Charlotte What a waste of time. The script, the characters, the plot are all dull and one dimensional. Really this type of film can only work if you like and root for the main character but unfortunately the main protagonist is a lazy, jobless slob who goes through the film feeling sorry for herself and doing nothing. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 11/22/23 Full Review Emilliano Jr S Melanie Lynskey is no doubt a trully great actress. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Spoilers: A study in not just the skillful Melanie's 30-something, wounded-by-life, mopey Amy, but also in a comfortable suburban lifestyle and the reality that moving back in with Mom and Dad atter her divorce is not just a two-edged sword but largely a pain in the ass, with mostly sympathetic John and self-absorbed, pushy Blythe. Awash in a sea of WTF, Amy is seeking something but again WTF, after giving up working on photography, for her lawyer hubby, and up pops very young acquaintance Jeremy, and boom. Call it passing the time with a 19-year-old. It is on the QT. When her mom calls the kid gay, she almost chokes on the corn on the cob, and Dad has to Heimlich her after which she laughs lustily, knowing what they do not. The kid surely gets Melanie's figurative juices flowing, as well as her literal juices. But like a kid, she is so about neither offending nor disappointing her parents, it's time to, uh, grow up. She gives the kid his walking papers, tries another date, to no avail. More socially unapproved stuff happens, and Amy finally tells off her chauvinistic ex-hubby, drops her loving teen-ager, who is headed for college, and makes a plan -- back to college for her, and a little stroking of her wounded Mom, in a bad marriage, on a trip. The humorous parts of this and of Amy help save this coming of age piece, this sheltered girl/woman, who at one point screams, "Where's the bottom?" She starts to make something happen, hard times or not, by deciding how to move forward. Bravo, Melanie; Blythe, a pro, stole her share of scenes. Abbott played it just right as the kid, seems to have a future.
