    Awful chemistry, poor house had to be subjected to all this immaturity

    The acting is so poor by the woman that I am embarrassed to admit I am a woman. The immaturity in incomprehensible. The guy is bad but mostly from the poor chemistry. The insanity that spews from her mouth as she butchers the script, it she drunk all the time? Also the script itself is ludicrous. You can google the price of the wine before she breaks the bottles. Just shows how stupid they both are. How were they rich previously? Mommy and Daddy. Enough.

    Anyone who's ever DIY remodeled will understand!! LOL

    It's kind of an updated version of The Money Pit premise. Novertheless a fun movie.

    At first, like most other reviewers, I was annoyed by Dan because he's a self-centered bonehead, and Anne is a whiny, spoiled woman-child! They eventually grow on you, and then you can see them transform and rekindle their relationship, which is much appreciated! (Frankly, less than 1/2 way through the move, I wanted to punch Anne...The Wine Cellar scene, especially!!!!)

    This storyline perfectly blended the issues of money problems and doing a remodel as a couple who don't really know what they're doing; the annoyance and frustration involved, which thankfully turned into better understanding and teamwork. We've all been there, man! LOL

    Give this one a shot. It'll be worth it.

    Not the best

    This was ok to watch but it is surely not the best I have ever seen, Hard to recommend. James Welch Henderson, Arkansas 1/17/2021

    Very slow, predictable. Fast forwarded to end!

    It felt incomplete, with gaping holes in the storyline and an unsatisfying resolution that should have happened way earlier in the story. Pacing was treacherous slow. Too bad.

    The woman is an idiot.

    How can you enjoy a movie when one of the main characters is so unlikable? The woman is a whiny spoiled idiot who doesn't know how to do anything. The guy doesn't know how to do anything either but at he's not as annoying. She goes back to this nice house that was left to her by her parents and she doesn't seem to know anything about the house. It's ridiculous.
