I saw the new Die Hard Sunday afternoon. You already know what it's about, so I don't really have to share a whole lot of the story line, apparently all Die Hard movies are about the same.
This is the first Die Hard movie I've seen & I honestly liked it. Yes, it had bombs & exposions & people dying, but it was good. Bruce Willis was great of course & I also liked the "I Am Mac" guy. He did a really good job. The basic storyline of this one is about a group of hackers taking over US government operations. It was a little intense, but I managed. I'm usually not big on suspense, but this was ok.
Overall, it was really good & I would definitely recommend it. It was rated PG13, so not suitable for everyone, but my husband said it was a lot more tame than the other Die Hard movies. So, go see it!

Flip A Coin
Flip A Coin is an independent film that my husband & I rented at Blockbuster tonight. It's about two friends who are only interested in picking up women. They live together & one of them is supposed to go to Spain for a couple weeks & leave the other with a beautiful woman staying in his room. The friend misses his plane & interfers with the other guy's couple weeks with the pretty girl. However, the pretty girl wants their help with robbing her boss.
Yeah, it's a pretty crazy movie. However, it's very artsy, so I kind of liked it. It has no known actors & it's not made buy anyone you've ever heard of. But, I thought it was pretty enjoyable. And I liked that it wasn't too serious.
However, there's language & nudity & adult themes & all that. So it's not recommended to everyone for every event. But it's definitely a change from the norm.
Overall, I thought it was good. Rent it :)

Aurora Borealis
Aurora Borealis stared Joshua Jackson, Donald Sutherland, Juliette Lewis, and Louise Fletcher. The story is about a man named Duncan who takes a job near his critically ill grandfather (Sutherland) and his grandmother (Fletcher). He meets Kate, his grandfather's nurse (Lewis) and develops a romantic relationship with her. He also grows closer to his grandfather and learns important life lessons about living and dying.
Aurora Borealis is a great story and I would definitely recommend the movie. It is rated R for language, so it would not be appropriate for children. I did cry, but I cry a lot anyway. The acting probably could have been better, but the story made up for it with me. Overall, good movie.

Off The Black
Off The Black is about the unlikely relationship that develops between an old umpire, Ray (Nick Nolte) and a high school pitcher, Dave (Trevor Morgan). After losing a big game, Dave, along with friends, trashes Ray's yard and is caught. The friends abandon him, but Dave promises Ray to clean up his yard and replace a broken window. As Dave begins to spend time cleaning up Ray's yard, the two begin to develop a friendship. Ray ends asks Dave to attend his 40 Year High School Reunion with him, pretending to be his son.
The movie develops the relationship between the two, each one helping the other out. Neither of the two come without baggage, but they grow into a father/son type of relationship.
I really liked the movie. Personally, I like movies that focus on relationships, which this one did very nicely. Ray played the role of Dave's father and took Dave fishing as well as taught him some life lessons. Dave played the role of Ray's absent son and Ray realized that he actually would have been a pretty good father. It is rated R and has language, so I can't recommend it for everyone, but overall, it's a good movie.

Welcome!
I decided to start this blog to post about movies that I've seen recently (or possibly in the past). My husband is basically crazy about movies, so I've gradually been developing my own taste in film.
Here's my plan:
Pick a movie (only 1 movie per post)
Give a brief introduction into what the movie is about (I will try to include a list of actors, but I'm really bad with names!)
My view - loved it, liked it, hated it
Who should see it (if anyone)
We'll see how this goes. I'm sure things will change! Feel free to leave me feedback about what you'd like to see on here!
Thanks!
