(Fascinating History Lesson) – – I have said this many times over the years: Steve Jobs (and the Woz) were not afraid to innovate. They changed the world…..more than once. The last speech in this movie brought me to tears. “Jobs” is a wonderful movie that I think is totally mis-understood by the non-techy, too young generation, of movie reviewers

Read more(Wonderful, Funny, Zooey) – – Paul Rudd (as Ned) is really not an idiot. He is an innocent child-like man who puts his faith in other people, hoping that the best in them will come out if given the chance. He is honest to a fault…and he loves Willie Nelson. Trusting a local cop who asks to buy some pot,

Very cool…especially the music. 🙂 Us old folks will remember this song with nostalgia growing up on Long Island hitting the surf at Gilgo Beach…ahhh, memories.

What it is is a sweet, low key (well, most of the time), well acted escape movie, with a heart of gold. Simon Pegg (as Graeme Willy) and Nick Frost (as Clive Gollings) are on vacation from the

A state-of-mind where I can be an ape leading a revolution, a plain man learning how to pick up beautiful women, a skinny kid super hero, a chubby zookeeper talking with animals, and,
Read more(stupid fun) — – 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 part.
