Cleveronix A different way of telling a story

Stoutor It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

Casey Duggan It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

Lachlan Coulson This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.

divaofsongs I am not going to give a long or detailed review but I just wanted to say that this movie was very funny, light-hearted, and family friendly. I laughed so hard that I had to pause the DVR several times because I could not stop laughing. The baking scene with the boys and their dad was so funny! This movie is a reminder to spouses and children all over the world, that the home's matriarch/patriarch does so much to make the Holiday's perfect for everyone else, so it would be nice if everyone else could just pitch in and take some of the burden off of their shoulders. I cannot understand why this movie got such a low rating, I thought it was great!

CranberriAppl OK, I get what the movie was trying to do, but in the real world, Joy would have been told to calm down and mellow out. Honestly, before she went on strike, she just seemed a tad too neurotic, so I couldn't even cheer when she did it. Not that I think something like this is that serious, but again, I know what the movie was going for. I get that her hubby and sons were too dependent on her, and that's fine, but she had a few issues as well. I liked Daphne's Hallmark Thanksgiving movie, but this one wasn't as good. David Sutcliffe was funny as always and so were the sons. Oh, and I don't consider myself to be a feminist, but it was not lost on me how Daphne's character was the only woman in her house, and the other wives only mentioned their husbands and male children. Typical We-Have- Issues-With-Men Lifetime.

Robin I wouldn't vote 1 (awful) because it had SOME redeeming qualities. Those being that I DO enjoy the actors who were in it (Zuniga, Duffy and especially David Sutcliffe) but the story was so improbable as to verge on the unbelievable. I actually stopped watching 30 mins before the end.Whoever cast it is not very good at their job. NO WAY would we buy Duffy being Zuniga's MOTHER! Her older sister, sure,,, but MOTHER? Come on! Audiences aren't that stupid.And I agree with the other poster who said that the family is this story was ridiculous. Two of the most self-absorbed and spoiled teenagers with barely ANY manners. It's no wonder she felt the need to strike to begin with.It was a good concept gone bad. Whoever was responsible for the production and execution of it is at fault.

wackerg Syrupy chick flick lacking the guts it needs to be convincing. Casting Julia Duffy as Joy Robinson's mother was foolish, given that she is either too young to play that part, or that Zuniga is too old to play her part. In addition, was the slightly quavery voice Duffy used really supposed to convince us that she was older? Puhleeze! Either way, it didn't work for me. Nevertheless, the Joy Robinson character needs to grow a set! I was never, at any time, convinced that Joy had reached her end point in tolerance for her feckless, thoughtless and egocentric men-children. She reminds me of the off-brand trash bags: wimpy, wimpy, wimpy!!
