This movie is about one house and 3 families each a generation apart. It is very confusing even before you realize that there are pieces to this jigsaw puzzle to link together. To me that is the only redeeming thing about this movie - trying to figure it all out. Sure there is a theme about family. There is the repeated idea that parents don't know what they are doing and just work it out but that's ok.
There is one neighbor who is common to all the stories - Lizzie. Of course she ages according to which family she is neighbor to.
The first couple gets deluged with both sides of their family immediately after they first moved in. The second is a widow about to remarry and move who has just informed her two grown children. The last couple is two married men who are taking in a little girl as a foster child hoping that their house remodeling gets finished before the child arrives.
Each family faces some surprise crisis which creates drama and humor.
I'm a huge fan of Erin Cahill and a big fan of Catherine Bell so I was hoping for more.
