Diane (Marcia Gay Harden) and Kate (Halston Sage) are not only mother and daughter but also best friends. Their lives are turned upside down, however, when Diane announces her engagement to a man named Bruce (Aidan Quinn), whom she's been secretly dating. In a series of comical events, Kate must come to terms with letting her mother be happy with someone else while she navigates her own love life and career aspirations. As Diane falls deeper in love, Kate worries that their close-knit relationship will be forever changed--and not for the better; so, she subconsciously tries to sabotage the wedding plans (despite officiating it). While Katie tries to get her mom to slow down and reconsider this obvious calamitous life decision, she finds herself falling for her handsome neighbor, Josh (Andrew Richardson)--the right guy at the totally wrong time.

This otherwise run-of-the-mill romantic comedy gets a little lift from the refreshing perspective of seeing the story through the strong mother-daughter relationship at its heart. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Aye E Sep 10 Ok, for a one time watch. Wish this had a stronger script, felt more like a good outline waiting for some good writers to solidify the relationships and tighten up the plot. But the performances and actors were good at least. I really watched this for Aiden Quinn. Missed seeing him in romcoms and he was great in a mature romantic role. The girl, Halston Sage, was a little too perfect (maybe too much make-up for a real-life feel), but she seems like a successor to Rachel McAdams, it could be fun to see them playing sisters. And the Richardson guy was super appealing. All the right pieces were in place, but for the wrong project.

See more Jeremy W 01/13/2024 A modern take on a classic filled with depleted morals, one night stands, and horrendous divorced parenting. Exactly what our culture doesn't need. See more Rebecca F 09/06/2023 I thought it was a cute picture of a beautiful relationship. It didn't take itself too seriously but had some serious moment that made absolutely worth the watch. I loved Halston Sage. Great movie! See more Chris M @Chrisrmo 07/31/2023 Good acting is wasted by a boring plot. Nothing interesting happens in this movie. Outside of a couple of funny moments, this is not worth watching See more 02/05/2023 A fun, lighthearted reimagining of a mother-daughter relationship with excellent performances from Harden, Sage, Quin and Richardson.
