Movie #1088 "And So It Goes" is a good film ---- not sure how the title indicates that at all. Bad title, good film. But for me, how could it go wrong, really, with Diane Keaton and Michael Douglas as the older couple, one a curmudgeon (guess which one that is?) and Frances Sternhagen providing the reality check --- she's a hoot! And a cute little girl that is in need of some love. Yep, you've heard the story before, but under the direction of Rob Reiner, it manages to turn out okay. By the end, even through some clunky scenes/lines and predictable predicaments the script throws Michael Douglas's way, it managed to get to me --- made me a believer. It's good, esp. if you don't mind good acting along with the predictability.
