Review of Life As We Know It (2010) by Tom V — 15 Aug 2011

I gotta say that this movie is rather cute and funny at the same time, and the baby who plays Sophie (they are triplets) is rather cute. :) The movie starts off with Holly and Eric being set up on a blind date, as they are both friends of a couple they know...Eric being long time friends with Peter and Holly being friends with Alison, who are Sophie's father and mother respectively. Although Eric and Holly's first meeting does not go well. :) They later become Sophie's godparents and some time after Sophie's first birthday, Peter and Alison are killed in a car accident, leaving custody of Sophie to both Eric and Holly, as stated in their will.

So from here, the story takes on these two single people who are in charge of a baby and of which neither has experience taking care of one. And the neighbours seem to love Eric which is rather funny. Some of the women and even a gay couple adore him. :) So seeing how they handle raising a child that wasn't theirs to begin with, but who they both truly love and adore. Also how they can interact with each other and make things work, both in personal and professional lives. And to share the responsibilities that life brings.

So yeah, I thought it funny and I did like the actors and all. Although this movie wouldn't be for everyone, I hope you can enjoy it if you get to see it. And I guess it makes you think if you were ever in such a position, what might you do?
