On a Wing and a Prayer (2023)
I really wanted to like this movie...
...but I couldn't. The first part of the movie was just tedious. I know it was about building up the family context, but it was tedious. There were several points where I almost gave up on the movie. The blonde daughter was very annoying. There was a point where she had to grab an epi pen out of a backpack in the cargo hold, and instead of her unfastening the webbing in the cargo hold, for what seemed like a long time we had to see her panicking as she tried to frantically reach through the webbing to feel for the backpack. All I could think was "how stupid of a daughter did this guy have?" Even my 10yo son would've tried to unhook the strapping. On the plus side, it's a family friendly movie and maybe a preteen or younger might find the movie entertaining. Most adults would probably not get past the mediocre acting and plot development.
Killing Them Softly (2012)
Make sure you're wide awake
It's mostly a movie about low life's and goomba thugs having prolonged conversations about hookers and random experiences. It's NOT an action movie-certainly a gangster movie that's the antithesis of a movie like Goodfellas. I fell asleep for about 20 minutes, woke up, and didn't miss anything.
