A widower prepares for his four children to come home for a family visit for the first time since his wife’s’ death, but as the date approaches, each of his kids end up canceling on him forcing him to take a road trip across the country to visit each one. He quickly discovers that they are all keeping things from him.
This movie has such a stellar cast and yet they never hit the mark. The story tries so hard to be sentimental and yet at the same time never develops enough to make you care. Also the actors seem to have a hard time meshing and I never truly believed that they were anything other than themselves on screen.
The ending is somewhat predictable and to be honest irritating. As I mentioned before the story seems under developed and it wraps up a little too neatly causing one to wonder if you missed something.
* ½ Rentable I suppose
Rated PG -13 (language)
