'Mother's Day' - Movie Review
'Mother's Day'
U/A; Comedy-drama
Director: Garry Marshall
Cast: Jennifer Aniston, Kate Hudson, Julia Roberts, Jason Sudeikis
Rating: 
Quite a line-up of star names propel this homage to mothers everywhere but the story and treatment unfortunately fails to rise to the occasion. Garry Marshall has built an entire franchise of formulaic romantic comedies and this one is no different. He gets together the hottest stars and casts them in roles that show them as humans longing for love and redemption. And it’s all conveniently tied in to a sentiment-tugging day. In ‘Mother’s Day’, the lives of five families and seven mothers are woven together to regurgitate the successful formula.
