Still Alice, it was about Alzheimer's, early onset of it.

Julianne Moore was the lead actress and did a superb job.

A tear jerker for sure.

I saw Pitch Perfect 2 today. It was good. One of my favorite parts of the trailers was not in the movie so that was unexpected. Actually there were two parts in the trailer that are not in the movie.

I liked it though.

Last night we watched The Seven Five, a documentary about the dirtiest cop in NYC history. Michael Dowd! He stole money and dealt drugs while patrolling the streets of 80s Brooklyn. I enjoyed it but may not be for everyone!

The Hobbit - An Unexpected Journey

The Hobbit - The Desolation of Smaug

You can never go wrong with a Hobbit movie. Going to order The Battle of the Five Armies next.

Then today I watched The Prize Winner of Defiance Ohio. First, I am a huge Julianne Moore fan and she did not disappoint in this. Again I thought "chick flick" .. again NOT that there is anything wrong with them..

..however, as it turned out - it was such a touching story (and based on a true story)..I may have had to dab my eyes with some Kleenex. (do not judge me). I highly recommend the movie.

Of Human Bondage 1934

Finally watched this in full. Well worth it. Timless.

I REALLY want to see this - and I am a huge Julianne Moore fan. Have this on my list.

These will arrive tomorrow:

The Hobbit - The Battle of the Five Armies

Atonement - This sweeping English drama, based on the book by Ian McEwan, follows the lives of young lovers Cecilia Tallis (Keira Knightley) and Robbie Turner (James McAvoy). When the couple are torn apart by a lie constructed by Cecilia's jealous younger sister, Briony (Saoirse Ronan), all three of them must deal with the consequences. Robbie is the hardest hit, since Briony's deception results in his imprisonment, but hope for Cecilia and her beau increases when their paths cross during World War II.

Hot pursuit...reese witherspoon and sophia Vergara

Funny!

Tomorrow...Far from the Madding Crowd

Saw a trailer for Jurrasic World, can't wait!

Gemme · 05-23-2015, 08:36 PM

I saw Spare Parts, about 4 high school kids that enter an underwater robotics competition against college kids. It's based on a real story. The movie itself was okay. The story is what is so inspirational. George Lopez is in it with Jamie Lee Curtis and Marisa Tomei.

I hope you get to see it soon.

Saw Tomorrowland at the drive-in last night. I liked it, but I like almost all things Disney. It reminded me somewhat of the Young Adult/Hunger Games-type genre, and somewhat of the live action Disney movies of the 70s. George Clooney was very good in it. It was visually very exciting, in that immersion-in-wonder kind of Disney way. The story was pretty exciting in some parts, too, but it was too long and could probably have easily lost 15 minutes and been a better movie.

Well, before I took off for the wild I saw Still Alice - umm yes, a tear jerker for real. Julianne Moore was wonderful, as always.

I also saw John Wick with Keanu Reeves.

Legendary assassin John Wick (Keanu Reeves) retired from his violent career after marrying the love of his life. Her sudden death leaves John in deep mourning. When sadistic mobster Iosef Tarasov (Alfie Allen) and his thugs steal John's prized car and kill the puppy that was a last gift from his wife, John unleashes the remorseless killing machine within and seeks vengeance. Meanwhile, Iosef's father (Michael Nyqvist) -- John's former colleague -- puts a huge bounty on John's head.

Now I am not normally a Keanu Reeves fan, a friend of mine suggested this. I actually really liked it. Very good.

I would recommend both of these movies.

Gemme · 05-25-2015, 04:13 PM

I saw Tomorrowland today. The movie itself was very good. The acting was well done and the visual cornucopia was spectacular.

BUT

In the first few minutes, I was thrown off by some mistakes made with young Frank's bag. One scene, the bag is wet. The next scene, the bag is dry. One scene, the bag is 3-4 feet away. The next scene, the bag was directly at his feet and he just picked it up. Those blatant mistakes distracted me from the movie for a little bit but I got into it shortly thereafter.

BUT

There was a surprise that tickled me to no end. THIS young man is in the movie. Anyone notice why I might be happy with that?

A prize goes to the first to see it.
