My Mom’s New Boyfriend (2008)

after 2 continuous Seth comedies i wanted to see another style of comedy to ease or wash down the taste and surfing though the sites i though to use the filters and set 2008 the year i consider the best film year, and randomizing other filters i end up with a list in which this films title caught my eye, why you ask it was so similar to the blue film titles that i just got intrigued.

right off the bat this is another lazy Saturday film

its a story about a FBI agent (Colin Hanks) getting assigned to case where his own mothers (Meg Ryan) new boyfriend (Antonio Banderas) is a suspected art thief, and the awkward situation that arises through it.

the fact is the film initially seems interesting, it has the genic points through out but all in all its starts strong, but ones Antonio gets introduced you cant help but guess how the film will follow through and it irritates me that the film chooses such a simple and easy to see through choice Spoilers Antonio was actually CIA undercover agent dramatic music please. now not only this reveals fault the film itself lacks enough momentum to carry the plot forward and seems out of things to do as the film reaches its climax and then winds its out in a very underwhelming manner. well the only saving grace was i had none expectations from the get go, and going the save route left no means to attack the film, that’s that i guess.
