Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Truly Dreadful Film

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Jennifer Mills (Anna Chlumsky) is a 25 year old freewheeling single with commitment issues and an aloof boyfriend. Her older sister Mandy and husband are going on a European vacation for 3 weeks. At the last minute, their mother can't babysit the 3 kids due to an injury to their father. Not everything goes smoothly with the cool aunt. The eldest daughter Alice Norton (Tiera Skovbye) has boy troubles. The younger girl has mean girls troubles, and the boy is a neurotic mess being bullied. Will Johnson (Warren Christie) is the handsome new next door neighbor who lends a hand. It turns out that her mother isn't really truthful.It's a Hallmark movie with nothing special. It's shot like every other second rate TV movie. There isn't much to recommend other than that there isn't anything objectionable going on. The acting is unimpressively reasonable. The dialog is pedestrian. The movie could do with some hijinx. The kids' problems are good drama. The little kids almost save this movie. The parents in Europe is not so good drama because there is no real danger of a breakup. The romantic chemistry between Jennifer and Will could do with a bit more heat but it's sweet anyways.

I really liked this movie. It might be because I personally am that "cool aunt", so I easily related to Jennifer's character.But what I really liked about this movie was the way the actors portrayed their characters. Sure, it's not award winning acting, but the actors portrayed their characters very realistically. Hallmark movies, I have found, have a tendency to have good general stories, but they're portrayed in an unrealistic, cheesy way. In comparison to other Hallmark movies I could mention, the acting wasn't nearly as cheesy as it could have been. That might be because when I'm with my family, we pretty much behave the same exact way.I also felt that the dialogue was well written. Not because it was incredibly poetic or quotable, but it was (again) realistic. It was like someone eavesdropped into a normal conversation I'd have with my own family, should have something like what the characters experienced occurred. People do have interesting conversations with their families sometimes, you know.There was no "wow" factor to this movie, and at times I'll admit it was fairly predictable. But I will say it was cute and charming. And sometimes, it's nice to watch something like this. Sometimes it's nice to not be blown out of the water.I would watch this movie again. I would even recommend it to others to watch (if they were into Hallmark movies).

Anna Chlumsky showed so much promise when she was a kid. Yet now she's resorted to made for TV drivel. This movie is about Jenny, a 20 something girl who can't commit to anything. She ends up looking after her sister's three kids for three weeks while their parents go on a second honeymoon. Cool Aunt Jenny learns that she can be responsible. Each of the kids learns how to deal with some kind of issue they are dealing with. Mom and Dad learn to put the romance back in their relationship. It all unfolds very predictably. There is also a love interest neighbour to come to the rescue when needed. This Hallmark movie is a safe bet if you're looking for something inoffensive to watch with your family. Other than that, don't bother.

The picture is a good one as it deals with interpersonal relations and that everyone has needs and improvements to make in life.A couple, going on a honeymoon after 15 years of marriage, leaves their 3 children with the wife's youngest sister when grandpa and grandma kept come to babysit.This becomes a learning experience for the aunt, the children and the husband and wife, even when the latter are in Europe, they realize that they've come to a crisis in their marriage.The film is a good one because it deals with the coming of age and the maturity and responsibilities which come along.
