Not a bad film but its kinda similar

So I saw this twice already on DVD and surprisingly it wasn't a bad film but not the best film ever I seen. This charming movie tells the story (that's based on a novel on the same name)about a young girl named Ramona(played by Joey King)who isn't like many little girls;she has a vivid imagination that can sometimes or should I say ALL the TIME in trouble. She lives with her mother and her artistic father (both played by Blue Blood's Michelle Monayahan and Raising Helen's John Colbert)and her older sister Beezus(played by Selena Gomez) who always teases her over the monsters that come crawling under her bed every night when their house gets demolished by the builders and they have to move out.

Meanwhile Ramona plays matchmaker with Walk The Line's Ginnifer Goodwin who's crush Hobert(played by that cute guy from Life as we know it Josh Duhmel)who broke up with Goodwin's charcther along time ago and realized that he made a stupid mistake and he had a hidden box with special possessions inside.

Bottom line it kinda reminds me of Matilda you know that 1997 movie that had Mara Wilson and Danny De Vito and Matilda was a vivid imaginative child JUST LIKE RAMONA??

The story is nice but its a tad bit silly,the acting to its credit isn't all bad,but don't go and expect a masterpiece when watching this movie as its strictly for much younger kids.

Selena Gomez was eh Selena Gomez I mean seriously WHY does she ALWAYS be herself in almost EVERY godforsaken MOVIE!?!? she's almost playing the I don't give a crap,fetch my agent crap ALL THE TIME.Joey King was actually not a bad little child actress,and the rest of the movie is OK I guess.

So would I have this movie in my top 10 or 20... the answer is.....NO... BUT it is at No#60 on my list.

Not a bad film but its strictly aimed at kids and not for 22 year old girls like me.
