CommentsXp Best movie ever!

Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

Ava-Grace Willis Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Ole Sandbaek Joergensen I read the short summary on IMDb about this, it really didn't say anything about the movie, I read somewhere else that it was a comedy and it had a good story, but again not giving me insight to the story. Not really knowing what this film was about, I started watching and after about 15 minutes your in the loop of things, its elaborated through out the movie and in some cases it's really good and refreshing to see this who-is-cheating-who-and-making- money-on-it kind of strange film.I thought it was funny to see Duchovny in this, I'm kinda sexy but doesn't really know how to handle this setup. I think Duchovny and Moore has a good partnership and they play their roles very well, from start to finish they change characters, not in a unexpected way, but in a regular to romantic-comedy's kind of way.It's a good movie and a good concept, one that maybe could have been done better, it's not a bad result at all, but I wasn't hundred percent entertained.

Desertman84 The Joneses is a satirical film that tackles consumerism and materialism in light of the global recession and tough economic difficulties that the world especially the United States is currently experiencing.It stars Demi Moore and David Duchovny (or David Duchovny and Demi Moore as the credits put it) together with Amber Heard and Lauren Hutton. It was written and directed by Derrick Borte.It starts when the Joneses - a picture-perfect wealthy family - moves into a rich community and starts impressing the neighborhood with expensive things.This forces them an issue of consumerism and materialism.Steve and Kate as well as their kids Jennifer and Mick become instant celebrities as that their affluent neighbors want to emulate especially with the gadgets and gizmos that money can buy.But things become morally conflicted with the Joneses as they become aware of the bad effects that has brought to their neighbors especially the ones who live next door - Larry and Summer - as well as the psychological effects of their pretension to become effective in their jobs as salesmen for LifeImage - the source of expensive items that the neighbors are buying from. Despite the fact that the movie played it safe at the conclusion by becoming melodramatic,I felt that it was a good film that discusses important issues facing the world today such as consumerism and materialism in times of difficult economic times around the world.It makes the viewer think about why we buy things and how money has become the focal point in many people's lives today.Aside from that,it also makes the viewer realize that there are more important things in life such as love,family,freedom,acceptance,sincerity and happiness rather than the expensive gadgets that is being produced in the market today.In addition to that,it also become a cautionary tale about our attitude towards money and material things.The cast particularly Duchovny,Moore and Heard also made it watchable and entertaining.Overall,Borte did a great job despite its flaws at the end.

OJT This is a serious comedy, or a dark satire if you like. Caricature if the perfect family of four. Rich, happy, successful, no less than three Audi's in the drive way, a wast wardrobe to choose from, all wearing Gucci and Rolex, playing golf, moving into a prosperous neighborhood. Not easy to be they neighbors. Are their life really that perfect? Are they just keeping up the appearances? You bet!The cast is doing great, well instructed, which makes this a more interesting comedy than I thought it was. Not your average Hollywood comedy garbage. This is well worth a watch, and gives certain perspectives.I like the lace of the film. It's sleek, good soundtrack, well balanced effects, really appealing. A great comedy about the modern consumer society and what makes it tick. Addiction to the newest, to the need for a perfect life.

winterslacker I've never heard of this before; it's quite brilliant, and certainly better than I thought it would be. Why is it that when there finally comes a different movie, different from all the rest of the cliché crap, it doesn't get much attention? It's such a clever way to market new products, but everyone always seems to forget the nature of humans and their feelings. That's why I'm amazed at the work of actors; some slip through and get together, but the rest for the most part can have no feelings for a person, but make it look otherwise. I guess that's what you call just business - and of course things go awry. This was a very fun movie to watch. I doubt anyone would guess the ending, but that's just me maybe. I highly recommend this fun- filled movie; it just might tell you what family really is.
