Smart People (DVD)

Smart People (2008) starring Dennis Quaid, Sarah Jessica Parker, Ellen Page, Thomas Haden Church. A widowed professor (Quaid) gets involved with a former student who is now a doctor (Parker). His daughter (Page) is deep into preparations for college, while his irresponsible adopted brother (Church) has arrived on his doorstep without a dime to his name. Unfortunately, the cast lacks chemistry and the script lacks a compelling story. "Smart People" is a dumb movie. Grade: C+
