Skip It


Film: NEW IN TOWN
Director: Jonas Elmer
Actors: Renee Zellweger, Harry Connick Jr, Siobhan Fallon, J.K. Simmons, Frances Conroy
Year: 2009


I think, perhaps, Renee Zellweger has run her course. She hasn't been in a good movie since 2005's "Cinderella Man" (I'm not counting "Leatherheads" because I am pretending she wasn't in it). This snooze-fest is about an ambitious woman who travels to a small Minnesota town to help restructure a factory. Even that sounds boring. Harry Connick Jr, who I actually liked in "Hope Floats" and "Little Man Tate", is dull as a single father who... you guessed it, falls for scrunch-face-Zellweger. If you're interested in the prissy-lady-out-of-her-element kind of thing, Netflix "Overboard".
