Planet Janet is a cute little coming of age drama following the complex relationships of single mother Janet played by Julianne Nicholson as her daughter Lacy played by Zoe Ziegler tries to connect with her.  Both actresses do a great job, but the story itself just doesn't hit and ultimately drags on as this woman seems to be stuck her own self loathing.
