Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day

nice light family movie show the importance of the family and positives and show that you can extract the good from any bad day or worst situation

nice way to show the funny events through the movie nice casting in summary the movie have all the element of watchable good movie nothing much to say about it

This was a total blind watch. I mean knew nothing about it. I had never read the book (didn't even know there was a book). Hadn't even watched the trailer. It was just brief (81 minutes) and lightweight (Disney family comedy) and both of those just happened to meet my particular criteria yesterday. To my complete and utter surprise, I loved it.

Let me just be real clear. I loathe Disney. Loathe it. It's history and iconography do nothing for me, save perhaps make me a bit queasy. It's not that I'm some artsy-fartsy, highfalutin type either. Disney just doesn't agree with me. But despite a lot of Disney trappings, I thought AatTHNGVBD was an energetic and genuinely funny little movie that left me not queasy, but with a bit of a sugar buzz. I don't know that there's a genuine moment in the entire thing, but it plays its tune more skillfully than most Disney fare.

Good movie. The reason I'd give this a 7 out of ten is because at the beginning it was ok nothing happening that much much but in the end all the drama came into it. There's a valuable lesson in this about that bad days can turn into good days

The reason I give this a 5 out of 10 is that this movie is a good one for the kids. A movie with a simple lesson to accept the bad days and enjoy every good one. To be more positive.

About the movie out of my point of view? Well, not that awesome, but you can't expect a lot of this kind of movies. Steve Carell didn't perform at his best, that is obvious, but that wasn't even necessary.

After all, this whole movie was from the point of view of Alexander. Of course they did choose to make it a little childish. I believe the acting was also based on the viewer to be around 5 - 10 years old. Some simple jokes, not a lot of jokes where to use the brain, but more of the eyes.

This is a nice film to watch with the family. Funny moments follow one after the other, and the message is simple - we all have sh** to deal with but family is the most important component in our lives. Recommended viewing.
