Because I Said So

Most people can find it in themselves to appreciate a good chick flick every once in a while. Is Because I Said So one of the good ones? It involves a single mother just about to turn 60, with only one of her three daughters yet unmarried. She is constantly trying to control her daighter's love life, and after she creates an online dating profile for her daughter, things get way out of control, and people get hurt. In the end though, everyone winds up happy. Personally, I found the meddeling mother frusterating and the way that sex is viewed in this less than conventional family to be too promiscuous for my taste. However, the movie did have the required fairy tale ending, and some great humor. Is this movie a creative gem or a flouncy flop?

I agree, it was a bit risque. I wouldn't want to watch it with my family, it would be to uncomfortable, this is a movie you watch with friends. The mother in the movie was very annoying. But there was a lot of humor. I liked the movie, it is creative, but i dont think its a gem.

Creative gem for sure. I liked it alot. It had some enjoyable laughs and were all critics in a sense. Not the best I've seen, but well worth a viewing.
