In keeping with my, things to do to keep myself busy and
from missing my precious Angel while she is gone, list, I have been watching
and going to the movies. Here are a few
that I have seen recently.
The Iron Lady - Meryl
Streep's performance was awesome however, I was confused with the constant
back-and-forth flash backs, her dead husband, her dementia, and what story was
really being conveyed about her? One
good thing was that I had to go back and freshen up on my history to figure out
what was actually going on at the time.
Tinker Tailor Solider
Spy - is a mouthful to say and a bit much to watch. I felt like I watching an old version of The Matrix not knowing what in the world
was going on! I needed a manual to follow this movie. I don't know what happened because I didn’t
finish it.
Out Loud and
Incredibly Close – was good. I
thought it was going to be more about September 11th than it
was. It is really about the relationship
this boy has with his parents. The
father that he lost and the mother he is left with. It’s a little long, but in the end not what
you are expecting.
The Descendants - was
actually really good, and I enjoyed it immensely. After watching it I thought, what would I do
if I were in his shoes? I can tell you
this I would have sold that property as I think most people not in a movie
would have done.
The Avengers – not
really my choice and I bet you all can guess what happens. Here’s a clue….. the good guys defeat the bad
guys and win! I know it’s hard to
believe because that storyline has never been done before.
Last night I went and saw Snow White and the Huntsman. This
movie was long and could have done without a few of the drawn out scenes in the
forest. Kristen Stewart played the same
sweet, eye blinking, damsel in distress that was in all the Twilight
movies. Chris Hemsworth made the movie
watchable (at least for me ;) as he aided the fierce Snow White to victory over
the want-to-be fairest of them all, queen.
The one thing that I got out of this movie is that women will do
anything to stay young and beautiful, even kill………
I have tried to stay away from sappy movies that would make
me cry or sad but refuse to see any comedy with Sacha Baron Cohen. I am looking forward to Rock of Ages and of course Magic
Mike!
