Despite her already hectic schedule, however, Helen finds the time to develop a genuine affection for her new dependents, as well as an equally genuine attraction to Dan Parker (John Corbett), the kids' school principal and local pastor.

Helen an odd choice, especially when oldest sister Jenny (Joan Cusack) presides over her own family and is a natural matriarch.
Jenny, herself, can’t understand why the children would be left in Helen’s care when she’s an overworked assistant at a burgeoning model agency who’s at the beck and call of her insistent boss (a woefully miscast Helen Mirren).
Marshall thinks he has an idea worth exploring — career woman puts life on hold for the good of the family — but falls back on fantasy when a dose of reality is necessary.

Helen enrolls the kids in a Lutheran school where the principal, nice, handsome Pastor Dan (John Corbett), watches out for them while making goo-goo eyes at their hottie aunt.
Helen experiences the predictable ups-and-downs of raising three grief-stricken kids — OK, they're not all that grief-stricken, but they each have their particular problems dealing with the deaths of their parents, which Helen must recognize and resolve.
The movie cuts to the chase so quickly there's no real sense of who Helen was before the kids came into her life and it's easy to agree with her when she says she doesn't know who she is without the kids.

Working at a modeling agency for the demanding Dominique (HelenMirren), Helen spends her nights haunting the hottest clubs, her days in the glitz and glamour of the fashion world.
Helen's sister and her husband are killed in an accident and Helen, not her supermaternal older sister Jenny (Joan Cusack), is left to care for their three children, 15-year-old Audrey (Hayden Panettiere), 10-year-old Henry (Spencer Breslin) and 5-year-old Sarah (Abigail Breslin).
The rest of the film plods predictably along, right to the happy ending that is yet another Hollywood reconfirmation of the virtues of raising a family in comparison with the selfishness of Helen's single life.

 SPLICEDwire | "Raising Helen" movie review (2004) "Raising Helen" review, Garry Marshall, Kate Hudson, John Corbett
At its heart, "Raising Helen" may be another shopworn story of a harried, young Cosmopolitan Career Gal in for a cosmic life lesson about her priorities.
And it's not a movie in which answers and aptitude come on cue for Hudson's title character, a chic handler at a Manhattan modeling agency whose rising star is shot down when three kids are thrust upon her after her sister is killed in a car accident.
But as soon as Helen sits down with the three kids -- petulant 15-year-old Audrey (talented, beautiful Hayden Panettiere, "Ally McBeal"), 10-year-old Henry (hammy Spencer Breslin, "The Cat in the Hat") and 5-year-old Sarah (Breslin's button-cute sister Abigail, "Signs") -- the movie shows unexpected promise that grows and grows.

 Raising Helen English Movie Review - 'Raising Helen' - Preview, Wallpaper, Stills, Screensaver, Trailer
Most of the episodes devised to accentuate Helen's upturned life are so banal they make you blush by their blandness.
There's a sequence when her new adopted little girl walks right on to the ramp walkers and even trips one model over...much to the horror of Helen's boss (played by that wonderful actress Helen Mirrem), the archetypal woman in a tuxedo.
Helen's Indian neighbour, played by Sakina Jaffrey who rushes in with samosas and a baseball bat to rescue the flurried new mom, is a spunky homage to ethnicity in this rendition of the American Dream.
