A real honest-to-god dog turd of a movie. And the worst part is it didn't have to end up so craptastical... The earlier scenes between mother and son were the definite highlight and made me hope for something good. But the second half a)drags b)is entirely too sappy for the mood set up in the first half and c)is pretty shite-a-riffic. It's really too too bad.
If you wanna see Jeff Daniels in a GOOD dysfunctional father role, watch "The Squid and The Whale", he actually had something to sink his teeth into. On the other hand, if you liked "Stepmom", you'll luuuv this heaping pile of gooey emotional discharge.
