Cast: Antonio Banderas, Meg Ryan, Colin Hanks, Selma Blair and others
Director: George Gallo
This movie probably attracted audiences because of its impressive star-cast. I had heard a lot about this movie but was too lazy to go and watch the movie in the theaters. For sometime I was even wondering whether I was missing something, but after watching the movie I am more than convinced that it was not a bad decision at all. The story line of the movie is something like this: Meg Ryan plays the role of an obese, drunken single mother whose son goes out of the house to get trained as a FBI agent. When he returns he sees a completely transformed Meg Ryan. A slim, svelte and sexy woman, she has a set of boyfriends that include a college dropout and a drunk Italian chef.
Quite naturally the son Henry (Colin Hanks) is worried about this mother's wayward life. The worries multiply when she bumps into Tommy (Antonio Banderas) in the market and starts dating him. Things get even charged up for Henry when he has to spy on Tommy, he has to bug his own home, and follow his mother. What happens thereafter and how things get sorted out forms the rest of the movie.
The screenplay is honestly quite pathetic. Other than the impressive star cast there is nothing in the movie. If you haven't watched it don't bother, if you have the opportunity to watch it free and don't have anything better to do, it would be a better option.
