Theater Scum: The Age of Little Boys

Two completely different movies just bide our time until The Avengers comes out.

The Age of Adeline


In my travels, I’ve never really been impressed by Blake Lively’s performances. This doesn’t look too much better as Adeline is in a freak car accident that renders her forever young (that was a movie!). She runs away from relationships because they all die and she doesn’t until she meets her one true love and ... well, we can surmise the rest. This feels like a romance book inspired by Benjamin Button with a smidge of every other rom-com thrown in.

Verdict: Let it die.



Little Boy


The titular “little boy” is enamored with his father and all the wonderful bonding they have together. But, oh no! War strikes and daddy is called away, leaving “little boy” to be mopey until he figures out he can move mountains or something. Kevin James is also in this sporting a creeper mustache.

Verdict: Schmaltzy, touching, and worthless

**NOTE: Either of these would be better choices than Paul Blart 2. What kind of filthy world do we live in where that makes $25 million?
