LARRY CROWNE

Larry Crowne - This movie came and went. From fun looking previews in the theaters for a second, and then, seemingly just like that to HBO. Tom Hanks plays a super nice middle aged regular guy, former military, who decides to go to college. Julia Roberts plays his losing-her-enthusiasm-and-personal-life-going-to-hell teacher. Although I'm not a big Julia fan, I'm pretty sure she did not let loose that signature laugh even once in this movie, which made me like her and the movie a little bit more. It's a super sweet story, with wonderful peripheral characters. No reason not to catch it on HBO for little movie respite when you want to relax for a couple of hours and not think too much.
