Mack & Rita Review: Hyperactive Aging Comedy Falls Flat

A thirty-year-old writer with an older soul and sensibility is magically aged forty years. Mack & Rita takes the concept from the classic Big and fumbles it with a scattered approach. The bubbly, montage-driven narrative has streaks of romance and melodrama that make little sense. Themes of empowerment and being true to yourself are spoon-fed with a syrupy delivery. There's never a moment of real tension. You know exactly where the plot is going from the first act. The always likable Diane Keaton gets a few chuckles from an exuberant lead performance.
