"Closer" – Overall a good movie, but very, very heavy. NOT a happy film. Natalie Portman and Jude Law rocked. Not for everyone but definitely worth seeing for serious film buffs…
"Kinsey" – Outstanding film. Not for people who have a problem with graphic portrayals of nudity and sex. Liam Neeson deserves nominations for his role. Peter Saarsgard gives a great performance and as an added bonus we get to see him naked ;) A must see before awards season starts up…
"Spanglish" – Better than I expected, but not what I expected. This film was totally marketed as a comedy and it’s not. Cloris Leachman rocked. Her part is small but she owned her scenes. Adam Sandler was ok but inconsistent. His performance was the weakest in the film. The rest of the cast was pretty good…
"Being Julia" – Based on a Somerset Maugham story. Well written. Good cast. Interesting twists and turns to the plot. A little slow in the middle. It’s a period piece so not for everyone. “Being Julia,” “Stage Beauty,” and “Finding Neverland” would be a good trifecta for theatre buffs. Smart movie. I liked it a lot…
