So I went to see this Dennis Quaid and Sarah Jessica Parker film today with she who I believe has chosen to go as kikimonster here at Bloodless Coup. I'd give it a thumbs up. I'd warn that it's about some almost impossible to like people. And so it takes a while to get into it. Oh, and Ellen Page needs to play some other kind of role fast because her work in this just seemed like a reprise of her performance in Juno. But there's a lot else to the movie, and all in all, once you got to the end credits, it was something I'd enjoyed. Nice music too.

So maybe the character I liked most was the son (who was also well played) - I mean he seemed to find a balance.
