Catch and Release

Bride-to-be Gray Wheeler's (Garner) perfect life is turned upside down when her fiance dies on a fishing trip just days before their wedding. If that wasn't bad enough, Gray discovers that her former would-be husband was hiding some pretty big secrets - like the fact that he has fathered a child to massage therapist Maureen (Lewis), who arrives in town with her son when the monthly cheques stop coming. So the last thing she needs is to fall in love with her ex-fiance's best friend Fritz (Olyphant), a guy she previously dismissed for an overgrown child. From the writer of In Her Shoes, 28 Days, Ever After and Erin Brockovich, this is Susannah Grant's directorial debut. If you're hoping Catch and Release is an intriguing insight into one woman's struggle in a world that seems hell bent on stopping her succeed - just like Erin Brockovich - but word around the campfire is that it's another yawn-fest wannabe chick flick that ticks all the boxes without offering anything original and is just a rehash of everything that has gone before - just like In Her Shoes.
