Kay (Meryl Streep) and Arnold (Tommy Lee Jones) are a devoted couple, but decades of marriage have left Kay wanting to spice things up and reconnect with her husband. When she hears of a renowned couple's specialist (Steve Carell) in the small town of Great Hope Springs, she attempts to persuade her skeptical husband, a steadfast man of routine, to get on a plane for a week of marriage therapy. Just convincing the stubborn Arnold to go on the retreat is hard enough � the real challenge for both of them comes as they shed their bedroom hang-ups and try to re-ignite the spark that caused them to fall for each other in the first place.This was a cute relationship movie. You care about the characters and the situation that they are in/going through. And both of them did a great job. The movie was definitely watchable, but outside of seeing where these two characters end up - there really is no major point to the movie.
I would recommend this to anyone who is a Meryl Streep fan or can identify with the level of their relationship I guess. Again - the characters are well portrayed but there is no overall point to the movie.
