A family affair

I know I shouldn't have high expectations for a romantic comedy movie, but this was so bad. Such a waste of potential with such a promising cast.

The most importnat problem for me in this move is that the chemistry between Zac and Nicole was no existent. In all of their scenes looked like they were forced to do them and they did them without energy. They couldn't convince me that they were in love, they gave as nothing when we talk about emotion and their facial expression. In some scenes Zac had more chemistry with Joey.

The story is not bad at all and it could have been a decent romantic movie but it was wasted due to the lack of chemistry between the leads.

I love rom coms and enjoyed this light fun one on a Sunday morning having breakfast in bed.

Great acting from Kathy Bates and Joey King.

Horrific surgery from Nicole and Zac led to this being hard to watch. Nicole can't express with that face anymore. The chemistry between them was non existent.

I enjoyed the premise and we had a few laughs but I'm glad we didn't go to the cinema and drop coin on this movie.

Husband and I came straight to the reviews to see if everyone agreed with us and they do.

Please cast Kidman opposite someone her own age next time. I just really wish the surgery wasn't a thing. Age gracefully please people. It's painful to see.

I am a bit of a sucker for films that don't require much thought. I love romances and I am all for something light-hearted.

There is no chemistry between Kidman and Efron. Their interactions are uncomfortable and unbelieveable. Kidman is a great actress but this was not the right film for her talents.

I didn't mind the concept or the scrips and I could have happily watched this film multiple times if casting had worked better. Chemistry is so vital.

Joey King is good as is Kathy Bates but that is it.

If you want an age difference romance with leads that are credible and naturally pleasing I recommend The Idea of You with Anne Hathaway and Nicolas Galitzine - chemistry that is believable.

I had great expectations for this. Great cast, Nicole Kidman, Joey King, Zac Efron and the always amazing Kathy Bates.

While on paper the casting is great, but when you watch this weak romcom it's easy to see that Efron and Kidman have been miscast. Either one would probably have worked very well with another actor but together Efron and Kidman are quite frankly, awful, in this. They have zero chemistry and to me looks like they couldn't even fake it. Their faces seem to lack the ability to portray any natural emotive expressions whatsoever. They are 100% not believable as lovers which makes it really impossible to root for their relationship.

Bates is her usual lovely self, and King is excellent, providing the only comic relief here. They completely carry this film.

Avoid.

Seriously, this would have been such a great film. The ONLY thing that saved this film is Joey King and Kathy Bates.

Nicole looks like a stone-faced unhuman and I think it's amazingly sad that so many beautiful women think they look younger and/or better with cosmetic surgery when in fact, we obviously notice and they never look better. Her hair color was horrid, her black eyebrows such a contrast that I couldn't stop looking at her instead of be involved in the movie! Zac looks like his face was frozen as well. It was very hard to continue watching it.....and again, if not for the amazing performance from Joey King, I probably would have turned it off. Kudos to her and Bates.
