This is a very peaceful movie where the humor is based on awkward situations. At times it's painful as the characters struggle, but I found it funny--even if I wasn't rolling in the isles. This is a movie worth seeing--unless you... Full review

Less romance than I expected and more about child-rearing. But all-in-all a good solid romantic comedy with juvenile flair. Kate Hudson your quite a looker.... Full review

It's a cute movie. I don't know why the critics are bashing it. It's a harmless little movie with cute characters. It felt good to see an honest-to-goodness movie about a woman who learns responsibility. It's just a quirky movie. I... Full review

Next to the title, Corbett is the best thing about the film, sparkling, witty, always sweet and courteous, but, more important, a dominating, charismatic screen presence.

Hudson acts sweet, wrinkling her nose and giggling lots, while Joan Cusack is good value as her mommyhood-gone-mad sister.
Helen (Kate Hudson) is a high-flying PA who likes nothing more than drinking and dancing - - until she's lumbered with her late sister's three kids, forcing her to grow up sharpish.
