Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
There are moments to make you honestly wish it were a better movie, and that the semi-autobiographical screenplay by Michelle Morgan didn't feel so much like a first draft.
Once you get past Imogene's insufferableness, you'll find yourself rooting for her.
Kristen Wiig's comic artistry and its melodramatic tinge are squandered in this frenetic, schematic comedy, which also lays waste to a fertile premise.
Nobody in this movie is really appealing enough to be much fun. The state of New Jersey should sue.
