'Georgia' does not rule

| | Comments (0)

With an award-winning cast consisting of Jane Fonda, Felicity Huffman, Dermot Mulroney and Lindsay Lohan, I was greatly looking forward to "Georgia Rule."
Unfortunately, I was wrong. The movie, released earlier this year, was a complete disappointment.

"Georgia Rule" is not amusing at all, but rather trashy and unsuitable. Viewers are thrown into a psychotic world of confusion and perplexity.
The movie begins when mischievous teenager Rachel (Lohan) is dropped off by her dysfunctional mother (Huffman) at her grandmother's (Fonda) house in Idaho. Rachel spends the summer under the roof of her grandmother Georgia's difficult house rules.
To pass the time, Rachel works at a veterinary office with Simon (Mulroney), an older man to whom she's attracted. Simon is having trouble bouncing back to a normal life after losing his wife. Rachel tries to seduce him, but fails, and becomes more determined to create chaos.
Rachel also meets a Morman boy named Harlan (Garrett Hedlund) and tries to have a sexual relationship with him. He also does not accept Rachel, yet disgustingly allows her to use him.
The craziness gets even worse when the movie abruptly ends by Rachel admitting to her mother that she was seduced by her stepfather. The grandmother-mother-daughter relationship is then suddenly rekindled and everything is happily ever after.
I was thoroughly appalled with "Georgia Rule." I thought the movie would be humorous and comedic. Instead, I was left with perversion and disgrace as I exited the movie theater.
"Georgia Rule" is highly inappropriate and is a definite must not see.
