The Joneses

Release Date: April 16, 2010 (limited)
Studio: Roadside Attractions
Director: Derrick Borte
Screenwriter: Derrick Borte
Genre: Comedy, Drama
MPAA Rating: R (for language, some sexual content, teen drinking and drug use)
Website: N/A

Starring: David Duchovny, Demi Moore, Amber Heard, Gary Cole, Chris Williams, Lauren Hutton, Glenne Headly

Plot Summary: Demi Moore and David Duchovny star as a seemingly perfect couple who, along with their equally perfect teenagers -- Amber Heard ("Zombieland," "Pineapple Express") and Ben Hollingsworth ("The Beautiful Life") -- move into an upscale gated community. The Joneses have better goods and game than any other family in town. The only problem is they're not a family -they are employees of a stealth marketing organization, and they know how to make everyone else want what they've got.

I saw this last night. It's a really good movie.

It's in netflix's streaming library now, it's well worth a watch.

I watched this for 15 minutes and thought "this feels like the Riches." Since I prefer Eddie Izzard and Minnie Driver to David D and Demi Moore, I stopped watching.

Okay, so I just atchd the first 5 minutes of the first episode of the Riches, and I don' get the same vibe at all. Izzard and famly are thieves and he "Joneses" represent...well, the proverbial Joneses and the coveting of neighbors (things).

I'm going to watch the Riches. You should watch the Joneses.

So, yeah. Just got done with the first episode of The Riches and I can safely say it's nothing at all like The Joneses.
