Title: Best Picture? and Best Actress? What a Joke.
Review: You have got to be kidding me? What a pathetic comment on Hollywood that this movie could be nominated for Best Picture and Best Actress.The movie was as average as it gets. If the DVD had been defective half-way through I would not have cared one iota. The only redeeming quality was Jason Bateman's performance...and the last 20 minutes of the movie which had some poignancy.Ellen Page is nothing but sarcasm until those last 20 minutes. Sarcasm is not a difficult role to play people! Close your eyes and tell me that she does not sound exactly like Jeanine Garofalo. She is a Jeanine Garofalo protege, I'm telling you. Her character is so unbelievable...and not one adult in the entire movie ever tells her to shut her flipping mouth and act respectful? It's just not believable.And to top it all off, the soundtrack has to be the worst in the history of film. I'm embarrassed for Hollywood over these nominations for this picture.
