Kung Fu Panda (2008) A-
A pleasant surprise. Far, far more enjoyable than WALL-E.

I know pronounce you Chuck & Larry

I saw this movie at the theatre before & it was kinda lame.

But when I watched it again last night it was funny, anything with Adam Sandler in it is funny.

3 1/2 out of 5

Ron Howard: 50 Years in Film

Interesting documentary which was presented by Turner Classic Movies. I didn't quite feel like watching a film so I put this on because I enjoy Ron Howard's films. While he is a Hollywood director, he's somewhat different from the rest.

I've always loved Ron Howard's passion for filmmaking and this documentary was an interesting take on his life. A Beautiful Mind is one of my favorite films, and probably my all-time favorite by Howard. Nice little documentary presented in a very concise structure. I was hoping to see other filmmakers talking about Howard and was surprised to see it was actually Howard reflecting back on his own films. It was quite nice.

Point Break (1991)

This movie is an absolutely terrible Keanuu Reeves/Gary Busey surfer flic. It's extremely cheesy and I am currently being forced to watch it because there's literally nothing else on.

2/10 (Really Gay)

Across the Universe (2007) C
Prim and proper American schoolgirl meets Liverpudlian shipyard worker in this overlong, overly didactic mess of a musical. Set in the '60s, and of course consisting almost entirely of Beatles covers (most pretty terrible), you might enjoy this if:

a) you are high while viewing
b) you are a baby boomer
c) both a and b

The House Without A Christmas Tree

Sort of a tradition to watch this movie with the family every (secular/Western) Christmas. The plot is kind of predictable (it's an older movie; the title pretty much gives the story away ) but it's a nice little movie that puts you right in the Christmas mood. Originally a made-for-TV movie.

8/10 (taking into consideration it's only supposed to be a "dinky" little movie.)

You don't have to make excuses for liking the movie. Rewatchability is a good thing. The Wizard of Oz and Babe are two of my all-time favorite movies, and I watch them whenever they're on TV.

I haven't seen The House Without a Christmas Tree, but I bet the dinky little movie is probably better than most "major" motion pictures released this year. When I learned that Jason Robards and Mildred Natwick were in it, I immediately accessed Netflix account to add it to my queue, only to find that the bytches don't have it.
