| | highly recommended except for language | jibboscarol@webtv.net 05/02/2007 | | I wanted very badly to have my granddaughters see this movie. I couldn't allow it because of the atrocious language of Marisa Tomei in the Thanksgiving scene which was unfortunate. I happen to think good movies are not improved by constant use of the F word. I'm trying to be less biased but this scene definitely went too far. |
