Charlie’s Angels
It’s been a while since I’ve seen the movie Charlie’s Angels. The last version I watched was the sequel, which I hated, so it was refreshing to see the original again.
While some parts of the movie are a bit dumb, this film, overall, isn’t too bad.
You have an all …

Waydowntown movie
I rented this film because the premise, I thought, was great: (4) employees at some drab corporate company make a wager on who can remain indoors (the entire downtown “hub” is connected by a series of enclosed walkways) for 6 months. It seems like a quirky, …

The Wedding Planner
In the DVD movie I’ve watched, The Wedding Planner, it starred the unlikely duo; Jennifer Lopez and Matthew McConaughey.

In 1953, Twentieth Century-Fox released the marvelous musical, Call Me Madam with Ethel Merman, Donald O’Connor, and Vera-Ellen. It’s high-powered, high-energy, and high-five fun.
