Hey fanboys, get excited! Here's the new trailer for Ramona and Beezus, based on the classic series of, uh, "graphic novels" by Beverly Cleary, and starring, let's say, "Captain America frontrunner" Selena Gomez. No, no. This is not working. All that boy-friendly advice from Disney is so hard to actually put into practice!
What we really have here is an adaptation of the old-timey set of children's books with a couple of concessions to the modern age: Series protagonist Ramona has to share a lot more screen time with tween-friendly older sister Beezus (Gomez), Ramona's imagination has now been fleshed out with CG, and half of the adults Ramona knows are played by former models. Still, Hollywood could have done a lot worse to it. In this day and age, maybe that serves as a recommendation?
VERDICT: Sure, why not.
