The Kids Are All Right

So I watched the indy powerhouse that is "the kids are all alright" from 2010. Well was it all alright, well yeah it was really alright. Ok outside of being a year away from opening my first restaurant (yeah !!!), the character portrayed by Mark Ruffalo reminded me of myself, but this movie is just good. Is it as good as the hype, well no. I think the gay community loves it when a movie shows just how much a gay couple can have all the trials and tribulations of a straight marriage, so it got a lot of buzz. But then again movies like this do just that, help break down the walls of misunderstanding and show us that marriages can have control freaks, parents who drink but are not raging alcoholics (but do maybe like their wine a little too much), have kids that aren't perfect but are also pretty great, and can survive an affair. This movie is warm, sweet, and enjoyable. It puts on display the new America where a family isn't always what the "bible" had in mind. I say unless you lean way to the right you should at least moderately enjoy this flick if not just flat out love it.
