Editorial Reviews

A man tries to figure out why his best friend isn't his mother in this comedy written and directed by Albert Brooks. John Henderson (Brooks) is a neurotic, self-obsessed writer whose relationships with women have been almost uniformly disastrous. Middle-aged and single, John decides that he must come to terms with his problems with women, and he decides to start with the first significant female relationship of his life -- his mother, Beatrice (Debbie Reynolds). John arrives at Beatrice's house and announces that he's moving back into his old room until he can resolve his issues with her. Beatrice politely plays along, but she is more puzzled by John's behavior than anything else. John and Beatrice soon find that they spend less time trying to resolve their differences than arguing if salads can be frozen or if you can really tell the difference between premium ice cream and the supermarket's store brand. Rob Morrow plays John's brother, and Lisa Kudrow plays one of John's less compatible blind dates. Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

Great movie to have in your library.by Anonymous

May 10, 2009: Fun movie to see with the family (over 13), friends or for a fun date night. It'll make you laugh over and over. I saw this when it came out in 2001. It is still just as funny today. Debbie Reynolds & Albert Brooks are hilarious as mother / son.

the best line from the filmby Anonymous

April 13, 2007: The best line from the whole film is when he mother says, "I love you..." and Brooks replies, "I know you think you do...". It is side splitting and has stuck with me for so long now, that whenever I hear some female in my own neurotic family say it, that is what goes through my head.
