We picked this movie last night to watch. Halfway through it, I realized I had already seen it and had completely forgotten about it. I wondered how I could forget a movie with such an all star cast: Jason Bateman, Tina Fey, Adam Driver, Rose Byrne, Dax Shepard, etc.

For me, the story just didn’t develop. Kind of like how Jason’s character ‘doesn’t do complicated’ neither did the story. Lastly, I didn’t think they cast Jane Fonda’s character right. She was funny and crass, but didn’t demonstrate a shred of motherliness in my opinion.

I bet the book is much better and I’ve been looking for a good fiction book to read so I’ll have to add it to my wish list.
