It's like a Lifetime movie with high production values. The big plot twist seemed pretty obvious. The relationship between Ryan Gosling's character and his boss defies logic. There were a couple of humorous lines of dialog, but otherwise just terrible.
Oh, and all of the worry in the "pulling the plug" scene was completely preposterous. Clearly the medical staff was conducting several tests to confirm that the woman met the criteria for brain death. This happens every day and is not controversial. Except in lame made-for-TV movies.

The Heartbreak Kid -- D-
Staring Ben and Jerry Stiller, this looked promising (once I determined that it was not Along Came Polly, although it may be a lamer and crasser version of the same script -- they share a few plot points). Sadly, it turned out to be, well, a lamer and crasser version of Along Came Polly.
Avoid it.
Avoid it.
