Pleasant Surprise for What to Expect movie

Of course there were two reasons why I was worried about this movie:  #1 Cameron Diaz (we all know she over does it in chick flicks) and #2 Too many actors and feared a second New Years Eve castastrophe! However, I was pleasantly surprised by this movie's ability to bring a tear to my eye.  Perhaps its because I'm a mommy and can relate, but I felt it went deeper than that.  The women were relateable in their own way and Elizabeth Banks stole the show as the best "mommy" of the group.  The surprised hightlight was the "daddy's group" perspective!  You ached for the women and laughed with the men.  Yes, there were some cheezy parts and maybe could have done without a few characters, but this was definitely worth the matinee viewing with a girlfriend! 

Overall Rating: A-
