Movie Haiku:Oh, Jennifer! That such a terrific young actress should be saddled with such preposterous dialogue is a true travesty. Somehow Jan had hoped that with a screenplay by Simon Beaufoy (who won an Oscar for SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE) & Michael Arndt who won an Oscar for LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE) there might be some pearls in this swine-swill... but no. Film is awful & will never be seen by Rich.
