Penelope (2008)

Cast: Christina Ricci (Penelope), James McAvoy (Max), Catherine O'Hara (Jessica Wilhern), Reese Witherspoon (Annie)
For complete information, see IMDb's Penelope page.

This movie was much better than I expected, since they threw in a couple twists to the standard girl in distress needs a man to save her plot that seemed to be the basis of Penelope from the little I had seen about it. I won't give anything away for anyone who hasn't seen it yet, but the story is much better and more of a girl power movie than a movie about a maiden in distress who needs to be saved by her prince.

Great cast and well done make-up and costumes. If you didn't see this in a theatre, it's definitely worth renting.

Grade: B-
