Watch Alexander And The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day
Alexander endures a hilariously terrible day in this Disney comedy. Anyone who says there is no such thing as a bad day just hasn't had one. Alexander experiences the most terrible and horrible day of his young life-a day that begins with gum stuck in his hair, followed by one calamity after another.
CRITICS OF "Alexander And The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day"
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Arteta keeps the action speeding along while eliciting spot-on performances. Carell is at his discombobulated best, and Garner anchors the proceedings with aplomb.
Alexander... etc. isn't exactly a terrible film, but it was definitely in need of a little retooling so that the events plaguing this family weren't quite so unbelievable, annoying, and on the lower end of the comic scale.
It's the rare, current kid movie made with real actors. Unfortunately, it's not remotely adult-funny. That's OK. Parents suffer. It's what they do. Go and suffer for the kids.
There are a couple of scenes that fall flat, losing the manic push of the rest of the story, but the mood is so screwball that the film hurtles past its own mistakes. It's good fun.
This is where the comedy comes from: that lurking fear that even the most routine of daily domestic tasks is just a spilled coffee cup away from disaster.
