The Good Girl
2002
***½
Director: Miguel Arteta
Cast: Jennifer Aniston, Jake Gyllenhaal, John C. Reilly, Tim Blake Nelson
A slight change of pace for Jennifer Aniston who plays a small town woman with a dead-end job and marriage whose affair with a young man ends up turning her life upside down. The film is likeable, but not quirky, original, surprising or believable enough to leave a long-lasting impression. John C. Reilly plays the role of the faithful but boring husband for the umpteenth time.
