DVD Review: ‘Everybody’s Fine’ is Second-Rate Hokum With a First-Rate Lead
Submitted by mattmovieman on February 26, 2010 - 2:32pmCHICAGO – Is there any cinematic prize less prestigious than the Heartland Truly Moving Picture Award? Most of the films honored by this group tend to be simple-minded, cloying and thoroughly manipulative. Any group that names “The Blind Side” as “the best film of 2009” seriously needs its head examined. The Heartland award emblem gracing the DVD box of “Everybody’s Fine” is sure to scare off serious fans of its legendary lead actor.
