I Hope This Movie Springs to the End of the Film Already . . .

Name: Hope Springs
Actors: Tommy Lee Jones, Meryl Streep, Steve Carell
Director: Dacid Frankel
Release Date: 8 August 2012


Okay. Mom and I saw the previews for this movie and decided it had the potential to be entertaining and humorous. Mostly, however, despite it being funny, it's just awkward.

So here we go . . .

This has to be one of the saddest marriages I've ever seen. Even though I have no intention of marriage, I still hope that I never end up like that.
     Ever

Wait a second . . .
     Tommy Lee Jone's character sounds exactly like my dad's reaction if mom mentioned marriage/couples' counseling or anything like that.
     . . . and my mom is a bit like Meryl Streep.

. . . Fantastic. I'm watching my parents go through marriage/couples' therapy.
     That brings awkward to a higher level.
     I don't even know if I'll be able to finish this movie . . .
          it's just to weird . . .

I'm seriously waiting for Ashton Kutcher to show up and tell me I'm being Punked even though that show no longer exists.

I need to stop now. This is entirely to weird and applicable to my everyday life.
     Save me. Please. Ashton? Anyone?

At least one good thing happened -- Meryl Streep isn't scaring the crap out of me like she does in most, if not every, other role she has.
