Just OK

I wasn't able to catch "The Kids Are All Right" in the theaters, so I watched it on Demand this weekend.

• Ooh, I didn't know that Mia was in this movie!  She's such a great actress, and did a good job here, too.  
• I don't get why so many people think that Mark Ruffalo is sexy, but OK.  I think he's good-looking, but sexy?  Really?  Is it the motorcycle and the leather?
• "Well, HELLO!"
• Way too many gratuitous sex scenes.  I get it: their sex is wild.  I get it: they need to watch gay male porn because the female porn is less authentic.  I get it, OK?  Could you not fill the movie with more, oh, I don't know, something ELSE?  Did we *need* to see all of that? Aside from those of you out there that love Ms. Moore's and Mr. Ruffalo's naked bodies?
• I liked that scene wherein Nic and Paul are singing the Joni Mitchell song.  I'm not familiar with the repertoire, but I liked that.
• A note for those of you that are having affairs:  if your spouse is going to visit the house of your mistress/mister (?), perhaps one of you should thoroughly scour the place for evidence of your getting busy-ness before the spouse arrives.  
• The gardener's grinning was weird.
• I thought that the best part of this movie was Annette Benning's performance.  She had the range of he emotions, but did them subtly.  
• I was ready to turn off the movie if Laser had actually let his friend pee on the dog.
• Let me get this: two gay women who raised their children with their children knowing about the acceptance of homsexuality in the home, were concerned that their son wasn't telling them if he was gay?  Really?

OK, I am clearly not in the league with all of the people that praise this movie to the point of getting it nominated for Best Picture.  Unlike with the other movie that I purchased on Demand a couple of weeks ago, I did not keep this one for the entire rental time, and actually deleted it before the credits were over.
