Black Widow (2021)
Save Your Money
What a total disappointment. Yes, there are great action scenes and the acting is good, however, the plot and storyline and script are worse than bad. This movie had a very bizarre beginning and then nothing pieces together after that. No one in our house had a clue what was going on. I am not a writer but am very confident that I could have written something much better than this. This is poor storytelling.
Modern Love (2019)
Highly Satisfying Stories of Love
A compilation of unique stories of love - not necessarily romantic love. The stories are each beautiful in their unique way but the incredible production quality and incredible acting of these little stories have me blown away! Turn off your phone, get a candle and a glass of wine (or cup of tea) and curl up with a blanket on the sofa... you are about to enjoy some highly satisfying entertainment.
Wonderstruck (2017)
Not a fan
This movie had some potential to have a good storyline, but, the story just was not good. It was incredibly frustrating in parts, moved incredibly slow and had no interesting characters or intrigue to the story. I honestly stuck it out because my husband wouldn't give up on it. I am incredibly disappointed that it had no twists or good closure. The music was weird in parts. I neither laughed, nor cried, nor was interested in the characters or how the story turned out. It just fails for me.
Young Sheldon (2017)
Good Television
It is so rare these days to find a wholesome, good quality show but look no more! This show offers great writing, acting and humor. Can be enjoyed by anyone - familiarity with The Big Bang Theory show is not necessary - this show stands alone as a wonderful show.
I Can Only Imagine (2018)
A movie for everyone
This is one of the best done Christian based movies I have ever seen - great production quality and acting. But it is a story for everyone. The story of forgiveness and redemption never gets old and who doesn't need to have their hope in humans restored in these dark times?
Inside Man (2006)
Cannot recommend
While I am not a sophisticated movie reviewer, I do watch a lot of movies. I cannot recommend this one. The biggest reason is because we don't know the robbers motive and backstory - this really harms the movie. It was so disappointing for me. I didn't root for anyone and I'm left without knowing the point of the movie. Additionally, unless I dozed off, I didn't understand why they were digging a hole into the concrete floor - what was the objective of this and why didn't the police find the hole in the floor? I personally didn't like the mood of the movie, nor did I feel that it was well casted - William Defoe and Denzel Washington just didn't sell for me. Finally, I feel a little obtuse here, but I didn't understand Jodie Fosters character in this movie at all.
On the upside, I did enjoy the plot twists. It had potential.
Logan Lucky (2017)
This movie had so much potential
I was really looking forward to this movie since it is partly set in my home state of North Carolina. The premise had a lot of potential, but, unfortunately, was not submitted to the right people to refine the script and add a better score and soundtrack - this could have been a fun movie. That is the nicest thing I have to say about the movie. The acting was bad, some lines were mumbled, the photography angles were off, the funny scenes just didn't come off as funny.
One Day at a Time (2017)
LOVE LOVE LOVE this show!
Every single show makes me laugh and most make me also cry. I love the characters, the story lines, the ethnicity - I wish I were Cuban!!!! Fun show with real issues and great acting. I love the new and improved Schneider - he's super cool and very easy on the eyes plus he has such a warm heart and love for his Cuban tenants. Rita is just fabulous! I just finished binge watching season one and look forward to another season!
