who would actually benefit from being told as much by a simplistic, uninvolving movie.....it's a fine time out for the whole family.....Imagine That has no such eccentricity to fall back on.....the ideal viewer of this oddly underpowered, disappointingly scattershot movie is a high-powered workaholic corporate executive who's forgotten....Director Karey Kirkpatrick ( Over the Hedge ) coaxes some very nice moments indeed out of Murphy and Shahidi.... ...
