Critic's review of Monster-In-Law

- "This will end badly" says the assistant to the screaming neurotic ex-tv personality played by Jane Fonda in full harridan mode in her first screen role in fifteen years. She doesn't know the half of it: it also begins badly and the middle is no better.

  Monster-In-Law (2005)
  
  I really enjoyed this chick flick. Jennifer Lopez is a great actress and coupled with Jane Fonda, they made a dynamic duo.

  Not one for a cozy night in.
  
  This is one film which had a story line that was not realy very clear. I stopped watching less than half way through, and didn't feel I had missed anything... read more »

  Easy watching
  
  Not bad I wouldn't watch it again. Surprising to see Jane Fonda and Jennifer Lopez in this sort of situation comedy but a bit ridiculous really

  It's light hearted
  
  I reccomend it if you're a fan of Jennifer Lopez or the other actors, since this is a good movie. But not the best I've seen from Jen.

  Excellent laugh! Fonda is great.
  
  Jane Fonda was excellent in this movie as the bitchy jealous mother-in-law. J-Lo is Fonda's future daughter-in-law and also gives a good performance. This ... read more »

  Not as great as I thought
  
  Although this film had some pretty funny parts, altogether it was a bit slow. After seeing the previews for it I thought it was going to be hilarious.
