Movie: Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs
Jan's Rating: 9
Time: 1 Hour 30 Minutes
Jan's Opinion: How could a movie be bad with that clever title? My Grandson and I loved this movie so I let him rate it and he gave it a "9". This usually isn't my kind of movie but I have to say, I was very impressed by the ingenuity and imagination it took to come up with a movie where a young man wants very badly to become an inventor and make the world a better place so he figures out how to make it rain food from the sky. Danny's comment was "that's my idea of Heaven". Take your kids and grandkids to see it; they will love it too.

LOVE HAPPENS
Movie: Love Happens
Jan's Rating: 8
Time: 1 Hour 49 Minutes
Jennifer Aniston stars in this movie as Eloise, owner of a flower shop, who meets Ryan (played by Aaron Eckhart) who lost his wife in an automobile accident. Ryan has written a book about his experience and holds classes for people who have lost loved ones and need some support. Eventually Eloise and Ryan fall in love (you knew this would happen) but the road that takes them there is fun and enjoyable. Cousin Bonnie and I both liked it a lot.

MY ONE AND ONLY
Movie: My One and Only
Jan's Rating: 8
Time: 1 Hour 25 Minutes
Jan's Opinion: I thought this movie was going to be the life story of George Hamilton's Mother but it is actually just one year of their lives - 1953, the year George's Mother left his Father. Renee Zellweger, as always, gives an excellent performance as George's Mother, and Kevin Bacon plays his Father. Logan Lerman plays the role of George. Well, George's Dad had a band that travelled and he cheated on his Mother one too many times so she took the boys and left him (Kevin Bacon). George has an older brother who was very much gay which probably wasn't easy for him back in 1953. So, they buy a new Cadillac, leave New York, and the movie is about their adventures driving across the United States, via Route 66, on their way to California, as George's Mother tries to find another rich husband. It wasn't the best movie I've seen this year, but I enjoy anything with Renee Zellweger. She is such a good little actress.

ALL ABOUT STEVE
Movie: All About Steve
Jan's Rating: 6
Time: 1 Hour 38 Minutes
Jan's Opinion: I'm a sap for chick flicks, funny & silly romantic movies but this one was even too silly for me. Sandra Bullock IS the movie. Without her, I don't think I would have sat through the whole thing. Cousin Bonnie shares my opinion on this one. Bradley Cooper does have pretty eyes and the whitest teeth but that was about it in this movie. Sandra and Bradley go out on a blind date arranged by their parents, she falls head-over-heals in lust and scares him to death. He is news photographer so she follows him across the country stalking him because she is convinced he really wants her to be with him. There wasn't ANY depth to this one.
