I took my 10 and 12 year olds to this movie last night. The audience seemed to like it, with many laughs out loud.
There is one scary part, which is also funny, which happens so quickly, all you can do is gasp, then laugh at the ridiculousness of it.
The mother is a riot. It’s a big part; she practically talks in every scene.
I loved all the casting — Penelope’s would-be suitors; her fiance; her mom and dad; the butler; the matchmaker; the reporter; the bartender; her friend.
And there were surprising twists along the way, two of which I didn’t see coming.
The moral is a good one for girls/women, about self-image, but maybe for guys too.
We gave it 3.5 stars, which is how it was rated by critics. We’ll see it again when it comes out on DVD.
