A Movie Round Up

Hello Bloggers!!

I’ve seen a fair amount of films recently and wanted to give my two cents on them.  With that said let’s dive right in.

First is a pair of documentaries.  The new Michael Moore movie, Fahrenheit 11/9, is out.  Did I enjoy it? The wording of that question maybe wrong.  I thought it was thought provoking and not as extreme as some other of his movies.  It did have some extreme moments though.  I really was impressed with how Michael Moore dug into Obama, at times.  The second documentary, and almost a complete 180, is Love Gilda.  I, of course, loved it.  I went in really bias though, I’m a huge fan of Gilda Radner.  

Sticking with genres in pairs I saw the comedies The Happy Time Murders and Night School.  I laughed a lot at both films.

The Nun was another one I was looking forward to seeing.  I thought the story needed some work but overall enjoyed the film.  It had some pretty good scares.

The Wife was powerful and Glenn Close will surely compete for an Oscar this year.

Green Book was FANTASTIC!! Viggo Mortensen and Maherhala Ali (Moonlight, Hidden Figures) both were at the top of their craft in this movie.  While the story has been told before it’s still a thought provoking must see.

Finally I got to see an old friend on the big screen again.  Young Frankenstein may not be my favorite Mel Brooks film but its pretty close to the top of the list.  I laughed at the same jokes with eager anticipation.  

Now back to preparing for DVD night!
