Laura (Jenna Fischer) is a dental hygienist who smokes and drinks. Her husband dies and the real reason for the illness was not honestly disclosed by the doctor. Laura's son Dennis is fascinated with his father and lies about his death to his classmates. Her brother in law has distinct methods in parenting despite an unhappy marriage. Soundtrack was good and acting superb especially from Fischer. Something was quite missing however the constant swearing, pot smoking and annoying Lawyer can be irritating. Had a few laughable scenes but the drama dominated. A Little Help however exemplified how conflicts with marriage, lies, parenting and adjustments were made with a few regrets along the way.

As much as I like Jenna Fischer as Pam in The Office I really wanted to like this movie.It started out good & I thought I was going to like it but towards the middle it began to fall apart.A Little Help was disappointing because it turned out not to be such a great movie.I don't know what it was but I didn't care too much for the ending either.I guess I had my hopes set way too high
