Review of Georgia Rule (2007) by Ashley H — 04 Sep 2008

This was not the best movie I've ever seen, but it was pretty darn good. I didn't really expect much from Lindsay Lohan but she actually blew me away. My one gripe about Lohan was her age portrayal.

It was hard to believe she was seventeen with a smoker's rasp and second-skin jeans. Jane Fonda did not do her best work, but she was completely generic. Felicity Huffman's performance was humorous, although a little dark.

Her alcoholism is pretty believable except the antibuse thing. The movie was amusing and the unexpected plot twist kept me stringing along for the duration of the movie trying to figure it all out, but not in a frustrating way.

Overall I think this movie was far better than expected and totally enjoyable.
