Initial plot is barely believable, once past that, you have to over come the lady playing the Government employees horrible acting......its like his next door neighbor was promised the role and actually let her do it. I like the tricky premise and forgive some of the weakness of story to get a little more meat and potatoes out of this film.....never actually delivers the big moment......it is watchable, just dont expect Interstellar or Contact type of movie, does have some time travel aspects, which is where the plot is at its best. Pass if sock drawer is dirty.

Seberg
(2019)
I really liked it.
23 August 2021
Though I confess I have a crush on the actress playing Sebring. Total hotty. This is a good look for her. Had never heard of this lady. I liked it, though it did drag a lil in the middle......I would watch it again, and take Kristen Stewart out to dinner in a hot second, if only.
See You Yesterday
(2019)
Grippingly realistic
23 March 2021
Warning: Spoilers
I swear I had tears maybe 4 separate times watching this movie. It's simple. Local. But, the butterfly effect from past quantum movies has made clear the endless loop of correctional corruption to the jump......Brian Bradley really had my heart strings jumping the way he handled himself in this movie. Anything to do with family, love, doing the right thing, mixed with brutality, senseless killing, modern police paradigms that ring true to the point it's a given. And that's the saddest part of all.......they can't fix that, they can only try to avoid that, because it's going to happen anyway......somewhere. the unsaid thing. Is the biggest elephant in the room......makes you think. Made me login here to plant my rating and review. If you have some time to spare, this movie is simple, but it is not boring in any way.....the acting, the wholesomeness of the families, sets this movie apart..... plausible. Plus Spike Lee produced it......which might be why soooo much hits home. I'm a white guy crying multiple times watching this, looking at my door, hoping someone doesn't walk in and see me crying.....but, it's not wrong to cry for humanity. So I am posting this to share the plight.....in my own way......I have no agenda, no disrespect, no answers to blindly call out, stating my obvious position, the white one.....it's beyond that.....on a human level, this hit home, I highly recommend it. I just do.
Messiah
(2020)
So Watchable
16 January 2021
I'm not religious in any way, no church, never read the Bible, but like movies. This series, was captivating. Draws you in......keeps you guessing, the main star is absolutely perfectly cast as the Messiah. Great performance. I really liked this series. Do yourself a favor, pull up a chair. Watch.
Unhinged
(I) (2020)
Holds your attention but
16 January 2021
All and all, a really hard to believe movie......the flick is corny.......crowe is good but the whole thing isnt believable. Will never watch again. Can't get that 97 or whatever minutes back.....do yourself a favor, go walk the dog and love your family.....it's time better spent.
Casual Encounters
(2016)
i'm not here to summarize the movie, only review it
6 September 2016
It said i would be blacklisted if i gave away the movie. so i promise i won't even talk about it.....
So there i was sitting at the keyboard and knowing i couldn't actually talk about the movie while reviewing it was kind of an exciting moment......
so i relate to the characters, because, well, i just broke up with my girlfriend.....is that a give away? maybe i should just stop here.....jeez.
i really liked it, the movie, not my relationship, i was a bit tentative when i started watching this movie....because I was worried I would see my new ex in all of the ladies...and I kinda did....but it made it fun....sort of....
I found myself laughing out loud, by myself, alone, just me.....oh god, maybe I should call someone......so I found myself at peace with everything, while it was on, and I'm okay with that for now.
It was a pleasure to watch, and enjoy, and to HAVE to laugh when i might not feel like it, is SO good for me.....I didn't even know I needed to, but I feel oddly better after watching it.
OK, maybe I should leave my number here, I am not into ya know, "blumpkin" either., in case you were thinking I was....I promise.....god, is that a give away.....never mind, I didn't mean it....I should go.....but I feel I will miss my new friends in this movie......its that good. I can finally relate...
That's all i dare say.....oh, and David Arquette has a bad rap, no he doesn't, but i must say, as much as he might deserve the rap, he does have star power. Is that a thing? Sounds astrological...in the movie.....he pulls it off, whatever they were going for, and even though I think most of his character's role got put on the floor, as in cutting room.....because the dude is barely in it, he is, but you don't have to dislike that he is, really....so get over yourself. If you are hater's, you can put away your hate shooters.....he does good, for the movie.....that's all I will say.
My first review...WOW, I finally did it, after, what 10 years....its been building up I guess.......so there ya have it. thanks for reading. I'm sorry if I didn't refer to the movie that much, I thought I shouldn't actually refer to it at all out of fear, the IMDb police might come a knocking.....Casual Encounter's is a stand alone work of cinema, fun fiction if you will. That I give it a thumb up. (or should i say two thumbs? I almost used a penis reference instead of my thumb, but didn't want to offend anyone. Or have you thinking it was small. Like a thumb, kinda by itself, without the other fingers next to it. Anyway, so I left it out {the reference, not my penis, really}.....shoot, I'm rambling...OK, i'm leaving now.)
P.S. They are pretty average thumbs i guess, as for, ya know, how thumbs go....after all. OK, I'm depressed again.....I wonder if I should consider thumb surgery? Now that's a scary thought. Anyway, the movie is good. Feel free to enjoy it. In fact maybe I will watch it again. So I don't have to be alone right now. OK, so, goodbye I guess, or whatever. Carry on. Maybe I shouldn't review anything else for awhile...or see if anyone like's my review?
