Ramona and Beezus (2010)

Awards
- 1 win & 4 nominations

Trivia
Beezus and Ramona first appeared, as supporting characters, in a series of books focused on Henry Huggins. Beverly Cleary later wrote Beezus and Ramona, which focused on Beezus and her family. However, her younger sister Ramona became so popular that the remaining books focused on Ramona. Beezus is still an important character, and Henry Huggins still appears but becomes a secondary character in the series he launched. The names are reversed in the title for this film because of the shift in focus to Ramona.

Feel Good Movie, something you would like have in your collection

The books come home to Hollywood,

This movie may be one of those "ya I have seen that some time may be!" films, but it has its own little beautiful moments that helps it into the collection. A great one for teenagers and kids.

And yes, you want some quality family time on weekends go ahead with this movie.

A good "feel good" movie. With a smallish story, and a realistic world. With some Good old days' charm that enchants.

Acting overall was decent. Joey King as a matter of fact acted better than Selena Gomez, who had a considerably smaller role.

Finally it is such a movie that would not be judged on its plot or screen play and performance. It would be something you would just watch for fun.

6.7/10
