My Thoughts

In this film, Joy Miles plays a mom who never puts down her phone. She has little in common with her mother-in-law, but still decides to help her move. While on the road, Joy starts to appreciate the advantages of Loraine's free spirit. Though she has a high-stakes project on the line, she learns to put her phone down for a while and appreciate the little things in life. 

This is a really fun family film about family that shows us that a mother-in-law isn't always that bad. There are lots of laughs, but also some heartwarming moments as well. Both women learn a few things about each other, and about the importance of family.
