FINALLY! "Bernie" is a movie worth watching

Bernie (9) got me back to the theater. Glad I went (for a change.)

Away We Go

Rating: 6

Genre: Comedy & Drama

Starring: Maya Randolph, John Krasinski, Jeff Daniels, Catherine O'Hara, Allison Janey, Maggie Gyllenhael

Plot: "Away We Go" takes us to Arizona, Wisconsin, Canada and Florida as a couple hits the road in hopes of finding that perfect place in which to raise their about-to-be-born child. The couple (unmarried) wonders if they may have messed up their lives. They encounter old friends and relatives on their odyssey a lot more screwed up than they are. There are some humorous moments, as well as poignant ones. It's gratifying that the couple seems to genuinely like one another and the movie comes to a realistic ending.
