A must watch for the awesomeness named Susan Sarandon!!!! Oh she just becomes the character.

So this is a story of a 'more than necessary', 'concerned' meddling mom (Susan Sarandon) who kinda is super clingy to her 'not that young', 'in her late thirties' daughter (Rose Byrne) The movie is such a simple yet heartwarming story about coping with loss, the way it plays out on our personalities.. I watched this movie, to start with just as a mode of killing time... but it's a must watch cuz each one of us can feel in the shoes of the characters..n inspite of being light hearted, this one has such strong characters .. The writing has depth.. There was a scene where I found myself laughing out loud with the mom - daughter

And what starts as a fun movie about a mom Crossing her boundaries turns into this really deep connection that this character has with others..

I thoroughly enjoyed it!! A fabulous choice to watch it with the entire family, il definitely watch it again with my mom for sure..

8 out of 10 from me, for a light hearted, superbly written, fun must watch!

PS: also loved Rose Byrne's work!! Amazing
