    “Zoolander” Movie Review

    We watched this on VUDU. Ben Stiller (as Derek Zoolander) is the top male model in the world.  Unfortunately, his brain power does not match his looks and this makes him the perfect person to train to assassinate the Prime Minister of Malaysia. Will Ferrell (as mega designer Jacobim Mugatu) is off the wall bad in this…

    “He’s just not that into you” Movie Review

      — — We watched this on VUDU. A cast full of stars agonizing over the fact that if a guy wants to call you back (or marry you), he will.  If he does not want to call you back (or marry you) he won’t. DUH. A fun movie, funny in parts, angst ridden. With…

  • “Take Me Home Tonight” Movie Review

    (fun coming of age movie) — — We watched this on VUDU and really enjoyed it.  If I would have known how good this movie was when we went to see the awful “Rango”, we would have seen this movie instead. It’s 1988, and recent MIT engineering graduate, Topher Grace (as Matt Franklin) is working…

    “Rise of the Planet of the Apes” Movie Review

     (tense, frightening, realistic) — — James Franco (as Will Rodman) is a brilliant scientist testing the effects of a drug he has developed to, hopefully, cure Alzheimer’s.   The mission is personal since his father (the brilliant John Lithgow as Charles Rodman) has that disease. Franco’s latest breakthru is a chimp named “Bright Eyes”.  But something…

    “Crazy Stupid Love” Movie Review

    We have seen a number of great movies lately.  When you are swept away in a world of fantasy for 2 hours while the cares of the real world drift away…that is a great movie. This is a great movie, complete with the most surprising twists I have seen, and the funniest 7 or 8…

    “Captain America” Movie Review

    “Captain America” Movie Review (Exciting, Engaging) Chris Evans (Steve Rogers / Captain America) is a skinny, small, sickly young man trying to enlist in the Army to help his country during WWII.  Unfortunately, he is 4F.  But he never gives up. Eventually, Stanley Tucci (Dr. Abraham Erskine) happens upon Rogers and gives him 1A status…

    “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2” Movie Review Update 1/14/2016: Today we lost Alan Rickman….Snape.  You are terribly missed. Even though we knew what would be happening, it was magical to see the vision on the big screen.  They made some changes from the book, but, it was all good. Harry, Hermione, and…
