Nicole Holofcener

The later seasons after the showrunner's departure being generally weaker (and in one of TV history's more surprising character developments, gradually turning formerly adorable Rory's character into an entitled, callous and rather unlikable person) is the only reason this is not a five star show. And I'm still hovering at 4.7-4.8 and could really be rounding it either way. Heartfelt, sweet, and oh so funny, this is everything a light-hearted family drama should be.

There are some amusing moments in this, and the acting is believable enough, although it’s a bit of a strange film without a great deal of plot. We could relate to the trauma of seeing one’s offspring depart for university, knowing they’re moving on and becoming separate. But the complexity of relationships, and the acceptance of divorce and remarriage as ‘normal’ was a bit depressing, and some of the humour was not really to our tastes.

The film is quite fast-paced, under an hour show more and a half in all, and we quite liked it, though it’s not one we’d necessarily watch again.
