Two hours I will never get back. Perhaps I am not deep enough to appreciate the "masterpiece" others may think this movie is. I personally found it to be a huge bore. And Moore's lisp seemed to come and go--she could say some S's and not others. Weird.

What a cute movie! I don't know what the one-star reviewers were watching. I found it more believable (for a movie) than Are You There God, It's Me Margaret and more entertaining. Kudos to the Sandler family for making a feel-good movie that really captures and celebrates Judaism/becoming a Bat Mitzvah so well (well...the parties are a bit over-the-top, but it is Hollywood). I found the acting of the young cast believable and the family dynamics endearing.

After reading some of the less-than-stellar reviews, I was skeptical. But this was a great binge! If you don't like silly, far-fetched sitcoms that poke fun at themselves and reality (Parks and Rec, Lowe's 1-season gem "The Grinder" come to mind), then you won't like this one. But it is goofy, quick-paced (though watching it on 1.25 speed may have helped with that), and has a great cast. I hope there's a season 2.

Nothing redeeming about this movie
