Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
TIAM is a frequently very funny and always heartfelt look at the problems encountered by a single Mom who is forced to move from the big city back into her parents home in small town America.With her 3 young daughters (played by the actresses real life daughters) in tow and no prospects for any work (aside from her poor attempts to succeed as a singer/songwriter) she much navigate the difficulties of living with here quirky parents and finding a meaningful job in a very small town.All of the actors did a fine job - in particular C. Fraser Press in the lead role and her 3 very talented daughters.Recommended to all lovers of realistic family humor and quirky family dynamics.
