So is Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day going to have a not terrible, not horrible, very good weekend when it debuts Friday? Deadline Awards Columnist Pete Hammond reviews Disney’s film adaptation of the much-loved (and frequently adapted) children’s book and gives his verdict on the 2014 version.
The film is directed by Miguel Arteta (The Good Girl, a whole lot of TV) and stars Steve Carrell (The Office, Foxcatcher) and Jennifer Garner (Dallas Buyers Club, Men, Women & Children) as poor Alexander’s equally put-upon parents.
The film also stars Megan Mullally (Will & Grace, Parks & Recreation), with Ed Oxenbould (Julian, Paper Planes) as the titular troubled pre-teen.
