Hope Springs (2012)
1/10
Boring, tasteless, and why it was rated PG-13???
11 August 2012
The story does not have anything that would be even slightly interesting. It was to the point that after therapy session number three I turned to my husband and asked if we would have to sit through ALL of their therapy sessions for the price of the admission to the movie? What was the whole point of the movie? Was it intended to be an educational manual to various things the couples 55+ should try while attempting to save their marriage? Some ratings stated that this is an issue of the whole aging generation. What is exactly the issue? The deny of the oral sex to each other, or lack of threesome to spice up the marriage, or the tight budget? The scenes of a wife attempting to have intimacy with her husband at all costs while he is refusing to perform are tasteless and a waste of time for the viewers and the actors. Unless someone is really intrigued by why this not even slightly attractive and visibly aged man denies simple pleasure to his not so bad looking for her age wife, movie has no other thought to offer.

Why would someone rate a movie with past middle-aged masturbating woman scene and her going down on him in the movie theater scene PG-13? Would parents be comfortable watching it with their even 16+ years old kids? We walked out after the scene in which the wife unsuccessfully tries to "sacrifice" herself to the attempt of the oral sex. If there would be less than one star to give, I would give it.
