Predictable, but watchable

The IMDB summary gives you the whole movie but the ending. And once you read this plot premise, you know it can end only one of two ways.....and you can lay pretty good odds on which way will go. So, much of the 124 minute runtime is filled with the uncomfortable anguish of all the affected characters, except for grandpa, as they wrestle through the typical drama of such a circumstance. The anguish tends toward the melodramatic at times, but since you've got 6 characters to get through, you do get some variation off the same theme, which makes it watchable. The principal characters are all Hollywood good-looking and are otherwise portrayed as accomplished for their respective ages, which keeps this from being a 'sad' movie along the way.
