Synopsis: Two sisters, one a workaholic lawyer, the other a jobless bimbo. They fight and the bimbo sister goes to Florida to meet her estranged grandmother. The lawyer sister decides to quit her job after a love affair with a colleague goes awry.
Appraisal: Although the first, say, 20 minutes of this film establishes a potentially interesting situation, it is clear from then on that nothing will come of it; it then just adds more and more story bits that become more and more tedious and perfunctory. Some of it makes little sense, such as the lawyer sister's decision to switch to a supposedly less demanding and less stressing occupation (note: echoes of American Beauty (1999), only there it made sense, or so I thought); the inevitable resolution is forced upon us in the usual unconvincing manner.
