Georgia Rule: Movie Run Amuck

Georgia Rule Movie ReviewThe trouble with On Demand Video is that sometimes the selection is just plain desperate. That was the case the other day when I sat down to take in a movie. I flipped through the three screens of despair and decided on the lesser of all evils displayed, and went with Georgia Rule. Jane Fonda and Felicity Huffman were the only things that grabbed my attention in the brief synopsis… they were clever to leave out the lead, Lindsay Lohan.

The story revolves around an obnoxious teen, Lohan, who is abandoned in Idaho by her end-of-her-rope, mother for a summer of strict rules and no nonsense with grandma Georgia (Fonda).

Three things I found irritating about this movie were: Lohan’s atrocious acting, the needless negative portrayal of Mormons, and an ill placed kiss that just goes no where. I’ll leave it to you all to create your own list for this flick, if you can stomach sitting through an entire viewing.

I give this movie 3.5 “bars of soap” out of 10.
