The Odd Life of Timothy Green

I liked this movie very much, in spite of the critics. It is EXACTLY what you expect and you can see it all coming. I like Jennifer Garner (13 Going on 30) who plays her usual role. CJ Adams is suitably cute as the boy but Odeya Rush is excellent as his friend (both are new).

A pleasant surprise to me was Rosemarie DeWitt who wasn't really on my radar until I looked over her list of films. I thought she was very good in the excellent The Company Men. Here she plays an understated role (which is perhaps her 'lot' in Hollywood). And I don't remember seeing Lois Smith since Twister.

Beautifully shot with lots of fall colours which I love - enjoy it as it rolls over you. I'd see it again.
