Morning Glory discussion

It’s a trailer’s job to make the viewers want to see a movie, and we think that Morning Glory succeeded on that front. Maybe it was the peppy Natasha Bedingfield song. Maybe it was the cast that included Harrison Ford, Rachel McAdams, Diane Keaton, and that child molester from Hard Candy. But we thought Morning Glory looked cute.

Instead, it turned out to be a boring, slow movie with mostly annoying, unlikeable characters and clichés. We liked the ending, but there are many better romantic comedies featuring women in the media. Spend your time on one of those or watch TV. You can just buy the Natasha Bedingfield CD and get the warm feelings the trailer promised.

Movie Grade: D

  1. Sooooo agree. I was lured in by the cute, upbeat trailer... and instead it was LONG and irritating and I wasn't rooting for anyone to win.

  2. There were actually people who liked this movie. To them, we say, "You need to see more movies because you're too easily impressed."

  3. D-. And Harrison Ford is not allowed to act or "act" from this day forth.

  4. hahaha. Agree. He's usually good, but in that movie, it just sounded like he was trying to do his best Clint Eastwood impression, and it wasn't working. He was shockingly bad in Morning Glory.
