“u0026quot;My Momu0026#39;s New Boyfriendu0026quot; has got what it takes, well nearly. It starts off on a very interesting note and builds up to a quite nice premise with adequate fresh gaffes sprinkled at regular intervals. Sadly it loses steam towards the end and becomes quite predictable. Meg Ryan is a big downer, she chugs and splutters all over the place. Antonio Banderas is smooth and suave, reprising his u0026quot;Zorrou0026quot; performance. Colin Hanks failed to deliver the goods thereby the movie doesnu0026#39;t quite register an impact. Selma Blair was merely a stocking filler. The climax portions seems to have been written by a 10-year old kid, very lame!u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eVerdict: Can pass off as a popcorn evening on a rainy day.”
