Loved it! Really well done through all the seasons!

A 10 part series on Apple+, about how the group Monarch was formed and how the secrets of the Titans have been kept and now passed down to a third generation. Kurt Russell and his son Wyatt play the same character generations apart, which is a wonderful character study for them. His character is the...

Oppenheimer: great film, so many wonderful performances! Trolls Band Together: silly animated sequel, some very funny 'boy band' moments throughout. Leo: Adam Sandler as a lizard classroom pet, who fears he is dying without seeing the world outside the school...very silly, musical numbers are dumb, ...

What type of violins does he have? Might have some contacts in the classical music world who might have interest.

Another option is to donate to local school music programs and take a tax deduction.

The Creator: an interesting spin on the AI vs Humans trope..a few familiar actors (Gemma Chan, Allison Janey), plenty of CGI, and the conundrum of sacrifice for the greater good of one kind or all kind.

The Killer: Michael Fassbender as an elite killer dealing with issues when a job goes wrong. Thriller with a good amount of dark humor. Pay close attention to all the different aliases he uses..quite fun!

A Haunting in Venice: another fine film in the series of Agatha Christie works by Kenneth Branagh. Plenty of unlikely twists and turns with the backdrop of Venice ( I suspect some liberal CGI clean up of the city and definitely the water, and all the more modern day boats and what-not ). You can cer...

Only if you believe you can pry the cranberry sauce from my cold dead hands...solid 'NO' vote for more candy corn and ding dong beggars!

All quiet on the Halloween front here as well. Cold weather and not many trick or treaters this year.

An observation on 'Dial of Destiny' and 'Dead Reckoning': both films had male stars who are aging out of the leading male/hero archetype, and in both films, they put these men into the tiniest Fiats for an extended car chase scene. In DoD, it WAS an upgrade from a tuk-tuk 3 wheeler, and in DR, it wa...

Am watching this at the moment , after putting it off for weeks...I should have continued to decline ...what a sad state of the franchaise to put this out there as the Ford swan song...films 1-3 were a nice tryptic where plot and action married well with performances and a dash of humor. ..oh well, ...

No One Will Save You: another take on alien invasion of sorts...Katelyn Dever is fantastic in this mediocre scifi horror flick...some decent scares and wtf moments along the way.

Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning part 1: pretty much like all the previous teeny tiny tommy turns as Ethan Hunt...lots of action...plenty of stunts screamimg 'i am still young and struggling to be butch'...some decent humor scattered here and there (think top gear gone horribly wrong in the best w...

The last episodes of season 4 are dropping finally...still strange as ever!

Saw this bomb today...iffy plot, iffy characters, awful acting...and I've enjoyed many parts of the franchaise over time. Very sad to see it go down in flames!
