A Bit of a Loner anyway she needs boost of confidence for Book Number 2. Same Week Her Best Friend is Having Bachelorette Fling in Palm Springs.

So in Summary a Bunch of Actresses of various AGE and A Handsome Dude Drink Wine and Eat Jumbo Shrimp leading to a Wedding and SWEET Ending ! Worked for me especially impressed with MACK (Lail) , nice job on dialogue. Ensemble Cast. Costume Department Thumbs Up. Flashy Outfits !

Diane Keaton Producer and was likely on Set for Ending Scenes. Maybe doing a little Coaching ?

The Director (Katie Aselton) is also an Actress.

Light hearted escapism; not nearly worthy of some of the overwhelmingly negative reviews here. But don't go thinking you're going to see an Oscar winner either.

Elizabeth Laiil and Dianne Keaton are charming. However, the story is one we all know. But if you're looking for a few hours to forget the world, you'll enjoy it just fine...

Why on earth was this movie even made? Stupid jokes, lame story that's been done a hundred times before, and even lamer cast.

The Diane Keaton character's voice was so annoyingly high pitched that it was hard to even hear what was being said. Waste of time.

I havent seen this many perfectly good jokes fail to land since VIBES. Why? Bad chemistry, poor timing? Cast is fine, script is good, but by fifteen minutes in i thought so many movies are made but not released - WHY NOT THIS? Ah well, it looked nice.

Our ladies group got together for lunch and then saw this movie. It did not take long to realize the indigestion we were getting wasn't from lunch, but it was this lifeless and dead movie.

Diane Keaton is usually a good actress who brings a lot of character and laughs to any movie... but she has lost everything with this movie!

The "so-called" funny remarks fell silent with everyone in the theater, and the timing was horrible.

We wasted our time, we wasted our good hard-earned money, and along with the over-priced concessions, it was a costly dead afternoon!

A few days after we saw it, we noticed it had been removed from the listing of movies at the theater... well, the writing was on the wall for this one! Good bye and good riddance!
