This romantic comedy and coming-of-age film commands attention for its powerhouse cast which included John Ritter, Sigourney Weaver , Bebe Neuwirth and Aaron Stanford. The story is a bit unusual, that of a 15-year old boy who is in love with his stepmother but along the way you forget about the nuances as one becomes engrossed with the stellar acting prowess of Neuwirth, Weaver and Ritter. Director Winick, known for films like Letters to Juliet and Charlotte's Web playfully tweaks things although I find the title quite misleading , well, sort of.
