Christine Patterson

This film is made by Jennifer Anniston, Nicole Kidman, the ridiculously young girlfriend with a heart of gold and the little one who plays Jennifer's daughter. The men are just along for the ride, which I really enjoyed. I loved the sheep scene, classic slapstick, awkward, omg when is it going to end kind of slapstick. This is not a cerebral celebration of great movie moments, but it's fun and funny and you really root for Jennifer to win Adam's love and for Nicole to lose her husband and get on with her life.

This film makes you forget who is acting in it. The very accomplished actors in this film completely become the characters, their human dignity, fragility and longing for all that is innately human is beyond poignant. And isn't that the point? Just a beautiful film with normal everyday circumstances that anyone can relate to and celebrate or grieve over.
