If I Had Legs I'd Kick You


With her life crashing down around her, Linda (Rose Byrne) attempts to navigate her child's mysterious illness, her absent husband, a missing person, and an increasingly hostile relationship with her therapist.
Let me save you some time - White Wine Mom makes every mistake a parent can, with a huge addict personality. Her only saving grace from being the "CPS Worthy" parent is that she also works. Every 10-15 minutes or so you're reminded there is a husband by a very forced phone-call with an "Always Absent Father" that came right from a Lifetime movie. The rest of the time is filled with a drunken woman eating, very awkwardly and forced, on camera, drunken screaming, or the child (or another baby) screaming at max volume.
This feels like it was written for people who feel like their life is in a whirlpool of "bad luck", which is ironic since the entire principal of the movie is just that this one person keeps making bad decisions over and over, and in reality has a reasonably easy life.
How it is so highly rated is beyond me.
