What a waste of my time!!!

Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

Lack of good storyline.

Well that's 1 hour and 25 minutes of my life I won't get back! This story has been told much better before, and not just the once in varying formats. I struggled to sit though this as the performances were weak, stunted with no depth to them. I can honestly say I have cared more for a prawn salad than I did any of the characters and I don't like prawns! The only likable character was the daughter and even her acting seemed in places forced and frankly wooden. This wreaked of low budget and really didn't need to as the script in places was OK, not moving or Oscar worthy but alright for a rom com or was this supposed to be a 'dramady' it couldn't make up it's mind for the most part. To be honest I didn't laugh once so perhaps this was just supposed to be a drama but then I didn't find it moving or engrossing either. I think they were telling the age old story of boyfriend shags girlfriend's mum and relying on the 'god I never saw that coming' shocker (even though it was coming at you like a train from the outset) to carry this entire flop of a film. In my opinion and it is only my opinion, don't tell a good story half heartedly after all you wouldn't make war and peace using punch and judy. If you want to watch this story being told properly watch The Graduate and see real acting and film making or go 80's for a different slant and watch Class but spare yourself this two bit punch and judy show its a rotten tomato from me I'm afraid. Ps I am not denying the male lead Jonathan Sadowski is handsome but those eyebrows - wow they were very distracting, I kept thinking of Danny La Rue all the time!

It's quite rare for me not to finish a movie. I've seen uncountable movies and perhaps walked out on two or three. Call me a prude but at the base of this entire story was a cheap sex coupling. I can deal with that subject, but it always bothers me that sex is so casual these days.In many movies a couple meets and then they have sex very quickly after meeting. But the story continues and they enjoy each other's company and fall in love, perhaps to get married. This story had no such promise of love. It was simply sex that brought the mother and lead character together.I felt really uncomfortable for the characters. I had no interest in seeing this through to the end. No outcome would be acceptable to me.Yea I guess I'll call myself a prude. I'm looking for another romantic comedy to watch tonight.

All Relative is a 2014 film currently available on NetFlix Instant Download Streaming. It is a comedy drama directed by J.C. Khoury and written by J.C. Khoury. It features Connie Nielsen, Jonathan Sadowski, Sara Paxton, Al Thompson, David Aaron Baker, Liz Fye, Audrey Jessup, Sarah Steele, Erin Wilhelmi and Rob Yang. The story is about a young man in architecture school who falls in love with a young student. However, the plot thickens when he meets up with a beautiful blond woman who just happens to be the mother of his girlfriend unbeknownst to him. This plat comes close to that of the classic film by Mike Nichols, "The Graduate" which received a superlative rating of 10. I was only able to give this film a 6. Dale Haufrect

I saw the movie last night in NYC. The theater was packed and the movie delivered big time. There were many honest moments throughout the film.Beautiful storytelling and a great cast, with NYC as the backdrop how can you go wrong. This was an incredibly funny and engaging movie.You can put yourself in the shoes of the characters and feel the suspense emerge. With great twists and turns, this movie had me laughing and thinking. It reminds me of comedies from the 80s. J.C. Khoury does a fantastic job as writer/director and Connie Nielsen from Gladiator lights up the screen! Don't miss this movie. Definitely worth a look. -Johnny G. @ All Things Creative
