"Journey 2: The Mysterious Island" with Dwayne Johnson, Michael Caine, Josh Hutcherson, Vanessa Hudgens, Luis Guzmán, Kristin Davis
A teenager, Josh Hutcherson, has trouble relating to his step-father, Dwayne Johnson, until his grandfather sends him a distress call and clues to find where he is stranded. The teen and his dad embark on a grand adventure to find and rescue granddad. It was corny and silly, but The Rock [swoon] and Michael Caine earned it ★★★★
"Adoration" with Devon Bostick, Scott Speedman, Arsinée Khanjian, Rachel Blanchard, Noam Jenkins, Kenneth Welsh, Aaron Poole, Katie Boland, Duane Murray
A teenager is encouraged by his teacher to insert details of his own life into a fictional terrorist-related story and present it to the teen's French and Drama classes. The story goes viral on the Internet, the teacher is fired, and complications ensue for the teen as well. It was long, boring, and pointless. Hubby generously awarded it ★★★, but I was thinking ★★
