The Family Stone


The Family Stone

Who's in it: Sarah Jessica Parker, Dermot Mulroney, Luke Wilson, Diane Keaton, Craig T. Nelson, Rachel McAdams, Claire Danes

What's it about: Meredith(Parker) and Everett(Mulroney) are in love. For Christmas, Meredith goes to meet Everett's family. The family doesn't like her and they want her gone. When Everett tells his mom, Sybil(Keaton), that he's going to propose, everything gets out of whack. Amy(McAdams) is trying her hardest to get rid of her while Ben(Wilson) is trying to get her to stay. Meredith invites her sister Julie(Danes) to accompany her after a few days of the family and Everett falls in lover with her instead. Kelly(Nelson) is trying his hardest to keep everything under control.

What I Think: Though I'm not a huge fan of Sarah Jessica Parker, I must say that I think she did outstanding in this movie. I'm a sucker for Luke Wilson and that is what really sold the movie to me. Although I didn't like the fact that Everett and Julie end up falling in love, the movie is definetely worth seeing!
