BAD LIEUTENANT

I think the title says it all!

I love Nicolas Cage. I was excited to see what he would do with this movie. In my opinion he either let the director ruin his performance or he just wanted to mess around with his role.

I think he was over the top and missed the mark.

Eva Mendes was his co star and I'm a fan of her too. She tried to believe her role but fell short. The director Werner Herzog had to have lead her to her flat performance.

I could not recommend this movie!

CRAZY HEART

I thought this was a western when I first heard the title LOL...

For me it had a slow start. I won't go into details because I don't want to spoil it for you but it's about a singer who needs to find himself.

I like Jeff Bridges. He did a great job as usual. The acting was good. It's not a movie I personally would not buy it but I think it's worth watching.

THE OPEN ROAD

The open road was a great movie. My husband even like it LOL...

It's a family story basically about learning what to cherish. The father and mother help their son open his eyes about a relationship he broke up due to "work".

The acting was wonderful and the pace not too fast and not too slow. It gets a thumbs up in my book!

LONG TIME!

I haven't posted for a long time! I've been getting back into the world.

I plan on getting at least one movie reviewed a week maybe more. Just wanted you to know I'm still here!

The reason I started this post is because I had spine surgery 9 months ago. Watching movies kept me sane!

I'm getting better so my work has taken me away from my movie addiction.

I need to remember to relax and movies do that for me so I plan on watching more and telling you about them :)

THE MAIDEN HEIST

I love the actors that were in this movie. Christopher Walker, Morgan Freeman and William Macy are a great team but I thought the movie was just okay.

It's an over done plot that has a couple of fun twists in it but for the most part it was very weak.

I felt sorry for the actors because it looked like they were trying to make this movie work but just couldn't do it.

I'm not sorry I saw it but I wouldn't see it again that's for sure.

MY LEFT FOOT

This was a very good movie. It's a true story about the author and artist Christy Brown.

The acting was good and the story line flowed well. If you're looking for an inspiring story to lift your spirits this one.

GREEN FINGERS

Green Fingers is based on true story. It shares how life just can't be figured out and that it pays off to stick around and see what is around the bend.

The acting was great and the plot wonderful. It was a beautiful movie to watch as well. This is well worth your time.
