Watchable, particularly because of Bette Midler, but nothing to write home about.

something tells me I won't remember this movie for too long

"Dialogue is a blunt-force trauma in Hunt's directorial debut, which behaves like some avant-garde theatre production where all the stage directions are spoken aloud." - Ed Gonzalez

Watching the first half of "Then She Found Me", I was reminded of "Waitress" and was certain I was going to be treated to a second helping of a movie I so much liked. The tone was light-hearted and fun. But, as is so typical with Helen Hunt movies, somewhere toward the middle, the movie starts taking itself too seriously, and what was fun to watch becomes depressing to watch. Surprisingly, Bette Midler seems to be miscast as a Helen Hunt's long-lost (boisterous) birth mother.

It just didn't have what it took to hold me in. If it were a little richer, a little more charming, a little more exciting, or a little more dramatic it might have started to work, but it didn't.

good cast, stupid, annoying script.

The only good part of the movie was Bette Midler. There isnt much to say about this movie, its extremely predictable.

I never Helen Hunt could be so annoying. And she had total creative control over this, she directed in and cast herself into the leading role.

I normally love Helen Hunt - but Bette Midler carried this one.
