[A] depressingly monotonous Rob Reiner-directed comedy starring Michael Douglas and Diane Keaton.

You could call Oren Little 'charming' — except no one does.

Overview
Nobody likes self-centered realtor Oren Little, and he prefers it that way. He's deliberately mean to anyone who crosses his path and wants nothing more than to sell one final house and retire. His life turns upside-down when his estranged son drops off a granddaughter he never knew existed. Suddenly left in charge of her and with no idea how to take care of a child, he pawns the girl off on his neighbor, Leah -- but he eventually learns how to open his heart.

Everything about the movie is as uninspired as the title.

And So It Goes may touch the frayed heartstrings of some older viewers, but it's pretty bad - the failed attempt to Heimlich a venerable movie genre.

And So It Goes never goes quite far enough, in any direction.

This film is the cinematic equivalent of comfort food.
