First question, is this family genre like being noted in many film website? Definitely, not! In first 15 minutes, this film has promising opening, In the middle, when relationship between the older woman (Kelly) and the younger man (Cal) starts weaving, please, It almost disgust me, but thank God, in last 30 minutes it turns out to be it should be. This film has a good and authentic message for you, a new-turned mother, to keep behave. And in this film, it's a real show. But it wouldn't be good if Juliette Lewis and Jonny Weston didn't do their best in this movie. Expand

It's an odd little film about infatuation, infidelity and postpartum depression.

One can't help but compare this to other teen boy/older woman films ("The Graduate" "My Tutor" "Clément") but "Kelly & Cal" doesn't follow any formula with
It's an odd little film about infatuation, infidelity and postpartum depression.

One can't help but compare this to other teen boy/older woman films ("The Graduate" "My Tutor" "Clément") but "Kelly & Cal" doesn't follow any formula with which I am familiar. It is an interesting look at how the loss of something precious, be it one's youthful self or the use of one's limbs, can cause a period of mourning.

I give high marks for the genuine chemistry between the leads. There are truly funny moments in this film and a smidgen of heartfelt emotion but, on the whole, it's just there.

I was entertained but not overwhelmed.
