The casting of Nancy Meyers films is more impressive than her formula driven and high gloss films. So that everybody always wants to know who she will get next in her next film. All the actors are more than capable and deliver some version of their performances you have seen in their previous work. However in this film the divine Kate Winslet brings more gravitas to the role than you would expect in this kind of film. She also rubs off her magic to Jack Black who delivers a nice performance. It's also good to see Eli Wallach again. YRCinema's coverage of films on DVD.
