    There is absolutely no substance to this movie. A waste of time to watch it.

    I enjoyed the movie. I thought about my two sisters and I when we had to face the reality of losing a mother and a father. It was good to see the reactions and actions of siblings when faced with losing a parent.

    With Meg Ryan and Diane Keaton starring, we expected a pretty good movie, but there were only a few comedic moments. Overall it was kind of a downer.
