Movie Review – Babylon
—
Babylon, wow. WTF did I just see? It was a movie full of sensory overload, doubled-up debauchery, glitz, glamour and so much more. IMDB explained it as, “A tale of outsized ambition and outrageous excess, it traces the rise and fall of multiple characters during an era of unbridled decadence and depravity in early Hollywood.”…

Movie Review – I Wanna Dance with Somebody
—
Prior to this movie what I knew about Whitney Houston was that she sang the national anthem for the 1991 super bowl. It was noteworthy to me because… Wow! She hit it out of the park and then some, and the first Gulf War was beginning and so it made it that much more patriotic.…

Movie Review – Puss in Boots: The Last Wish
—
My granddaughter and I had so much fun watching Puss In Boots: The Last Wish. That cat keeps us in stitches. What we really loved was how the movie brought in other fairy tale stories and used them in this storyline. The voices are amazing as is the CG. It was really pretty to look…

Christmas First Watch Review – The Ref (1994)
—
Ah yes, Christmas is, first and foremost, a time for family. Mind you, with a family like this one I can understand why people going off skiing somewhere distant or stock up on microwave roast meals and keep the curtains closed. Throw in the heightened fears of burglary surrounding houses full of brand new gear…

Movie Review – Avatar: The Way of Water
—
I’m not wowed by the movie, but I wasn’t disappointed. I can’t see the movie in 3D until Wednesday. I’ll update my review afterward to speak to the 3D quality. But based in what I saw, I’ll bet it’s pretty stunning. Pros I enjoyed the dynamic that the child characters added. Specifically, Kiri, voiced by…

Christmas Classic First Watch Review – We’re No Angels (1955)
What links Batman, James Bond, The Man From U.N.C.L.E., and Steptoe & Son? Obviously, one answer is the 1955 film We’re No Angels otherwise I’d be rambling even more than usual! There is also more than a sprinkling of whimsy and imagination but I’m guessing you’re all getting used to that by now. Incidentally, this…

Best Of British Biographies – Judi Dench

in BiographyI know there are always tales of stage or screen royalty and there are some people who you tend to assume are the rightful occupants of that title. Ian McKellen, Helen Mirren, Maggie Smith, Michael Caine, Anthony Hopkins, and Patrick Stewart are the leading examples of their generation. Amongst them there is one more who,…

Christmas Classic First Watch Review – Stalag 17 (1953)
—
Now, before we get too far into this, let me make one thing clear. This is, most definitely, a film set at Christmas rather than a Christmas film. However, the remit was to include every film that has a Christmas tree, Christmas card, a red nosed reindeer, or mentions Christmas. Stalag 17 is set in…
