The Amazing Spider-Man - Rated PG-13 (Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Rhys Ifans)
The Amazing Spider-Man - Rated PG-13 (Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Rhys Ifans)
We started the Spider-Man franchise again, and it’s quite good. Go back to the beginning to see the origin of the webbed wonder. Garfield under the mask hits all the right notes. Despite some skepticism, The Amazing Spider-Man works.
Arthur Christmas- Rated PG (voices of James McAvoy, Jim Broadbent and Imelda Staunton)
Truly a great little Christmas movie that will be a lot of enjoyment for the entire family. This one could become a regular appearance in many households every Christmas season. Hopefully it’s not lost in the shuffle after waiting a year for its DVD release. Get this one!

Sorry for the delay in posting -- been a bit under the weather here the last day and a half and hadn't already set this to post.
Footloose – Rated PG-13 (Kenny Wormald, Julianne Hough)
Sure you’ve seen the classic with Kevin Bacon – or if you haven’t get back and see it. Here we get an updated look at the film that really made us want to dance. Most of the songs carry the same lyrics with a new arrangement. The storyline is almost identical with some minor updates. And the bottom line is, it was a lot more fun than I had imagined it would be.
Immortals – Rated R (Kellan Lutz, Mickey Rourke)
A king, a weapon, lots of fighting – do I need to say more? Wasn’t offered for theatrical review but looks to be the perfect rental.
I like Adam Sandler – there I said it. I think he is usually funny in his own sort of way. Unfortunately in this film, where he plays a man AND his sister, he is not funny and the movie doesn’t work. I would, of course, watch it on Blu just to see what extras they’ve given us (hopefully more Dunkachino) and it could be one of the rare films where the deleted scenes are better than what was left in…or at least I can hope.
Like Crazy – Rated PG-13 (Anton Yelchin, Felicity Jones)
Two characters I just didn’t like in this one. They wanted to be the next 500 Days of Summer or something along that lines and instead it was just…well….there. One silly move cost them everything, so I could NEVER feel emotional about the characters.
Senna – Rated PG-13 (Ayrton Senna)
One of the best documentaries I saw in 2011. Didn’t screen during theatrical, but I caught up with it at the end of the year. Heartbreaking and emotionally charged this sports doc hits the nail on the head throughout. You don’t have to be a fan of Formula 1 racing to enjoy this, but if you are it will be that much better.
The Skin I Live In – Rated R (Antonio Banderas)
Pedro Almodovar’s new film starring Antonio Banderas as a plastic surgeon who has seen more than his share of situations. But his next creation is a skin that withstands all damage.
Also new this week…
Columbus Circle – Rated PG-13 (Selma Blair, Giovanni Ribisi)
Game of Thrones – The Complete First Season
The Lion King 1 ½ - Rated G (Nathan Lane, Matthew Broderick) – on Blu Ray combo pack, get the third installment of the classic Disney franchise.
The Lion King II: Simba’s Pride – Rated G (Matthew Broderick, Neve Campbell) – Simba and Nala’s daughter comes front and center in this tale that has her wandering off into forbidden lands.
Mercenaries– Rated R (Robert Fucilla, Billy Zane)
New York Giants: Super Bowl XLVI Champions – As a GB Packers fan, it pains me to post this one.
Recoil – Rated R (Steve Austin, Danny Trejo) - It's a Steve Austin movie -- I have to post the trailer.
Wyatt Earp’s Revenge – Rated PG-13 (Shawn Roberts, Trace Adkins)
And Finally
Tooth Fairy 2 – Rated PG (Larry the Cable Guy)
Hmmm…Ok so we go from The Rock and Julie Andrews to Larry the Cable Guy. Ummm…here’s the trailer – you decide. You know I’ll watch it – so when I do, you’ll know.
Pick of the Week
Sennais the best movie released this week. But for repeated watching Footloose will do well. And for the bad movie collection – Jack and Jill is a winner.
Thanks!
