THE ODD LIFE OF TIMOTHY GREEN

Latest movie from the folks at Disney.  Safe for the kids but will really distort the reality to younger ones as to where babies come from.

I have always dreamed what would happen if movies went more to Frank Zappa styled music and this is abliut as close as it will get.  This movie is based on a story by Ahmet Zappa (son of Frank) and it goes round and round and round until oops look there are the credits.

Movie is basicially, wife Jennifer Garner and husband Joel Edgerton can not have children of their own.  They write up a list detailing what traits they would love to have in their child and bury it in the garden.  Lo and behold Timothy sprouts and is everything they wanted in a child.

Fun and games as they decide to take him in as their own and then explain his arrival to friends and family.

Movie is a mess.  It is an enjoyable mess but a mess.  Surprises are telegraphed pretty openly.

Rated G
