HOME AGAIN
DIRECTOR: Hallie Meyers-Shyer
CAST: Reese Witherspoon, Pico Alexander Back in 2009, Catherine Zeta-Jones starred in forgettable rom-com The Rebound, about a single mum who falls in love with her male nanny. This is essentially the same film, with Reese Witherspoon on cougar duty as Alice, a recently-separated mother-of-two who lets three guys stay in her house because they are “aspiring filmmakers”. Mm-hmm *sips tea*. Needless to say, Alice’s relationship status goes from single to craycray, sweetened with syrupy Southern charm as only Witherspoon can deliver. Overall, it’s disappointing and like The Rebound, would be better off going direct-to-DVD.
