Disney’s “Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day” follows the exploits of 11-year-old Alexander (Ed Oxenbould) as he experiences the most terrible and horrible day of his young life — a day that begins with gum stuck in his hair, followed by one calamity after another. But when Alexander tells his upbeat family about the misadventures of his disastrous day, he finds little sympathy and begins to wonder if bad things only happen to him. He soon learns that he’s not alone when his mom (Jennifer Garner), dad (Steve Carell), brother (Dylan Minnette) and sister (Kerris Dorsey) all find themselves living through their own terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day. Anyone who says there is no such thing as a bad day just hasn't had one.

Solzy at the Movies

Danielle Solzman

Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day is full of hysterics and chaos during every minute of the film.

The film, a loose adaptation of the classic childrens book, takes a simple premise and stretches it as far as it needs to go, weaving a little heart in between.

Richard Crouse

Younger kids will likely get a kick out of the bad behavior on display. Kids it ain't, although the Cooper children seem to get away with everything just short of murder.

Here is a movie you can take the whole family and they will enjoy.
