Monster-in-Law (2005 Robert Luketic)

Jane Fonda is so desperate not to lose son Michael Vartan to Jennifer Lopez she tries to do everything she can to break it up, aided somewhat grudgingly by her PA Wanda Sykes, who has the best lines. Adam Scott is a friend, Elaine Stritch cameos. It's as silly as it sounds.

Of course Fonda's character needs a love interest. It would have been fun if at the end, one of her former co-stars - Donald Sutherland, for example - had made an appearance.
