This is a movie which i was feeling very excited to watch when it came out,after i finished watching the movie,guess what??the movie sincerely gave me some kind of feeling of incompletion...i will not deny the fact that the acting was great but in my opinion the story was really off-beat ,i love the character of the mother which was played by julia roberts but the movie had some kind of poor scripts which made the whole plot to actually become like an actual glimpse of just an episode of something,and then BAM!!!the movie ends...maybe its just me alone that was dissapointed with the movie but trust me i later realized i was not the only one who felt that same way too... the movie was unsatisfying to me....,
and yeah the movie made me feel like i wasted my time watching it,lovely story though but the whole scripts and cinematography did not do justice to the story...
