Very good film. Great acting performances from the entire cast. But this isn't really a comedy.

I thought the cast saved this movie. Otherwise, it was just okay. Plot was nothing special at all.

Just got done watching it.

Totally NOT a comedy. There were a few funny lines, but, um, no, not a comedy. When it was over, my sister said, "I hate this movie. I thought it was supposed to be a comedy."

I thought the cast was great. The plot was very eh. I had no idea where they were going at the end when the chick went off to college.

Thought there was potential for a better story ending there. Wasn't the worst way to spend a few hours, but I had hoped for something better.
