The idea of this movie seemed interesting but ended in disappointment and boredom.
The movie is about a a selfish, mediocre business man (Tim Allen) who suffers from commitment phobia. His daughter (Elisha Cuthbert) resents him for always having to clean up his messes. He gets in an accident in Mexico and is presumed dead. All of the women in his past gather together for his funeral and fight over what they think his final wishes would be. I am not going to spoil the rest for those who want to see it. *hint the ending is completely obvious
I was disappointed with the acting in this movie. I thought for the most part everyone did a terrible job, but I was most dissatisfied with Elisha Cuthbert's performance.
Cuthbert remained unemotional throughout the entire film. Even at the "sappy" moments you could tell her reactions were forced. The role just did not fit her personality. She still tried to wear it like over sized t-shirt, but it just made her look "baggy".
Overall the movie was cheesy and predictable with a shallow plot. It wasn't a complete waste of time, but if you value your time STAY AWAY!

I like reading your little "advice hints", like "if you value your time don't waste it on this"! OR, "if you don't like the first season, don't bother. It doesn't get better"! Good choice of wording!
