There is just entirely too much going on in this picture.
Despite the fact that Pierce Brosnan is hopelessly miscast as the husband to a very old looking Susan Sarandon, the film goes on and on and could conceivably rival "Peyton Place."
When their son is killed in an auto accident and his girlfriend injured, the parents soon learn she is pregnant. Mother Sarandon is bitchy and refuses to accept the girl. The younger brother meets a girl at grief counseling and they like each other until he finds out something about her. Exhausted, Brosnan appears to have a coronary, but doesn't, while his son lights up a joint in another room.
The guy involved in the fatal accident comes out of a coma and tells Sarandon that her son's last words were that he loved the girlfriend. When Sarandon hears these words, suddenly she looks better and everyone is happy.
Come on. We know that people deal with grief differently but this is a little too much to take.
