Movie: Crazy Stupid Love
Jan's Rating: 9-1/2
Time: 1-1/2 Hours
Jan's Opinion: Cousin Bonnie and I saw this movie this week and we both loved it! I am normally not a fan of Steve Carell but really liked him in this movie; Julianne Moore was her wonderful great acting self as Steve's wife. However, Steve has become boring to her so she wants a divorce which breaks his heart. He starts hanging out at the bars and meets Ryan Gosling who shows him how to dress and act to attract women. All is well until Steve's daughter (Emma Stone) tells her father she is in love and introduces him to Ryan. It just gets better from there. I had not heard of Emma Stone until recently and all of a sudden she is THE actress to watch for. She is not a beautiful girl but is a good actress and has such a cute personality that you fall in love with her. See the movie, you'll love it!

TRANSFORMERS: DARK OF THE MOON 3D
Movie: Transformers: Dark of the Moon 3D
Jan's Rating: 4
Time: 2 Hours 34 Minutes!
Jan's Opinion: My opinion of this movie is it was 2 hours too long. If I had had to watch another car turn into a droid, I would have left. I was totally bored, not my kind of movie. However, my 13 year-old Grandson loved it and gave it a 9, so I guess the younger people will like it.

HORRIBLE BOSSES
Movie: Horrible Bosses
Jan's Rating: 5
Time: 1 Hour 40 Minutes
Jan's Opinion: Cousin Bonnie and I went to see this movie today and I think she was the only one laughing. We agreed that it was too crude. Would have been a better movie without all the "F" words and "MF'rs", not to mention detailed sex acts. I love Jennifer Aniston and was disappointed that she would play such a crude role. Jason Bateman, Kevin Spacey, Charlie Day and Colin Ferrell were all crude as well. Do yourself a favor and skip this one, or see it when it's free.

ZOO KEEPER
Movie: Zoo Keeper
Jan's Rating: 8
Time: 1 Hour 44 Minutes
My grandson and I saw this movie today and we both rated it an "8", had lots of laughs and really enjoyed it. Kevin James stars as the Zoo Keeper and he loves the animals and takes good care of them. Eventually, they start talking to him so he can actually have a conversation with them. He is having girlfriend problems and the animals try to help. It's light and cute and entertaining, and the "F"word is never used. Imagine that. We should let Hollywood know that we can actually enjoy a movie without that word being used.

LARRY CROWNE
Movie: Larry Crowne
Jan's Rating: 8
Time: 1 Hour 39 Minutes
Jan's Opinion: Cousin Bonnie and I saw this movie today and we both enjoyed it very much. When the Enquirer gave it a "C", we figured we would like it. It is not going to win an Oscar but if you enjoy a light, feel-good comedy, you will like Larry Crowne. Larry's wife left him and he has been fired from U-Mart "because he didn't have a college education", so he decides to go back to school and Julia Roberts is his teacher. She is married to a bum who would rather look at porn than work so she is not happy at home. Yes, the ending is predictable, but who cares? It was a fun movie to watch. Don't forget the popcorn!

BAD TEACHER
Movie: Bad Teacher
Jan's Rating: 6
Time: 1 Hour 29 Minutes
Jan's Opinion: I love Cameron Diaz but cousin Bonnie and I saw this movie today and we were both disappointed, agreed to give it a "6". Cameron plays an English teacher who just wants to make enough money for a boob job so she can land a rich husband. She takes drugs and smokes, and is truly a "bad teacher" until she gets serious about making more money for those new boobs. There are some funny parts and I think that Lucy Punch and Phyllis Smith gave a great performance in there comedy roles. Keep in mind this is rated a strong "R" for language, nudity and drug use. If you are younger, you might enjoy it more. It wasn't bad...........it wasn't good.

CARS 2
Movie: Cars 2
Jan's Rating: 6
Time: 1 Hour 54 Minutes
Jan's Opinion: Zzzzzz. I dozed off a few times. My Grandson and I saw this movie yesterday and we both agreed it should be rated a "6". Larry the Cable Guy stars as Mater, the tow truck, Owen Wilson has the hot red Corvette, and my boy Jeff Gordon has the yellow Corvette with a "24" on the side (of course). Unfortunately, Jeff's role was a small one. In Cars 2, they are competing in an international Grand Prix race, and of course they have to outwit the bad guys. Ho hum. Sorry I spent the money on this one but little ones will probably giggle through it.
