I saw this today and really enjoyed it. The little boy who plays Timothy nails it; a 'slightly too perfect' kid where something is just not right.
Garner is a delight as his mother, whereas his 'father' falls a little flat for me. His girl friend is a charmer and his uncle Budd is wonderful. The photography is beautiful, and the music appropriate.
I wish they'd fleshed out his character and his relationship with his parents and girl friend instead of spending so much time on 2 subplots: one is about Timothy's father and HIS father, which leads to an endless sub sub plot about soccer, the most boring activity ever devised by man. The other subplot involves Jennifer Garner's sister, who played Rachel in Rachel Getting Married, which will go down in history as the soccer of motion pictures.
A good date movie, a good couples movie and a good family movie.
