We saw this in Florida at the AMC Pleasure Island 24 in one of their smaller houses. Presentation was fine.

Renee Zellweger stars as an all-business type who is sent to a small town Minnesota food-processing plant under the guise of "implementing new procedures" but in reality she is charged with cutting half of the employees at the underperforming plant from the payroll.

This movie has a predictable storyline but two things make it fun to watch: The quirky setting in small-town Minnesota, and Renee Zellweger who does a great fish-out-of-water performance. I'm not usually a big fan of hers but she was excellent in this movie. Many big laughs.

3.75 out of 5 stars.
