The Joneses

David Duchovney (sp) is probably hands down one of my favorite actors. He's right up there with Bill Murray, Viggo Mortenson, and Edward Norton. And I feel the one brilliant thing about this film was his character. He actually arced during the film (imagine that). Demi Moore was a joy to watch as well, but David really had an excellent performance. Another plus for the film is the polished look it carried throughout. I felt like you were whisked away for 2 hours to the land where 300k sports cars just appeared out of the air and noone had to do anything but play golf for f/t employment.

The story is simple and one-layered, but you still have fun with it. Don't expect to leave this film with a newfound view on life and it won't leave you asking questions or making life changes. It's basically a stage for David and Demi to shine on. And watching them glimmer and dance about made it an entertaining romp for me.
