User Reviews

Boring, boring, boring

I don't know why everyone is raving about this film! I found it totally boring, uninteresting, stupid, and even aggravating. The characters are annoying, and what's the point of telling this story -- there is no story. The main character can't deal with his responsibilities and sequesters himself in his parents New York apartment, pretending he's a boy again. Don't waste your time seeing this crap. I should have walked out after the first 15 minutes, but I was hoping it would get better. It didn't. Another note: the apartment the parents lived in looked like an overstuffed warehouse. Maybe since the director/writer employed his real-life parents, it's their real-life apartment, too? Who would want to live in that clutter? Save your money and forget about Momma's Man!
