"You spend $50 on dinner, that's grounds for intercourse."

For having such a great cast, Smart People is a bit meandering and boring. I was interested when it first came out but then forgot all about it by the time Brandon suggested it yesterday. Dennis Quaid is so freaking obnoxious it is difficult to believe that Sarah Jessica Parker's school girl crush would be enough for her to be attracted to him as a supposedly intelligent adult. We love Ellen Page, and she is delightful as his uptight daughter who develops an odd relationship with her father's flaky adopted brother. She and Thomas Haden Church were probably our favorite part of the movie. It was quirky and interesting in parts but didn't really do much for us.
