I really cannot fathom who these people are writing the glorious comments. The movie was banal at best, partially unbearable for the bad acting. ( The retarded brother made me scream, and if I had to look into Bella's eyes one more time, I would've rather gone blind )
The cuts were horrible, and the whole movie and script didn't make much sense anyway. What was the daughter doing in Mexico now? working as a prostitute maybe? Yeah, and I still have to find a high powered VP executive who is casually dropping in on meetings, and baking bread anyway, haha wish I had this guy's job with the paycheck and all the free time.
The Italian couple was laughably pseudo-realistic, the daughter remained 2 dimensional, and the rest of the cast seemed more like cast-offs from a highschool drama lab. I watched it till the end just in the faint hope, it would get any better - NOT!
