Monster-In-Law is a very undemanding but reasonably entertaing film. It’s all very predictable, but there are enough laughs to raise it above the average Hollywood comedy. Jane Fonda came out of retirement to play Viola Fields, and I don’t think she would have any reason to regret that decision.

Even though the central storyline is of an engaged couple it is no way a RomCom which, in my book, is a good thing!

If you’re looking for a simple uncomplicated comedy, then this is worth a look.
