Caine and Duvall, and sort of a Disney story

Secondhand Lions is just a good movie for the kids to watch on a Saturday afternoon. Two grumpy old men have two take care of a young boy whose mother's a little bit flirtatious. The story is quite predictable, and there're hundred's of movies with the same plot.

Anyway, it's good directed, and we got Michael Caine and Robert Duvall, who have demonstrated their talent through dozens of movies. In fact it's because of them that I watched this picture. And It didn't disappoint me because I didn't expect nothing out of the ordinary. It's just a pleasure to watch this two giants together (I think this is the first time they ran into the same movie). As for Haley Joel, I can't stand that kid. He did a good job in Sixth Sense, but that's all. I can't stand his voice, nor his expression (ALWAYS the same).
