I read a review that said something like this was a lifetime channel movie but no it's not. It goes nowhere, very boring

Lifetime has better shows
None so boring
If the first 15 minutes doesn't do it for you, press eject. I kept watching because of the two good reviews. I thought I would get this great reward at the end for suffering. But that's all I did was suffer through a boring movie.
There are several well noted actresses doing this D- movie. I don't think there is a more boring movie with this many good actresses in it. This movie belongs on the Lifetime channel, maybe. The writing is poor, the story line is barely breathing. Everything else is typical for a lifetime channel movie. I don't understand why there are good reviews for this movie. There is no special ending, no gotcha moment, it is wrong to have this many great actresses doing such a bad movie.
She is not my aunt
This is a story of the relationships of five mothers and daughters that are not perfect. They all live in the same apartment building and this is similar to the semi-anthology films that take the names of holidays and try to come across as something clever and with a heart warming message. This film is no different.
Rigby (Selma Blair) is a photographer who loves black and white so it always looks artsy. We don't see much of her mother. Georgina (Mira Sorvino) is a bra designer. Gayle (Eva Amurri Martino) left her parents to help her man Kevin ( Paul Wesley) follow his dream. Layla (Alexandra Daniels) is a designer who wants to do things on her own and not take a handout from her mom (Sharon Stone). And Rebecca (Christina Ricci) well....her relationship to her mother is just so messed, it is not believable, although I am sure someone will tell me it happened to them.
The problem with the film is that it tries too hard to create feel good situations by creating faux drama, it felt forced. We never get attached to the characters long enough to feel anything with the
