Superheroes Movies

Posted by Christine on March 26, 2009

Comic books are the movies of the time. There are so many comic characters and superheroes now being made into Hollywood fares. Not that I mind actually. In fact, I rather enjoy them.

I wonder what it says about us as a society. Are we in need of heroes? Are we hoping someone will fly in and save the day? I think in some ways we are that and more. We want to believe in Good again. We want to believe there are those out there all about helping others and doing the “right thing.”

The last couple I’ve seen are The Incredible Hulk and Hancock.  Both Edward Norton and Will Smith are enjoyable any day of the week, so I most certainly enjoyed both movies.

I’ve been posting small, quick reviews on the ciao site.

Here’s my list so far:

And since I am snowed in today up here in Colorado -I believe the correct term is White Out, my first- it’s probably going to be a movie day (and hot chocolate). Ha, ha.  :-)

Movie Reviews

Posted by Christine on January 20, 2009

I write reviews of movies and books every once in a while.

I found a new site with all kinds of consumer reviews for just about everything and anything one might use through the course of our daily lives, and, they just so happen to have a movie section.

So, I am moving my reviews one at a time over.

I’ve got a couple over so far:

American Splendor with Paul Giamatti, and Flight Plan with Jodie Foster.

Check them out through this link:
