New on DVD: 'Eat Pray Love,' 'The Expendables'
EAT PRAY LOVE (PG-13) 2 stars
Plot Based on Elizabeth Gilbert's bestselling self-help foodie travel memoir - a marketing shotgun blast that covered all the major book-buying demographics - the film puts Julia Roberts, as Gilbert, in a typically male role: overly ambitious, overly successful, overly loved by her husband, Stephen (Billy Crudup, providing the film's most honest performance). Stephen will become the all-too-loyal spouse who gets jettisoned so the writer can live the life she'll be famous for. She dates a too-young actor (James Franco), then gets a better idea: Travel to Italy, India and Bali.
