There’s so much to love about this movie. I can’t tell you about everything I love about it because I won’t spoil it for you. At first glance, it seems that the trailers have included all of the good stuff from the movie. But, it’s just not so. What’s in the trailers is there to … Continue reading
I saw “My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2” yesterday. I liked it. Was it as magical as the first movie? No. Sequels rarely are. BUT, this was fun and it was funny. It was like an hour and a half of laughing with old friends. They weren’t kidding – EVERYONE came back for this movie. … Continue reading
I’ve been doing my best to see more movies in the theater. For as much as I love awards season, I usually don’t see the nominated films before the awards ceremonies. I’d wait for them to come out on DVD or hit cable. But, I want to change that routine. I’d like to be more … Continue reading
This is a movie I’ve wanted to see for a while. Because, well, Amy Adams is in it. I love me some Amy Adams. I have ever since she played Cousin Beth in Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Anya slapped her down for not knowing what kind of demon Tara was supposed to be. (Yeah. I’m that … Continue reading

I went to see Interstellar last week. We have a theatre in the area that not only has $5 Tuesdays, but their early matinees are also only $5. Even their regularly priced tickets are only $9.50 – so I try to go to that theatre the most. It will come in handy as I strive … Continue reading
I’m not a fan of Tom Cruise. I mean, he’s a good enough actor and he’s done some good movies. But, as a person, I’m not a fan. I think he’s a tool of the first order. So when I chose to rent Edge of Tomorrow, it definitely wasn’t to see him. Oh no. It was … Continue reading
I rented Maleficent today. I was looking for something not based in reality. Since this is a new DVD release, I figured it would do. In general, I enjoyed the movie. I enjoy retelling of the classic fairy tales. It’s always interesting to see things from different points of view. This was no exception. Like Wicked: The Life … Continue reading
