Monster-in-Law
2005
Office temp Charlotte Cantilini (Jennifer Lopez) thinks she's found Mr. Right when she starts dating gorgeous surgeon Dr. Kevin Fields (Michael Vartan). But there's a problem standing in the way of everlasting bliss: Kevin's overbearing and controlling mother, Viola (Jane Fonda). Fearing she'll lose her son's affections forever, Viola decides to break up the happy couple by becoming the world's worst mother-in-law. Wanda Sykes co-stars.
Synopsis compliments of Netflix
Comedy, Romance
Jane Fonda is a little grating, but Jennifer Lopez and Michael Vartan have great chemistry. It helps that Wanda Sykes and Elaine Stritch are excellent comic relief. The ending was overly cute, but that was expected so it wasn't a huge detriment.
