The Pool (2007)
Quality in Story, characters acting and entertainment
This is a Great move because of the Characters, the pace, the story the acting. If you watch this movie you will come away with a feel good. I dont even want to give details. Its just a very special movie. Its simple, its innocent, its special, its humanity.
As silly as it sounds i really like the non stop ACTION or should i say MOVEMENT of the young main character in the movie. You will have to watch to understand what i mean. Cleaning, pruning, cutting, stacking, rowing. Its pretty funny.
Enjoy. Worth the watch.
En man som heter Ove (2015)
------------ Classic -----------------
Love, Romance, humor, humanity, entertaining.
but holy moly the actress that plays his wife. WOW !!!
Worth the time to watch. Settle in and let it unfold.
Only the Brave (2017)
ok...wut??
First off let me qualify myself folks. I am of sound mind and I enjoy a gude movie. Like say Schindler, usual suspects, lebowski, etc. having said that i was TRULY excited about seeing this movie because I like Josh, Jennifer, and of course Mr. Bridges. Ok let me give you a review of this movie.
Starts, guys enter scene, more guys enter. Josh is a superintendent of fire fighters he picks guys up they go to warehouse talk, laugh, Josh is married to Jennifer who , OMG...looks emaciated I almost thought she hasnt stopped the coke since filming requiem. Ok their relationship is strained but you have to guess why.
Josh is training men. Enter a druggie loser that wants to be hired. WUT?? cmon
So Joshs character is supposed to convey Alpha male on Steroids and YET...we are to believe he is going to hire a friggin druggie loser for one of the most dangerous jobs on the planet?? wow...ok..so...i move on..
More guys, more talk, more time, more guys and talk and shovels and picks and burning and fire and family picnics...Enter Jeff bridges. Im laughing right now. They have his character as what apparently is a full mouth full of snuff the way he talks. It was embarrassing. WHEN will hollywood give these two guys a good script?? sheesh
ok...now into an hour and a half. more talk, laughin, guffawing, family scwabbles i.e. the women arent happy with the mens hours ..hahahahaha...cmon, they signed up for the job.
Lend me end this right now. The movie basically comes to an glorious end by showing 19 charred remains of guy that laid on their face in protective bags.
I give this movie a ONE out of five and truly do not understand the high reviews. If this movie ever comes on again on cable ...I would not watch, and that folks is how I judge a movie. How bout you?? Thats what i thought.

Pride & Prejudice (2005)
Wow....!!!
Do yourself a favor. Watch with your significant other. This is Just a FANTASTIC movie at all levels. Extremely entertaining (NO LULLS) Smart script. Incredible cinematography great acting and story. Draws you in and doesnt let go until its over.
It comes loaded with all of the old school grace and charm that is lacking in our society. As an example one scene where Mr. Darcy is helping Lizzie into her carriage he gently guides her hand as the camera zooms in on their hands and then backs off to Mr. Darcy walking away then zooms in to him extending his fingers showing the effect just her touch had on him. Another Scene Lizzies sister is wearing a sheer white dress to a ball and her love interest walks up behind her and for a split second grasps the dress material between his thumb and forefinger. We get the point. He is mesmerized by her presence.
I would be remiss if i didnt mention the FLAWLESS character of Lizzies father Donald Sutherland. His role as father to several daughters is amazing. Especially the relationship between him and Lizzie, his obvious favorite. Any father who has daughters will totally relate.
One complaint. The old english verbiage is so pedantic that i like to watch with subtitles to understand - "what they hell did she say??
10 stars for sure and BRAVO !!!
Wonder (2017)
WUT? Cmon-- 8.1 ?? Really Imdb fans...no way
Ok so i read most of the reviews saw the imdb rating and thought "OK, might be a gude movie to check out with my sweetie. Alot of the reviews mentioned feel good, tears, family etc. and I like most of Wilson and whats her names movies. So i settle in and await the entertainment.
Suffice to say it NEVER came. NOT ONCE...Mom and dad have an ugly kid. The ugly kids has an older sister. They all love ugly kid. Ugly kid wears a space suit helmet, but only sometimes?? He timidly enters School wondering how its going to go. Much to my shock and awe. The kids stare at him and make fun /sarc. Shocking right?
He makes friends he loses friends. He is teased, made fun of behind his back. WoW...like none of us has ever had to endure that as a kid. I was totally emotionless through the entire movie. I didnt really care about the kid his parents nor his sister. oH wait,...then they bring in one of the sisters friends who suddenly stops being friends with the ugly kids sister..Why? dunno...they never really clearly spell it out..
Cliched, vacuous, boring, empty, predictable, Not for adults. Caveat. If you have kids 12 and under probably a pretty gude time waster for them.
Wind River (2017)
wut?
OK, allow me to preface by saying I am a movie buff and pride myself in being totally objective when watching a movie. I regularly check out the rotten tomato new list and their scores. I often times cannot fathom the interest in movies like la la land and or the manchester disaster.
Well I thought i had heard and seen it all until this wind river epic failure. I read the reviews and I like the actors so i sat down with a chica friend of mine, which i purposefully study movies before suggesting them to her, and we proceeded to watch this disaster.
Suffice to say i can tell if im going to like a movie (like a Scorsese) within the first few minutes. So the movie starts. Dialogue, snow, mountains, more dialogue, mountains, snow. An hour in and nothing changes. At this point im like wtf? I don't care about the story. I don't care about the subject matter and i don't care about the characters. Finally an hour and change into the movie we get some action, but its redunculous. A bunch of law enforcement officers pointing their guns at each other and screaming. Gude gawd help me. I get a laugh out of the positive reviews. I like sending them as a joke to the gal that watched the movie with me. EPIC FAIL.......
Killer of Sheep (1978)
