Blue Moon

A movie about Hart attending the Oklahoma! after party which he did not attend, is tedious, despite a good performance by Hawke, Why make a fictional film about a talented lyricist when there is so much truth to tell?

The directing and acting are outstanding and the tense story inexorably grows more dystopian as it slowly dissolves into its climax.

...reveals the tawdry, untold story about for-profit nursing homes in Canada. This is a movie that everyone should see if they are considering going into a nursing home or committing a relative to one.

The Accountant 2

Although this could be considered damning with faint praise, given the appalling quality of today’s movies, it is one of the more entertaining films I’ve had to sit through so far this year.

With an A-list cast, even though it is almost esoterically mysterious, it is captivatingly enticing.

Bogie telling his own story in his own words, along with those of friends and co-workers, this captures his complex personality as never before seen. Whether or not you are a Bogie fan, it’s one not to be missed.

Lee
(2023)
|
Tony Medley

The method of telling the story is brilliant. An older Lee is interviewed by an unidentified younger man. She tells her story in flashbacks. When it ended, I was stunned. Not just one of the best movies of the year, it's one of the best of the Century,

Finding The Money
(2024)

Tony Medley

interesting and thought-provoking on how money works...Or is it nonsense? One of the best parts of the film is when Kelton interviews Jared Bernstein, Biden's economic czar whose mumbling, stumbling response leads to the conclusion he's way over his head

It's a terrific true story with sparkling performances by Colman, Buckley, and Spall; one of the best films of the year so far despite its sexism and offensive woke presentism casting of one part.

...convoluted and absurd...Howard is woefully miscast as a martial arts heroine as her zaftig physique (5-7, 139) makes her fighting scenes unintentionally laughable.

This bear is amazing. II you want an escape from what’s going on in the world today, don’t miss this one because it is a delight. In fact, I’m still laughing. There were several scenes that put me into convulsions.

Convoluted and annoying from the start, it's nothing but quisiquilious tarradiddle filled with graphic violence played for laughs...Lots of people are out to kill other people but they deal with each other in an oh, so friendly and joking manner; ugh!

Where the Crawdads Sing
(2022)

Tony Medley

I was on the verge of tears throughout the first half hour. As the film progressed, I just kept getting deeper. And deeper. totally immersed...a murder mystery wrapped in a thriller surrounded by romance...This is, truly, a movie for all seasons.

Burdened by lots of scenes of dubious authenticity and a ghastly slow pace, the acting is good, and it's an interesting take on someone of whom most know very little.
