There is another thread for this, but the last movie I saw was one called Collinsville. They claimed it was made in 7 days for 10,000 dollars and I can believe it. Lousy acting, nothing was connected, very amatuerish, just plain stupid. At the end credits where it said gaffer, it said couldnt afford one. For best boy it said if we didnt have a gaffer we certainly didnt have a best boy. Except for the ending, it was really different. Probably the most unusual ending in any movie, its worth sitting through this piece of garbage just to see the ending.

It's Disney's Frozen. I tend to watch animations and cartoons now with my kids.

I watched Lincoln last night. What can I say about it except it is the perfect movie. Cant say that about very many.

Welcome to The Riley's
A big disappointment. Mr. Riley(James Gandolfini) tries to rehabilitate a young prostitute, because she looks like his
deceased daughter. He is joined, reluctantly, by his wife(Melissa Leo), who has been a shut-in since their daughter passed. Kirsten Stewart plays the wayward hooker. The acting is first rate. The concept, not so much. A fairy tale
that never gets off the ground. 3 cowbells.

Watched Mud last night. A superb coming of age movie with a great performance from Matthew McConaughey & an equally superb contribution fro Tye Sheridan. A really enjoyable movie night

The Silver Linings Playbook
Tony Soprano used to ask his therapist "Whatever happened to Gary Cooper?" Indeed. You won't find him in this
addled mess. The characters(the "juicy" ones anyway) think they have problems. Chris Tucker is OCD about his hair,
Bradley Cooper his x-wife, and Jennifer Lawrence, dancing. I can't remember any of her lines because I kept
Rewinding and Playing the film's only moderately entertaining image: her derriere. Sacre bleu and move over Bardot!!
Still, even for bottom feeders like myself, there wasn't enough bottom to go around. To save this awful statement
about a culture addicted to the quick fix. Cooper's father is Robert DeNiro, a degenerate gambler who has even
less of a life when The Eagles are in the off season. He's itchy for the vig, if you will. I'm not going to spoil the
ending for you. Right before it ended I got a nosebleed and called my therapist to discuss the nightmare I was in
the middle of. I never got to see the ending because of the tragedy(the nosebleed) in my own life. Alas.
Someone in this movie won an Academy Award. Hooray for Hollywood.
