In-Depth Review
Release Date: 5 October 2012 (Limited) Because we only review G, PG, and PG-13 movies at Parent Previews we did not review this title. For your convenience, we have provided some brief information about the film’s synopsis and content.
Synopsis: A butter-sculpting contest attracts a stripper (Olivia Wilde) who captures the judges’ attention, a talented orphan (Yara Shahidi) that’s the wrong color for the community’s vote, and a proud woman (Jennifer Garner) forced to pick up the knife herself after her husband (Ty Burrell), the former reigning champ, gives up the completion and the associated social status.
