An excellent Hollywood formula film. Marguilies is outstanding while Garcia overreaches to be "Italian". He deserves a better script and director. Mortimer is also a good actress somewhat miscast here. So why did I rate this so high? Because it struck emotional chords in this Italian guy - many scenes from my life -funny, sad and yes a formula film with a good heart. See it and enjoy.
This was the most entertaining movie made in years. It was hard not to stop smiling for most of the movie. I wanted to be a member of their family at the end.
It has 90 minutes of where you can barely keep your eyes open because you do not feel for the story the acting is terrible and the script is worse then there is the cinimatograohy makes you dseasick. I can't believe the general rating is the same as Shutter island in the reviews of course that had backing and It even was better alot better
