Man of the Year (2006)
Where were all the old people?
Don't get me wrong. I found the film funny at times, even when it was supposed to be serious.
Robin Williams was brilliant though. A talented man who is sadly missed.
Unfortunately the majority of actors reminded me of youngsters straight out of University.
Oh that's right the new young things know everything about life. Sorry , my mistake.
Christopher Walkden was probably the oldest guy made up to look cool with his dyed hair.
Maybe a couple of others nudged 40 or thereabouts.
The cutesy romance between Eleanor and Dobbs was really a bit lame.
Geoff Goldblum looked his most sinister as usual. Bad guys always look sinister remember.
Silly stuff .
My Brother Jack (2001)
Yawn
Tried to get through it but gave up after one episode. Didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Having not read the book I couldn't know if it was accurate. Hope the book was better. Rubbish film.
I Care a Lot (2020)
I liked it
I don't know why so many people are so negative about this film. I thought it was entertaining in a weird way, but then that's what made it fun to watch. Does anybody in their right mind truly think all that happened was possible? It's a movie for heavens sakes. I do believe though that many elderly people if they're not careful, are exploited by " caring" individuals, especially if they're well off. Being in my dotage, I can attest that that fact. A shout goes out to the actress who played Mala, she was brilliant.
The Devil Wears Prada (2006)
Mindless
Having heard raves about this film I got bored one night and watched it on the telly. It was so bad, I couldn't tear my eyes away from it, hoping it would improve.
Ann Hathaway must be cringing after her performance, Meryl Streep likewise. I've had worse bosses in my past, she wasn't a patch on them. What a lot of rubbish, the only saving grace was Stanley Tucci, but then again I love Stanley Tucci, he's terrific. Overall a mindless look at the fashion industry, ho hum.....
Let Me Go (2017)
Happily Eva after.
Acting and storyline were fascinating but gee,daughter missing out on mummy's love. Boo hoo. Girls, give old grandma a break. Wartime makes people do all sorts. Sure the old girl did'nt regret it, what was she supposed to do, jump in front of a speeding train? She was a bit of a nut case, I would have just left her there to rot. I thought she seemed a bit too sprightly for her supposed age. Why would the home allow her to keep the Nazi uniform in her room? Who paid for her care there? And If I was Helga and footed the bills, before I left I would have complained about it big time. I don't understand why she went to visit her for in the first place. I would have paid cousin Eva to take care of things for me.
Slow and tedious saga, could not wait for it to end.
