this movie was less of a comedy than i expected. the plot was really good... except the ending! it would have been perfect if Justine just chose to go with Holden when he was waiting for her to come to the hotel by 12 noon. she even closed her eyes and looked into the future... and was saying how the unknown highway was "beautiful". but then she goes and turns in the guy that loves her! Sheesh. i guess if she chose holden, then she wouldn't be "The Good Girl" anymore. well they could have changed the name of the movie! like to Country hicks find an escape. :-P
well i guess the point was that holden was a disturbed young man (even in all his stories, the boy dies)... so it was almost expected that he ends up killing himself. and in the end Justine's baby was Holden's so in a way he lives on.
some of the scenes were so intense that it sent chills down my spine. or maybe it's just Jake's great acting. :)
Overall the movie was very good, just the right length... the "bad" ending made me give it a lower rating.
i'd recommend it to everyone. i've never liked Aniston, but she did a good job in this movie.
Sorry for all the spoilers. i usually just write about a movie after viewing it, so that i can look back on it in the future and actually remember something about the movies i've seen.
