A TOXIC LOVE STORY – the title says it all! Hideous true story of hideous people. Unless you’re into this stuff, skip it! Boyfriends/Girlfriends – 0.

SECRETS OF THE BEES – Extraordinary National Geographic documentary on these fascinating garden friends. The footage is amazing as we go up close and personal, almost becoming part of the hive. I always wonder how photographers are able to capture video like this. I learned a lot. Did you know there are 20,000 different speciesContinue reading
PROJECT HAIL MARY – We all liked it. I didn’t expect to because I’m generally not a fan of science fiction, but I liked The Martian film and both movies were based on books written by the same author. It could have become a heavy drama, but the story was lightened by lots of humorContinue reading
LIFE, LARRY AND THE PURSUIT OF UNHAPPINESS (An Almost History of America) – Mike and I are in complete agreement: Larry David’s latest comedy show on HBOMax is typical and annoying….just like Larry. But it’s not funny. He does get good guest stars though…especially Rob Reiner in his final role. Skip it! Cheers! Boyfriends –Continue reading
SHIPWRECKED NIGHTMARE AT SEA – Harrowing account from actual survivors of the Costa Concordia cruise ship that sank after striking a huge boulder and running aground off the coast of Giglio Island in Italy. It’s an intense documentary with actual footage and worth viewing. Cheers! Boyfriends/Girlfriends – 0.
THE BLACK PHONE 2 – Repeat of The Black Phone 1, but better. Acting is decent. A few scares! (John was terrified, but he scares easy). I liked the final phone call…very emotional. Cheers! Boyfriends/Girlfriends – 0.
FACKHAM HALL – Silly, campy British murder mystery comedy along the lines of Naked Gun and Airplane. It was delightful to watch Damian Lewis in a departure from his usual intense dramatic roles. The film is great fun. I laughed a lot! Cheers!! Boyfriends – 1; Girlfriends – 0.
BABY REINDEER – Exceedingly disturbing true story of abuse and stalking suffered by one man, Richard Gadd, who wrote and stars in this piece as himself! And even more gut wrenching than the behavior of the abuser and stalker (two separate people), is Gadd’s reaction to it (which sometimes is no reaction at all). HisContinue reading
MALCOLM IN THE MIDDLE: LIFE’S STILL UNFAIR – I was a fan of the original Malcolm back in the day. I wasn’t expecting a repeat of the quality before, but I certainly wasn’t expecting a waste of time which it is now. Stupid and disappointing. Not worth viewing for an occasional laugh. Skip it! Boyfriends/GirlfriendsContinue reading
DARK SHADOWS AND BEYOND – THE JONATHAN FRID STORY – I readily admit it! I was one of those kids who rushed home from school to watch Dark Shadows at 4 p.m. every weekday in the late 60s. So was my sister and most of my friends! I adored the show. The supernatural stories, theContinue reading
