A funny and truthful movie about growing up and raising a family. Charlize Theron's performance is wise and heartfelt.

Great characters and fabulous actors

Heartfelt portrayal of motherhood and her journey to self discovery

A character driven film with whipsmart dialogue and a wonderfully natural performance by hairline Theron moves the film along although the surprise M. Night Shaymalan reveal near the end somewhat turns the film into a minor mystery that doesn't really jive with the rest of the film.
