Shrek 2 (2004)
Fiona should go on Swan
This movie isn't as touching as the first. And am I wrong, that Puss should have been cut out of the middle part of the movie?
But here is the part I found very refreshing: With all the garbage on American television concerning makeovers and specifically like the show "Swan", isn't it nice to see a message to the kids that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Or that we should not worry about physical flaws when peoples true beauty is shown in their soul and personality.
So for all the little failings of Shrek 2 verses the first Shrek, I will endorse it whole-heartedly for its moral message.
(Also, here's another beef with the story line: after Shrek belly flopped onto the little white puff dog at the end celebration...why did they show the dog again on the stage? That is so un-Shrek worthy. They should have shown the dog just plastered into the mud with people dancing on it.)
The Sunshine Boys (1996)
Got to love the woodster.
A delightful view into the lives of legends lost. It has heart and soul. Besides the lines being hilarious, it is funny just to look at Allen and Falk together.
If you enjoy woody's acting and simon's writing then definitely check this one out.
A Simple Plan (1998)
Good to a point.
Enjoyed the plot up to the point when they met the FBI agent. Why would the kidnapper take all the risk of dealing with police just for the chance that the police had some information. The story really had me into it until that sequence. Then it seemed fabricated.
Strong movie overall.
