One of the poorer films I've watched this year. From the out-of-place soundtrack, to the nonsense decisions of the main character, and finally the ham-fisted 'emotional impact' the movie so desperately wants you to feel, I did not have any fun watching this movie. They would have had to have added an 'aww' track to make this movie any more obvious. The only saving grace was Brendan Fraser's surprising performance. If the movie had been about his characters conflict with his estranged former family, I'm sure this would have been a recommended movie. Instead you see a good fifteen minutes of him, and close to two hours of a pregnant hobo crying.
