What's the last movie you watched?

Holiday would be so nice to watch, if I did not hate Cameron Diaz so much.
Watched Dirty Dancing last night. Movie is great, but how sad that Patric died so young.

I watched Detroit a couple of days ago. It was very good. Very well acted. Based on a true story, but with artistic license applied, as with all other movies based on true stories. But, they seemed to have gotten the overall gist of the story right, but simplified it to work as a movie. They don't give you a lot of background, but the viewer can do some Google research and find that, if so inclined.

I just watched the Ballad of Lefty Brown. Bill Pullman deserves a Best Actor Oscar nomination for his work in this movie.

I don't like Westerns. But, this one wasn't your typical Western. It was much deeper. It was about honor, and decency -- and the loser getting his day. Highly recommended.

We watched Christmas with the Kranks last night. Not sure how we missed it over the years.

Tim Allen and Jamie Lee Curtis. It got horrible reviews, but it is perfect for light Holiday viewing.

This looked like a pretty good movie for DH, he LOVES westerns!

It's on YouTube or GooglePlay for $6.99

The Man From Snowy River, I wonder how many times I have typed in that title. One of our favorites.

 

[Just Cooking]

I have no idea why Jeannie and I don't watch too many movies..
That will change when I get to Missouri.. My daughter and SIL are movie buffs so, I'm pretty certain I'll be watching a lot of them..

Okay readers of this post I have a free documentary I just saw recently that is also free. It is called Ten Meter Tower and is roughly 16 minutes long.

https://www.nytimes.com/video/opinion/100000004882589/ten-meter-tower.html

The documentary simple and is just asking will the people in the documentary do one simple thing off the ten meter tower. I found it fun. It is also on the short list for the Oscars nomination.

I went to see "Star Wars: The Last Jedi" on Sunday night. I didn't disappoint. Good to see Mark Hamill reprise his Luke Skywalker role.

I just recently watched another short documentary for free which you can see here:

https://www.nytimes.com/video/opinion/100000005201010/116-cameras.html

This one is called 116 cameras and is about Eva Schloss who goes through a special project so her story can live on for years to come. This one is also on a shortlist for the oscars and I do think it can make the finals because it was so good.

This Documentary is roughly 15 minutes long.

I just got done watching "The Bishop's Wife" with Cary Grant, Loretta Young and David Niven. I enjoy watching this wonderful film every year at Christmas time. One of my favorites.

 

[dragnlaw]

I watched the Bishop's Wife many many moons ago. Has anyone also seen the Preacher's Wife? a 1996 remake with Whitney Houston, Denzel Washington & Courtney B. Vance.

I have been binge-watching schmaltzy Christmas movies at night when I can't sleep and in the day when I am working at the table sewing, writing, or just relaxing.

The titles are all similar, as are the plots and even some of the cast. The best thing about them is so many are filmed out here and I recognize buildings, streets, landmarks, etc. no matter how hard they try to hide them.

 

[PrincessFiona60]

"Going In Style" with Morgan Freeman, Micheal Caine and Alan Arkin, uproariously funny and heart tugging at times. All in, a great movie.

What happened to Monday. Little bit too violent for my taste, but keeps you on the edge.

 

[Kayelle]

Today we went to see "The Greatest Showman" and we both really enjoyed it. It felt more like a Broadway musical production rather than a film. It really needs to be seen in a theater. I'd pass on a home screen version.

Inspired by the imagination of P. T. Barnum, The Greatest Showman is an original musical that celebrates the birth of show business & tells of a visionary who rose from nothing to create a spectacle that became a worldwide sensation.

Saw Jumanji with my daughter, it was pretty funny. Far fetched in parts.
