Review of Moving McAllister (2007) by Katie G — 03 Nov 2009

I bought this movie for like, 3 dollars, because it was like, 3 dollars. I thought "It can't be that bad". I then read the reviews and thought "Great, shoulda gotten some candy bars".

But tonight I watched it. And honestly, I thoroughly enjoyed it. The dream sequences seemed strange at first but they made me laugh and they actually came together in the end. Well, I got what the director was trying to say.

I think Mila Kunis did a good job, and Jon Heder actually seemed the most different from his famous "Napoleon Dynamite", than any of the other roles I've seen him in. It made me laugh, I rooted for the romance, and it had a happy ending.

Maybe it didn't vary too much from the classic movie formula, but that's exactly why I loved it. Overall, a moving, transforming, funny film. Four stars.
