Because I Said So
BECAUSE I SAID SO: (C-) In this loud and forced comedy, a driven mother (Diane Keaton of “The Family Stone”) is obsessed with finding an eligible bachelor for her youngest daughter (Mandy Moore of “A Walk to Remember”). Those suitors include a down-to-earth architect (Tom Everett Scott of “One True Thing”) and a head-in-the-clouds rocker (Gabriel Macht of “The Good Shepherd”). The well-meaning but misguided mom also meddles in the affairs of her other two daughters (Lauren Graham of TV’s “Gilmore Girls” and Piper Perabo of “Coyote Ugly”). Michael Lehmann (“The Truth About Cats and Dogs”) directed the disappointing picture. Quality rating based on Web and wire-service reports. (102 minutes) Adult dialogue, mature themes, partial nudity. (PG-13)
