RAVE - The Kids Are All Right

More than just the acceptable face of chick flicks, this was genuinely heartfelt and moving.

Annette Bening and Julianne Moore are basking in their lesbian marriage, with a Daughter and Son be-sprogged by Mark Ruffalo's deposits at a sperm bank.

The kids want to meet up with their biological pops, and merriment, travails and tears ensue.

There are several stories going on here. One is about Bening's and Moore's relationship. One is about Ruffalo's bohemian lifestyle and loves. Another is about the daughter's imminent move to college. They all come together to make a great family story and there, I've gone and done it. I've written a "nice" review devoid of innuendo and sarcasm.

The film deserves that.

By the way, don't take your mum to see it. Julianne Moore gets her kit off yet again, and works it!
