There’s a gay, black BFF living down the hall, a suffocatingly adorable mom, a handsome Jewish doctor, the obligatory Hallmark greeting card romantic interlude (parasailing, anyone?), characters who break out into spontaneous sing-alongs, and Whoopi Goldberg as God. What separates this from all the other chick flicks out there? Colon cancer! It’s bad enough Kate Hudson succumbs to this material. Don’t let it bring you down. Nicole Kassell directs. With: Gael Garcia Bernal and Kathy Bates. (2011) — Scott Marks
