NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN
JAVIER BARDEM with the freaky haircut, I'm beginning to recall the reason why it was in my queue. I keep watching, but the film
is beyond good, so I look at the envelope to see who is directing this 'cuz it is
better than most films I have seen. And there it is JOEL AND ETHAN COEN, ACADEMY AWARD BEST PICTURE, etc. Need I say more?

TRANSFORMERS
Okay, so I see this film for three reasons: It was rated one of the best films of the year on some internet site, a friend
told me it was pretty good, and JOSH DUHAMEL of LAS VEGAS fame is in it. Well, I don't know if it was one of the best films of the year.

THE EXORCISM OF EMILY ROSE
Well, I was quite surprised by this film. I am a HORROR movie buff and this film was recommended to me during HALLOWEEN. I
didn't watch it. I remember it looked interesting when it came out, because who doesn't love an EXORCISM movie, but I still
didn't see it. It took LAURA LINNEY to actually get me to see this. She is a wonderful actress and in this film she really
gets to show us her acting chops. Her intelligence is dazzling.

WE OWN THE NIGHT
Well, I had a gig a few months ago and I had to do a little thing with one of the most beautiful men I have ever seen. We had
a moment, if you know what I mean, perhaps a few. Anyway, the gorgeous man, whom I will probably never see again, is a cop. So,
I decided to check out some cop movies and such to help ease the pain of the end of our brief encounter.

PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: AT WORLD'S END - DVD REVIEW
My one complaint about this film is that I did not see it on the big screen. My instincts told me to, but, I sadly, ignored
them. Lesson learned. The special effects are amazing! Considering the story is based on a ride at DISNEYLAND, it is
pretty interesting and slightly corny in only a way PIRATES can be corny. Who doesn't love PIRATES?

Factory Girl
I think this movie is worth seeing for three reasons and three reasons only. 1. The story is interesting.
2. SIENNA MILLER does a great job at playing a drug addict. 3. GUY PEARCE is super creepy as ANDY WARHOL
(it's like watching a horror film). The rest is pretty lame.

Miss Potter
Well, this is not one of the best films ever, but it is one of the best films of 2007. I really think
it should be seen by all. I, of course, knew of Beatrix Potter and, of course, knew about Peter Rabbit, and
that's 'bout it. I did not know what an amazing woman she was and how she was quite an artist, visionary and
conservationist.

The Village
Well, I just loved this film. It is creepy, thought-provoking, visually stunning and well acted. WILLIAM HURT is
just marvelous!! I haven't seen him in a film for a quite awhile. He has such a great voice. Good to see
SIGOURNEY WEAVER as always!

American Dreamz
This film pleasantly surprised me. I had heard nothing about it. I started watching it and found that it was pretty
twisted. Basically, it is a satire on the whole AMERICAN IDOL thing, which I have never seen. It is also poking fun
of the whole world, especially, Americans and human nature. I thought HUGH GRANT gave a witty and quite truthful
performance. MANDY MOORE was perfectly cast and JENNIFER COOLIDGE was wonderful, as per usual.

The CHOKE
SEAN COOK said this was all
improvised. He is really funny. Now I know you are thinking that I have a crush on him or that we had something
going on, but no. Ours is a relationship based purely on respect and admiration.
Amazing, but true. Well, I must go....I will be viewing
Marin Real Estate this week and need to get packing.

JERSEY GIRL
But no, a terrible movie was made. BEN AFFLECK , who I normally really like, was
just bad. The script was pretty pathetic and even if MERYL STREEP or ANTHONY HOPKINS were in this it
would suck. However, MERYL and ANTHONY would not have appeared in this film, so, there you have it. What
is GEORGE CARLIN doing in this film? JLO was so bad it was hard to watch. LIV TYLER was as bland
as a piece of dry bread from the food bank.

CASINO ROYALE
I am a fan of JAMES BOND films. SEAN CONNERY is my fave of all, of course. I like PIERCE BRONSON and TIMOTHY DALTON, though most people I talk to think I am an idiot. ROGER MOORE has got that 70's swinger vibe. But not
one of them looks better coming out of the ocean in bathing trunks than MR. CRAIG.

I'VE HEARD THE MERMAIDS SINGING
Well, my mother loves CANADA, so, when I was reading in the book that I HEARD THE MERMAIDS SINGING was one of the best films directed by a woman and that it was CANADIAN, I made the decision to check it out. Boy, or should
I say Girl? Am I glad I did? The script is good and a bit unusual. The acting is wonderful.

THE DEPARTED
So, what do you get when you put Jack Nicholson, Leonardo DiCaprio, Matt Damon, Mark Wahlberg, and Alec Baldwin in a movie directed by Martin Scorsese?? A fab, delicious, bloody, thrilling macho extravaganza!! I loved every minute of it. I loved it a second time. And I have to say
that in all of 2006 it was the only movie I found worthy of watching twice.
