Michelle Pfeiffer (HAIRSPRAY) plays a woman who may be established in her life and career, but who has far to go in the world of love. When she meets an attractive young man (Rudd), she debates the merits of a May-December romance. Meanwhile, her daughter (Oscar nominee Saoirse Ronan, ATONEMENT) has romantic struggles of her own, and Mother Nature (Tracey Ullman) interferes from the sidelines. [More]

As an older woman who has built her career on a keen understanding of youth culture, she [Director Amy Heckerling] has a lot to say about Rosie's small world.

a rather ignominious defeat for a "comeback" performance from one of the great stars

Very nearly an entertaining, lightweight comedy, except for one flaw: its message is about as subtle as those in a Disney sports movie.

It's smart and warm, and if Heckerling loses her grip a few times, it's only because she's squeezing so hard.

...has been infused with a distinctly over-the-top sensibility that effectively drains the proceedings of anything even resembling authenticity.

A desperately unfunny mix of tepid showbiz satire and formulaic romantic comedy.

It’s much better than a lot of the stuff playing in theaters.

It's a pleasant diversion -- an enjoyable romantic comedy that has enough going for it to make it worth a recommendation.

A direção de Heckerling é irregular e a montagem é assustadoramente descuidada, mas Pfeiffer e (especialmente) Rudd conferem charme suficiente para tornar o filme divertido.
