//http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2404311/The dh and I love movie night. Especially since we’ve discovered this great theater with surround sound seating, relaxing inclining chairs, and, wonder of all wonders, wine. So these days we travel an extra 20 minutes to go to the Paragon Deerfield Theater and that’s where we saw The Family.
Ok, so we went to see this film because of the stars—I mean Michelle Pfeiffer, Bobby De Niro— what can go wrong?
Not a lot, but enough.
Truly, we were not bored, but neither were we charmed. The whole story was simply not likeable. When you exit a theater and the first words you say to your dh is okay, what was that about? It’s a train wreck and the only saving grace is an extraordinary dinner. Fingers and toes crossed that Gravity’s better.
Cheers,

I’ve been disappointed by a lot of movies lately and was worried I’m just getting too picky. I want to see a movie that I can get excited about. One that I keep talking about after I exit the theater. I’ll be interested to hear how Gravity is.
