Smart People, DVD

Smart People, 2008

Smart People 1

I believe this film is written by a liberal who believes this is exactly how Republicans behave.  This is not a political film, but some of the actions in the film will leave you scratching your head.

Move past the slightly unrealistic writing and get to the actual story on this one.  The idiocracy of smart people and their lazy brother/uncle.  Thomas Haden Church as the brother gives a nice contrast to the self absorbed Professor, Denise Quaid.  Ellen Page does pretty well as the too intelligent for her own good daughter.

This is a  movie about a dysfunctional family with some members with high intelligence, but not necessarily socially function behaviors.

For its uniqueness this movie has something, but it isn’t a great movie.

I give this one a 3.5/5.
