Movie Review: Judy Moody and the Not Bummer Summer

June 8, 2011 By Thelma

Heather Graham, Summer Vacation,Things to do with Kids

Graham (left), Beatty get kooky

Us Rating: **

Third-grader Judy (Jordana Beatty) and her offbeat aunt Opal (Heather Graham) share a zany staycation (a manic car chase! a Bigfoot sighting!) in this grating family flick. While Graham charms as the artsy eccentric, newcomer Beatty overdoes it with the pop-eyed energy of a preteen Miley Cyrus. And the high-pitched, candy-colored comedy tries too hard to be fun.
