All I Wish

I couldn't figure this movie out. It sort of feels like a W movie plot wise, a very silly and predictable romantic comedy with the applicable best friend and situations associated with cookie cutter rom-coms. and then because Sharon Stone is 47-52 but acts an immature 22 (partying, friends half her age, sleeping around, waking up with strange men or on friends couches) I also couldn't decide if this was worth watching. The problem is Sharon Stone and Tony Goldwyn do a great job with theirs roles, so you take them seriously but why they're even in this I'm not sure.

Story follows Stone as a middle aged fashion designer named Senna struggling to find true love and professional success over the course of her birthdays over several years.

Ultimately I enjoyed this, the scenes with Senna and her Mum Ellen Burstyn doing lunch are well done, good chemistry with our couple, a sweet romance and I have to give kudos to both (older) actors, very brave bikini beach volleyball scene for Stone and Mr. President does Karaoke in women's tight, hot pink shorts. They look great. How old is Stone in real life because not a line, blemish or wrinkle in sight, yay Hollywood.

I read somewhere that the screenplay for this movie was written with a woman in her mid-twenties in mind for the lead role, and Stone was considered for the role of the mother. Stone made the argument that the story would be more interesting with a more mature woman (her) as the lead. I don't know if it's more interesting, but that certainly explains why her character is so immature and why she is best friends with a young woman almost half her age, and two times more wisdom.

There should have been some extensive re-writing to make this story more believable, and Stone's character less irritating. Come on girl, surely you know this stuff by now!

I was very impressed with the actor who played her love interest - I loved his natural energy and intelligence.

Story is kind of meh but Tony Goldwyn makes it worth the watch. He brings depth and emotion that draws you in and helps you make it to the end.

Really bad movie, boring, predictable characters, poor acting. I gave up after 30 minutes

Thoroughly enjoyed watching this movie as the older woman I am...Though I think Sharon Stone is 60 now and was playing a woman the age of 46 to start out with - a stretch, unless of course YOU ARE THE BEAUTIFUL, TALENTED, FUNNY SHARON STONE!

Honestly, the movement of being older, unmarried and close to her mother was an interesting plot in itself. The fact she was "off the grid" as a woman to some degree lent fun and interest to the movie, especially as she slowly but surely was able to resurrect her life and succeed financially. She pulled it off very nicely in my opinion. I'm no "spring chick" either, but I saw the "chapters" of her mid-life for what they were; spliced with humor between her originality if not funkiness and her relationships with her best friend, her mother (also a bit of a diva) and the initially "stuffed shirt" lawyer who thawed out very well with little effort along the way.

Sick to death of the cheap, mundane plots that are merely violent; oversexed and repetitious. Now THAT'S a REAL bore! This sunny picture gave me what I needed and wanted out of this woman's life: A JOURNEY, humor, tenacity, renewal and loving relationships, her Mom, her best friend, her guy, because frankly, that really is? WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT. Kudos Ms. Walters and all for making a fun, E N T E R T A I N I N G movie...For that is SUPPOSE to be? Much of what Hollywood is about - entertainment! Y'all "hit the mark" here.
