Did you review Body of Lies a couple of weeks ago? Transporter 3 chick was much better looking than Transporter 2 chick, but I still prefer Transporter chick. |

the new bond movie. Big disapointment. If they told us what the bad guys were up to I didn't notice. The plot seemed to exist only to fill in time between car chases, plane chases and explosions. Indiana Jones and the temple of doom. I always remember hating this movie and didn't remember anything about it but Cate Capshaw screaming, badly. But it was better then I remember. And the kids were riveted. |

I rewatched Quantum of Solace and have really gotten in to it. The action is good, the lines were great without being overly sexual. Waiting for the plot the first time through was overdrawn, but watching it with the knowledge that the bad guys were hoarding water so they could sell it for a large profit really helped with the overall enjoyment of the movie. |

Seven Pounds. Slow start, pissed me off early, but Will Smith did not fail to deliver with Rosario Dawson keeping pace. Great mislead with how he was helping. |

Last Tuesday's movie: "Monsters Vs. Aliens" Pixar's animation, yeay! It's actually a heartwrenching story about assumptions and female empowerment (yeah, when you become the 49' 11" woman, you can be empowered, too!). She has the chance to be normal, or be not normal and save the world... the world wins, natch. If you're a fan of classic B-type SF movies, you'll get all the little in-jokes; Kiefer Sutherland voices Gen. W.R. Monger, and Stephen Colbert does the President--you'll love his attempt to communicate with the alien robot! I wish all cockroaches sounded like Bertie Wooster... ![]() This Tuesday's movie: "Knowing" I think Nick "Jor-El" Cage has been snacking on the mushrooms Mummy told us not to eat while he was reading the Book of Revelation... (...isn't there some kind of commandment against reading the Bible while taking hallucinogenic drugs?) This takes place allegedly in Massachusetts and has lots of great second-unit footage of Boston and Cambridge in the autumn--the movie takes place in October. If you have the chance to visit New England in autumn, please come see the foliage! (or Netflix this movie). Great shots of crew teams rowing on the Charles River, even good shots of Haystack Observatory in Littleton. I was a little surprised that one shot the camera crew could have (and should have) got--but didn't--was of the Longfellow Bridge, notable for its unusually-shaped tall stanchions, known locally as "the salt and pepper shakers." There was one particular scene where it would have been nice to have seen the bridge. Like "Next," this is about Odd Things, except in this case, it begins with a sad little girl 50 years earlier who puts a letter covered with numbers into an elementary school's time capsule. She kept hearing people whispering and went insane because of it. But, fifty years later, who gets the little girl's letter? The son of Nick's character, an astrophysicist at MIT. The little boy, Caleb, has hearing problems and wears a hearing aid to amplify sounds, but he gets static interference more and more--because of sunspot activity causing electrical disturbances in the atmosphere. Yes, of course, the numbers mean something, and the astrophysicist, still grieving over the death of his wife, decodes them and suspects they're about things that he'd really rather not know about. Then it gets sad, and Strange, and just plain Weird. And then the "Whisper People" show up, as Caleb and his new friend Abby call them--four suspicious-looking guys in an old Cadillac who don't speak verbally, but the kids can still hear them whispering. The movie is very Hitchcock-esque, in the sense that things just pop up out of nowhere and scare the heck out of you--well, I don't know about you, but I was wigged. There are scenes that you don't want little kids to see; I think this is PG-13 in the US. One scene will give any kid and most adults nightmares because it's so graphic, frightening, and overwhelming. There's a plane crash like an explosion that you wig out watching then wonder two days later, "how'd they do that without actually crashing a plane?" There is the nearly obligatory discussion of faith and fact, and at the end, it makes a whole lot more sense if you know a lot about a lot--the Books of Ezekiel and Revelation, stellar astrophysics, psychology, probability theory--no I'm not joking; all of that is referenced, visually or in dialogue. It's the kind of movie that keeps you thinking while, and long after, you leave the cinema. It's the kind of movie that you want to discuss with friends--we would have, but it was too cold in the parking lot! Nicholas Cage is actually a rather funny guy--I think he works best when he has some humor to balance the drama or action in a script--and there was nothing at all funny in this movie; it was just that kind of movie. I liked the "National Treasure" movies and "Ghost Rider;" my husband thinks I'm nuts--but those characters Nick played come off as likeable goofs, which makes him appealing--even in "Next" he comes off as a goof with an unwanted ability. After seeing "Next" and "Knowing," I really think Nick ought to be making films with M. Night Shyamalan; in retrospect, I think Nick would have been a better choice for "The Sixth Sense" then Bruce Willis. |

Observe and Report. A few gross scenes aside, it was a very funny movie. Seth Rogen delivers again.

88 Minutes. Unless you are Ali, don't bother. Poorly written from a non-cop cop drama. Ali, Alicia Witt gets a lot of facetime, but no skin. |

Saw Fast & Furious on Saturday. It was all right, kind of fun really. Violent though. Saw Dragonball Evolution on Sunday. I'd never been into Dragonball, but this was actually cute...and fun to watch. |
