Otherhood (2019 Cindy Chupack)

Mothers Angela Bassett (Poliakoff's Close To The Enemy), Patricia Arquette and Felicity Huffman (currently in court on college admission scam charges) visit sons Sinqua Walls, Jake (son of Dustin) Hoffman and Jake Lacy (Carol, Girls, Fosse/Verdon) as they feel they're being neglected - turns out mums all have issues which the boys help straighten out in the rather neat way you're expecting right from the outset, down to the pukey 'one year later' coda.

A few laughs - not as bad as it could have been. Although the word 'pabulum' did come to me more than once.

Written by Chupack and Mark Andrus (As Good As it Gets, And So It Goes) from William Sutcliffe's novel; photographed by Declan Quinn.
