Mona Lisa Smile

The Night Listener
I’m not really sure why but whenever Robin Williams is in a drama, I just can’t take him seriously. The Night Listener was the perfect example of this.

Fifty Shades of Grey - Movie (2015)
This is a movie where I feel people will have mixed emotions about. Either they will find it really entertaining or very disturbing. For me personally, I found it to be a not-so thrilling movie as the story isn’t much for me, however I wasn’t disturbed. Having read the Fifty …
Delta Farce movie
I have to admit, I always liked Larry the Cable Guy as a stand-up comedian but his movies, though somewhat dumb, are pretty good.
The movie Delta Farce is definitely a good example of this.
Larry, Bill Engvall and D.J. Qualls play a group of army reservists who are called up …
Christmas in Wonderland
My very favorite actor, Patrick Swayze, stars in this holiday movie, “Christmas in Wonderland”. I just saw it for the first time when it aired on TV, and I have mixed feelings about it.

Furious 7 (Fast & Furious 7) - Movie (2015)
Furious 7, starring Vin Diesel, Paul Walker and Dwayne Johnson is a movie that had high expectations before its release, primarily due to Paul Walker’s death, half-way through the filming of the movie. In my opinion, the movies in the Fast & Furious series have been disappointing but Furious 7 …

DVD THE CAVE
I found this DVD, THE CAVE, to be entertaining, but, actually, rather strange. It has to do with: first, a group of soldiers, during WW11 finding a cave full of historical treasures, in Europe. Something happens to this group of soldiers, then, there is a flash to the present …

Movie P.S. I Love You (2007)

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
With Temple of Doom, my rant was that it did not have enough of Raiders’ successful elements in it to make me like it the first time out. With Last Crusade, the opposite was true. It was too much like Raiders. Blatantly obvious was returning characters Brody and Sallah, …

Little Shots of Happiness (R, 2000) movie

American Dreamz
I believe that the movie “American Dreamz” represent the most bizarre role for both actors, Hugh Grant and Mandy Moore. We see both there two actors in an unlovable role which is definitely something new because we are so used in seeing them in romantic movies. It is also …
Movie Fury of the Wolfman (1973)
Fury of the Wolfman (1973)

Pretty standard fare has Waldemar bitten by the yeti (!) …

I loaded another Looney Tunes Cartoon on our Netflix Player the other day for our daughter “Daffy Duck’s Quack Busters.” It was an OK movie but not as good as I expected.
