Red Box It ❤ Playing for Keeps

I absolutely LOVED this family-friendly flick. 

 

It stars Gerard Butler and Jessica Biel as the exes sharing son Noah Lomax. The neighborhood is filled with a host of ridiculous suburbanites: Dennis Quad, Uma Thurman, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Judy Greer.

I wasn't expecting much (this always helps) but this movie was actually really really good.  Check it out and see for yourself.

The Basics
❤Absentee father (Butler) shows back up in his son's life and this time he's "Playing for Keeps" and hopes to get his family back

At the Cinema ♥ Side Effects

A side effect.  A peripheral or secondary effect, especially an undesirable secondary effect of a drug or therapy.

For a movie where you think you know exactly where it's going... you really don't have a clue.  But I liked that the end of the movie made sense.  The pieces fit together.  It was not one of those crazy movies where you never get it.  Rooney Mara was actually quite pretty in this film and of course Channing Tatum is always easy on the eyes.  It was an interesting movie... is it worth an evening movie ticket price?  Probably not, but it was still an entertaining end to a Monday night.  Did you see Side Effects?  What did you think?  I'm off to pack for a little trip to North Cali this weekend. :)
