This is one of those movies where you’ll see the trailer and think, “hmmmm, that looks interesting. I’ll have to see that when it comes out.” So you do and when you get home later that day, you really don’t[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

I probably haven’t enjoyed a Spike Lee film so much since “Summer of Sam” (and that was nearly 20 years ago!)
This is a nice little film that, like I say in the review, covers familiar ground. But thanks to the leads (McGregor & Atwell) and the voice actors (especially Jim Cummings who does a great Winnie the Pooh, reminiscent of[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I remember liking the first Mission: Impossible film (1996) despite the fact that they made Phelps a bad guy, but the 2000 sequel didn’t do much for me so I never saw Mission Impossible 3. When I saw a trailer[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
