Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts or Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan? This one features
Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts. A movie
about some real life situations that become
less real and more about movie situations.
Which is good, because movie situations
seem to make romantic comedies that are
also about economic realities more
enjoyable. I don't think you can really go
wrong by hanging out and watching this one.
Just as you can't go wrong with The
Terminal, You've Got Mail, Sleepless in
Seattle or Joe vs. the Volcano. However,
don't expect to be as devastated as you were
at the end of said gems. Those four are just nectar. No doubt some poofter representations of
the stereotypical community college students. Then again, I went to school with some poofter
representations that were actually real people. I wonder though, if Tom Hanks is getting older,
in a way that he is losing his grip on what's really going on? As a producer, he is making me
wonder a bit. I mean, he produced the best series ever made but he also produced Evan
Almighty and Mamma Mia!. Maybe he should just keep dominating epics cause as much as I
enjoy a movie like Larry Crowne, it might have missed the spot a bit. Still liked it, though.
First Timer Here,
ReplyDeleteThe wife got her pick from RedBox the other night. Larry Crowne was sooooo disappointing!
I was angry almost. Don't tease me! Hanks, Roberts, Valderrama.
Roberts was wonderful (except for being a terrible drunk. Who went from "glass of wine pissed" to "one night stand" out of nowhere.
Hanks is out of touch. He must have missed "Everything Must Go". I was expecting 40 Year Old Virgin from the previews. He was in a different movie. If the whole scooter gang bit had been in any other movie, it would been wonderful. But it was wasted.
I want my dollar back!
Jp, I agree.
