30/May/2009No, I’m not talking about Obama’s plan for what to do with captured enemy combatants. Catch and Release is the title of a movie I watched this week. Or more correctly, tried to watch. Only made it halfway through before turning it off in disgust. Rather than being entertained, I was irratated. It started out slow, then got worse. Insipid, shallow, and dull. Which is too bad, because there were some good actors associated with this wreck of a movie. Jennifer Garner, Juliette Lewis and Kevin Smith (aka silent Bob) were wasted talent on this shell of a story. Hey, my first zero rating! I’ll give it that. Also watched a film called The Secret. This was was just plain ass weird in a disturbing kind of way. First time I had seen the whole ‘mom/wife possesses daughter’s body’ thing done as something other than comedy. I guess it had its moments and it was mildly entertaining, but when the “wife” tries to seduce the husband while in her daughter’s body, it was just a bit over the top for me. Stars David Duchovny as the would be incesterous father/husband. I’ll give it a 2 out of 5. And that’s about it from here folks. |

Thanks for the reviews, John.
No time for movies just now. You’ll see less of me (in this case, less may be more) as I pack and transport to the FL west coast. We’ve been in a horrible drought for probably two years here in FL, rationed lawn watering etc, and wouldn’t you know it. As soon as I start carrying furniture to the trucks we get a ‘resident’ low over the whole of south FL and it rains, daily, from 1 to 3 inches at a clip. at least the temps haven’t been that bad with overcast skies and maybe we’ll be able to overcome this drought condition finally.
I keep telling myself, it would be worse - like 95 in the shade, so I’ll tough it out.
Hang in there and keep the excellent blog entries coming.
