Was invited to a sneak preview of “parental guidance”. I laughed thru-out the movie probably because I identified with Bette & Billy as the unconventional grandparents. As a grandparent, I’ll do anything to entertain my grandson & to make him smile & laugh. Thumbs down to violence, thumbs up to fun!!!

Cruise as Jack Reacher has got to be the strangest casting decision since Morgan Freeman played Red in Shawshank.

Reacher is a big dude 6ft 5in. Heavily muscled, jack reacher is not shrimp whimp tom cruise. Whoever picked the cast, blew it. Been a big fan of Lee Child’s books. But will NOT

go see this bogus movie. Not with miniature cruise as the lead actor.. very dissapointed

I will never go to a movie that tries to palm off Tom Cruise as Jack Reacher. What a disconnect. Worst casting decision ever.

Anyone who has ever read and enjoyed the Jack Reacher series, understands Tom Cruise will never be Jack Reacher……..

I predicted that the audience would turn away from violent movies because it’s overkill at this time of year. I’m surprised the Guilt Trip isn’t doing better than it is, was hoping wom would help, but this is as good for the American public. The more people turn away from violent movies (don’t go!) and more to family values and comedy, maybe Hwd will get the message.
