The Kids Are All Right (2010)

I am afraid to say less about The Kids Are All Right than I did about Leprechaun 5, but I'm not sure I have much to add to what's already widely known about this movie.

Basically what you have here is a solid movie with great acting about a lesbian couple whose marriage suffers when their children seek out their sperm-donor father.

I loved the fact that the movie wasn't about the fact that the main couple is two women. What I loved more about it was that it accurately portrayed a very difficult time in a long term relationship between two people who love each other very much but who can't always make things work right.

Overall, I finished this movie feeling really happy for a number of reasons. A hopeful, bright, interesting and thought provoking film. Lovely.

  1. I'm getting this on Netflix tomorrow, and your review has made me more excited about it! (That means it might not sit sealed in the envelope for a week like most of my Netflix rentals)
