Sadly Over-hyped

i must have seen a different film!!

A story that's too fascinating to pass by...

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Nicolas Cage is constantly berated for his acting, sometimes fairly, sometimes unfairly. In this one, he's playing a normal guy, not wild and crazy. While this may seem disappointing to some, he carries it off just fine. The problem with this movie is 100% with the terrible script. I have no idea what the writer was thinking. A woman tracks down her donated eggs and embeds herself in the IVF parents lives. Just the concept is so ridiculous, it's hard not to laugh. Then add in the performance of Nicky Whelan, and the lines everybody has to deliver and it's an absolute garbage movie.The worst part, though, is it's not bad enough to enjoy. It takes itself seriously, so there aren't even campy laughs. While watching I was thinking back to another Whelan/Cage movie, Left Behind. That was an awful, awful movie, BUT it was so bad that it was easy to laugh at . This doesn't even have that saving grace.Stay far far away from this one. Even if you are a Nic Cage fan.

56 year old Gina and 54 year old Nick as new parents. Really? Are you kidding? This is getting silly. I understand the need to draw in eyeballs with known talent but come on. Gina's mother in law character is Faye Dunaway who's only 11 years older. There's only so much soft focus and cake makeup you slather on to cover that. And Nick? Shoe polish in your hair is not a good look. I get it, you owe like a zillion dollars and you have to work like a dog but why not look for parts for a guy your age.

3/12/18. This wasn't too bad for a psychological thriller in which a woman hired to be a surrogate gets a bit too close to the older child of the couple who hired her. There is a slight thriller component to the plot. They should probably called this the "Plastic Ladies" given that Gershon and Dunaway were totally unrecognizable.

I can't believe Nick Cage would reduce himself to this silly soap opera. It's the sort of flick that stay at home mommies like to watch when they're bored senseless. I guess Nick is hard up for cash. And Fay Dunaway needs to hide her head in the sand and disappear. I never did think she could act, but all that plastic surgery makes her hard to look at. She may have a future is B rated monster movies.
