When Lana Winslow (Brooke Shields) goes to Phuket to see her daughter (Miranda Cosgrove) get married, she has no idea that she will be reunited with the man (Benjamin Bratt) who broke her heart decades ago.
They’re trying to sell this romantic comedy by highlighting the fact that director Mark Waters once made Mean Girls. If only this movie had a bit of bite, an amount of wit, instead of relying entirely on a forgettable formula.
Much of it is pleasant enough, and the Thailand locations add flavor.
