Wendy and Lucy (2008)

I am a day behind, but I did watch a ton of movies, just didn't have time to blog this yesterday! I will todays movies tomorrow! Okay...so I know I was supposed to like this. I have been saving it for a night when it was peaceful and quiet in my house. The boys were gone camping, so it was just Chloe and I home alone, and she was in bed already. I found this on Netflix and put it on...and slowly slipped into complete despair! I didn't like this movie. I don't think I liked it at all. I haven't seen many movies that made me feel this hopeless. Michelle Williams plays Wendy, a girl on her way to what is hopefully going to be a good job and better life, when her car breaks down and she loses her dog Lucy in a small, sad little town in Oregon. I realize that all the critics loved her performance in this movie, I had read so many raves. I thought she was okay. I bought it, I guess thats the best I can say. However, her character annoyed me in so many ways. This movie was slow, and depressing. I was so sorry I watched it. I don't know if there is anything good I can say about it....however I would love for you guys to watch it so I can see if I was crazy or not!! If anyone out there reading this blog have seen it, please comment and tell me what you thought....or if you watch it eventually, come back and tell me, I am wildly curious!
