While I'm not too sure the story makes sense, the acting by Michael Keaton and Carl Burnett is purposely over the top and chaotic, and Burnett's comedic timing is still there. Alexis Bledel's blue eyes will glue ANY guy over the age of 12 to their seats! There are some really funny moments, but its a somewhat typical and predictable film. Not to say that makes it less enjoyable, but its been done before. If you are looking to just escape reality for a little while, or want a relaxing date movie, this is a good pick. Just a side note: A few on this movie review have stated that they aren't sure Alexis can act, or they need to wait for more roles to do than to wallow through cliches. While I respect the opinion of others I want to recommend they rent "I'm Reed Fish", "Sin City", and also watch Less Than Jake's music video in which she has a part in. Not trying to defend her per se, but opening you up to something you may not have seen. Anyway, go see this film for fun.

This movie had great potential but never delivered. I found it a rather boring movie with little character development. Even Carol Burnett as Grandma could not save it, though I found her to be the best character of the movie. Should have waited for the DVD.

While the movie was predictable, it had all the things a good movie does - good actors, humor, and emotion. Alexis Bledel was wonderful in the movie, as was Carol Burnett and Michael Keaton. It is one of those "feel good" movies that make you laugh and leave you with a smile when it's over. I loved it! It was a nice change from all the high drama, fast action, fantasy movies that have been out lately (all which I also love)....See it! In the end, you will be glad you did.

The preview of the movie was the best part, everything else is deceiving! There was random scenes and did not have a strong storyline!

Some funny scenes with Michael Keaton. Tries to be smart, but fails. Otherwise, boring.
