Célibataire et fabuleuse!

The first part I saw it with interest and sympathy. I ignored the invoked age - no doubts, about to have 60, not exactly 50- and the dialogue on beach has nice dose of realism in this context.

I loved the actors and few scenes parent - daughter.

But the second part has the mission to ruin everything. Because the story seems only an improvisation in drinkness - deep tire condition, the lesbian love and total carefree of girls works to a kind of manifesto not so pleasant, the men in her life are a sort of pieces of selfish game and the end seems reduced to rain and three anniversary cakes.

The virtue - good idea of romance about 69 crisis.

So many bad reviews here, but I found it to be a lovely easy watching movie. Are they sometimes a bit of a stretch... yes! But that's what we've come to enjoy...I always look forward to the new movies. It's a great way to spend an evening.

Happy to see that Hallmark has become a progressive company with real world story lines.

People that are offended by same sex relationship are not living in 2022. Everyone deserves to be represented in film or tv.

Terry Hatcher was great! Yes she is playing a character a few years younger but who cares... I would recommend this movie. It's hallmark people... just enjoy!

A woman, beautiful at any age, has a crisis because she is getting older? Join the club! Not everyone has the DNA option of being physically attractive as they go through all the unfair trails of life as they grow older. And turning 50? Healthy and attractive and financially set? Get real! Such a dumb movie, based on shallow, empty characters with empty matters pressing on their shallow lives.

I have no more words to add to the required 600 characters, just want to say this movie makes me cringe. On my shallowest day, I was never this bad. So self absorbed and oblivious to what is going on.

Seriously, I love both Terri Hatcher and James Tupper and they have both done much better things than this hallmark film.

Terri Hatcher plays Mindy a divorcee who dropped out of Med School when she got pregnant and gave up her dreams to be a doctor to teach high school science (which she is so "passionate" about that she just quits her job without even really thinking about it). Terri's 23 year old daughter also drops out of medical school and wants to use Mindy's 50th birthday party which she doesn't want to have as the backdrop to propose to her girlfriend (yes this has a heavy handed lesbian story, so if that is not for you...you have been forewarned, do not watch it).

My problem is not with the overall idea Mindy having a mid-life crisis...my problem is with all of the little odd and out of place details that don't feel natural or work for the story (and not just the coincidences like that the girlfriend's uncle just happens to be Mindy's first live from high school...played by James Tupper). My problems include...why was the uncle staying with them when there was no party and the girlfriend didn't know about the proposal?, with what money is this new lesbian couple going to live off of now that they have quit their jobs and bought a camper van? Why does the free spirit suddenly do a 180 and care what others think, the overly dramatic with no cause mid-life crisis. And what money is Mindy going to live off of now that she has quit her job????

I appreciated that Hallmark attempted to share the struggles of a woman who is 49 going on 50 (as that is my exact age and I actually did quit my job this last year), but I wish they had done it with a better script and more believable storyline. As they say the devil is in the details...and there were so many holes in this it kept it from being a good, enjoyable cohesive story. I am sorry to say that I can't recommend this to anyone.

Mindy Quinn (Teri Hatcher) is turning 50 and having a mid-life crisis. She's been divorced for two years. Her daughter Rita dropped out of med school and is marrying Emily. Her friend Nathalie tells her to feel her feelings, and that's when Sam Berman (James Tupper) notices her. He's actually her high school boyfriend and Emily's uncle.

I had little expectations for this. Of course, I wanted to see some Teri Hatcher with James Tupper. I expected a bit of bland TV romance, but this is even less than that. Her objection with the proposal is light weight and frustrating. I really need more heat from the romance. It doesn't help that Marc isn't a hunkier guy. There's no chance to develop into a real love triangle. This is a mid-life crisis. It needs some funny attempts at youthful indiscretions. It barely even has that. Maybe the big lead names heightened my expectations under the radar.
