Alexander And The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day **½

Miguel Arteta directed this Family Comedy Watch Preview Cast: Steve Carell, Jennifer Garner, Dylan Minnette, Kerris Dorsey, Ed Oxenbould, Megan Mullally, Jennifer Coolidge, Bella Thorne. Rated PG for rude humor including some reckless behavior and language. Running time is one hour and twenty-one minutes.

Follows the exploits of 11-year-old Alexander (Ed Oxenbould) as he experiences the most terrible and horrible day of his young life.

This is a pleasant family comedy most will enjoy but it's a  movie you've seen many times before. The cast is very good and the production values are fine. But, there's nothing exceptional here so it's akin to watching a TV movie. If you're looking for something away from home the whole family can attend, this is your picture. But, for teens on up sans children, this isn't going to make much of an impression.

There are additional stills along with the credits but nothing that has to be seen. Screen size is unimportant. Theatres/Times.
