Pig (2021)
Disappointing
Losing a pet, or in this case a pig, can be like losing a family member. I get that. We pet owners can all understand the anguish of losing a beloved pet.
Sadly, this film is not about getting the pig back. It's a movie about uncovering details about the main character (Cage). The problem is - I don't care about the main character, I care only about the pig and pig's well-being. There is nothing in the film that makes me care about Cage's character.
When told by the main antagonist that the pig had died during the pignapping, Cage doesn't even bother to question the truthfulness of the statement. The audience certainly doesn't trust the guy. We want Cage to continue looking for the pig, keeping hope alive. But nope, nothing. The pig is gone and the movie just ends. It's very odd, strange, sad, and disappointing all at once. Cage's character even gave up $25,000 for nothing. I do not recommend wasting 90 minutes on this film.
1.5 out of 5 stars.
Coin Heist (2017)
Worst (sorry, dumbest) film of the year....
Let's see, here we go. A small, diverse group of kids risks going to federal prison for 20 years to save their school that they won't even be attending next year. Bravo!
After getting busted by their teacher, who is determined to call the cops, and rightfully so, they eventually talk to the superintendent who inexplicably strikes a deal with these misfits without even batting an eye. Now he's going to prison too since he is helping to cover up and profit from the illegal activity. Oh, and the teacher who didn't call the cops is now an accessory to the felony crime as well. Smooth move, everyone. You really think they won't find you? You left fingerprints literally everywhere. Security guards saw your faces as you entered the garage.
How did the guards not hear or see you making and cleaning and polishing 10 batches of coins! That's 20000 coins!! How long does that take, btw? Maybe a couple hours? Nah, these guys did it in a few minutes, total round trip from school and back in under 1 hour. Bravo, again!
Good luck selling your stolen coins, BTW. You'll have federal agents all over you like flies on stink.
Okay, I'll stop. I've said my two cents!! Haha, see what I did there?
Babysitters Beware (2009)
Annoyingly bad.
I'm writing this as a parent so take my quick review with a grain of salt. The boy misbehaves and is very, very disobedient with almost zero consequences. Even my kids were saying "ohhh, he's gonna be in trouble" but he never got in trouble. His bad behavior is brushed aside to move the plot along. I was so frustrated by this movie I wanted the kid to be beaten with a 6' long baseball bat, but instead they reward him with a trip to a baseball game. Great way to teach kids there are no consequences for your bad choices.
Need for Speed (2014)
So many questions...
1) 5k is a lot of money to the "good guys" and they just earned 675k! They get their shop back from the bank but Mr. Good Guy's pride is wounded from such a stupid comment so much that he risks it all. Wouldn't his friends disown him? Why do such a stupid thing. For a smart person, accepting that racing challenge was downright stupid.
2) Speaking of the race, are you telling me ZERO witnesses spotted the red Konigsegg?? Please. Dumb.
3) What did Mr. Good Guy win in the end? He won all the other cars, which are now destroyed and worthless, or at best impounded. He basically won nothing. And worse yet, he went to jail for it. And worse than that, he destroyed a 3mil Shelby Mustang just for good measure. Well done!
4) Why did the hummer driver think it better to smash into a wall than smash into the car he was trying to stop?
5) Are you telling me Mr Good Guy had time to tame the dog and take its chain and wrap it around the cop car axles? Why not pop the hood and pull some wires instead? Or knife his tires. Silly.
6) Hey Police, ever heard of spike strips???!?! I'm done. It's just not worth it.
Flip or Flop: Vandalized Foreclosure (2013)
Can someone explain this....
How did they get homeowners insurance to cover the cost of the vandalism if the vandalism occurred before the home was purchased/insured? Thanks for any help.
Middle School: The Worst Years of My Life (2016)
Help me...
Not a great movie. Maybe if you're a pre-teen, but not for adults. BTW, thanks for instilling in my children that it's okay to be disrespectful and rebellious toward authority figures, basically with no consequences. And please tell me why Rafe put the lighter to the sprinkler system immediately without letting the principal respond to his request. Oh that's right because it made for a colorful silly dance scene, to heck with common sense! Skip this one.... watch the Diary movies again, instead.
Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Long Haul (2017)
Not bad...
My kids and I enjoyed the first 3 movies. They have read all the books as well. I read the online reviews, and then I read the Long Haul book just to prepare myself. I did not like it at all!!! One depressing scene after another. I was horrified going into this movie, but I was shocked to find out it was pretty good, and much more enjoyable to me than the book even. I was pleasantly surprised. Worth a watch if you like the first 3. Go in with an open mind.
God's Not Dead 2 (2016)
Better than the first movie
I am surprised how much I enjoyed this movie compared to the first. I liked the first one to a certain extent, but it had issues as most can agree upon. One such issue was that it portrayed all (not some) unbelievers as cruel and hate filled people, which we all know is not reality. Not even close. Most of us know atheists who are moral, respectable, caring, and respectful citizens. The second installment cleaned this up a bit, though not completely. It was nice to see an atheist, who represented the school teacher, portrayed as a decent human being for a change.
The acting compared to many Christian films I have seen was above average. Lots of pleasant visuals and spirit filled music added to the film. Great for the whole family. I highly recommend it.
