Based on a true story, “Jerry and Marge” stars Bryan Cranston and Annette Bening as the Michigan couple who found a loophole in the lottery and walked away with millions, helping their tiny little hometown in the process. It’s sweet and charming and floats over you like a cool breeze, even if it plays a little vanilla. There’s no denying the leads’ combined talent, but the supporting cast, including Rainn Wilson, Ann Harada, and Larry Wilmore, adds the real flavor to the proceedings. It’s the consummate feel-good story that may just help restore your faith in the world… at least a little.
3.5/5 stars
