When her high-school sweetheart proposes, Megan panics and- given an unexpected opportunity to escape for a week – hides out in the home of her new friend, 16-year old Annika and Annika’s world-weary single dad Craig.

Kiera, Sam and Chloe Nailed It. Director Sucked Me In, And I Was Hooked
Wasn’t expecting to like this film as much as I did.First, Sam Rockwell has got to be one of the best actors to work with. He is naturally so cool and his confidence on screen must be contagious. I have never seen him put up anything but an A-Game level performance.
Second, no one plays the girl we all want to fall in love with (who is sincere, cool, fun, and romantic) than Kiera Knightley. Kiera and Sam? Would never see it working on paper. Totally worked on the screen.
Third, Chloe Grace Moretz is one talented and poised young actress whose resume is amazing at such a young age. I anticipate Chloe will take home a lot of hardware in her career.
Finally, Lynn Shelton paces this film perfectly. Her best effort to date.
I love this movie. I just saw it for the 3rd time (May 2020)… Trust me, and see this movie. Let the story develop and unfold (“wait for it”), and I bet you say the same thing by the end.
Nicely done to all involved! ????????????
Don’t lag in finding Laggies, its terrific; Hollywood has done us wrong by NOT producing more flicks like this
Megan (Keira Knightley) has been part of a group of eight friends since childhood. Six of the members have married off between them. However, Megan and her “partner” have lagged behind. In addition to this, Megan is confused about continuing her chosen profession in marital counseling, as she is having a total quarter life crisis. Lo and behold, at another wedding, Megan’s beau gets down on one knee. In a panic, Megan secretly leaves the reception and ends up near a carryout, where Annika (Chloe Grace Moretz) is waiting, with friends, to find a stooge to buy booze for them. Its Megan. She agrees to do so, with some scruples. Soon, a friendship develops between the older gal and the high school student. Thus, Annika asks Megan to pose as her divorced mother in a counseling session at school while Megan asks Annika if she can lay low at her house for a week, avoiding her almost-fiancé. It happens but Annika’s DAD, Craig (Sam Rockwell) has to give his permission first. This offbeat, divorce lawyer is skeptical but Megan wins him over. Now, Annika and Megan both have each other to “find their ways” respectively. Hold on, what if Megan’s search leads her to fall for someone else? This lovely, inventive movie should have been given big advertising bucks when it was released but, as it was, no one discovered it. In my town, Toledo, it was around for a solitary week. I missed it, so thank heavens for libraries. Knightley, Moretz, and Rockwell are flat-out wonderful while the supporting players do nice jobs, too. Scenery, costumes, the tremendous script and the comical direction make Laggies a total delight. Don’t lag, folks, this one is meant to be seen ASAP.
