One of my favorite quotes of all time was one that not only bashed this "movie", but also adequately summed it up.
"Though it may entertain some very young viewers, Judy Moody is likely to be a garish sensory onslaught for anyone with a normal attention span." -Rotten Tomatoes, June 2011
Quite honestly, this one is the most accurate (and witty) yet. I was forced to go with my little cousins to see this, and I'm not surprised at all that they didn't enjoy it either. Probably even for them, constant puking, drooling, cotton candy spewing, hands glued to strange places, and "poop picnics" were disturbing and not really clever enough to stand out. This is the first movie that I have cared so little that I sat in the very back row, by myself, and texted people. Go ahead, call me names, but quite honestly I don't think anyone else in the near empty theater noticed or cared. Anyway, from what I heard and saw between texts, its nothing more than an overly garish overload of just about everything except anything worth mentioning. I may be a teen, but I can tell when a film needs a deeper storyline and maybe a little something to thrill EVERYONE, not just 5 year old kids. Sorry.
