November Movie Review

Whoops, forgive my tardiness! I usually write my reviews and post them at the first of the month, but I forgot. Let me do that now.

Here is what we watched last month:

1. Lost (season 1) - We had started watching this back in October and were able to finish it. Of course, I've seen it already but Ryan has not. I can't tell you how much I enjoy watching it a second time. It's fun to watch it with someone who is is new to it and doesn't know what is going on! I love it when Ryan says "What?! What was that?" or "What is he DOING?!" hee hee Well, I know, but I'm not gonna tell! nee-ner nee-ner nee-ner!

2. Lost (season 2, well part of it) - Again, we only got about half way through. It's good man and I can't wait for Ryan to see how this season ends! Can't wait!

3. Amazing Grace - This was a recounting of the life of William Wilberforce during his time in Parliment and his actions that resulted in the end of the slave trade in England. I enjoyed it very much and thought it was well done. I like watching these kinds of movies, the kind that recount factual events. I highly recommend this one!

4. Spiderman 3 - Well, can't get much different from Amazing Grace now can we? What can I say about Spidey other than he was a big blockbuster film, was the third in the series, and I needed closure. The movie was fine. It was dark, as I had heard, but not bad. It still feels open ended, leaving room for yet another sequel. Phooey!

My favorite, by far, was Amazing Grace (not that didn't enjoy Lost, I did, but hey I can only have one favorite!). I would like to see more films like this. Anyone have any suggestions?

So, what IS it about the Spiderman movies that makes us women love watching them too?? That is so NOT my genre of movie but I love them and ache for the day when they come out again. I too thought it was very open ended. I was thinking, now what else could they do? And then the ending came! GRRRR! And guess what? I checked online and 4 is in production! I am Not a huge T.M. fan, as far as thinking he is "hot" or whatever so I still don't know why I love the movies so much.

I should rewatch the Lost series. It seems like it has been for-ev-er since it was on. I need my Matthew Fox fix. Okay, I admit, I need a Sawyer fix too. ;)

I've wanted to see both Amazing Grace and Spiderman, but haven't yet. I feel the same about Spiderman. I almost feel like I should see it since I've seen the other 2. Amazing Grace looks good, we'll have to give it a try.
