I finally saw Batman v. Superman. Not impressed. Wooden acting, draggy scenes between the action, really dark tones. I guess it has finally happened - I've converted to Marvel. I was a DC girl growing up, those were my favourite comics. No longer . . . *sighs*

We watched A Walk in the Woods with Robert Redford, It was OK but not as good as I expected it to be.
My Wife asked me if I knew what her favorite flower was?
Apparently "Robin Hood All Purpose" was the wrong answer!

Is it on already on Netflix? Reviews were like, "one and half stars."

"Jason Bourne". While entertaining, and likely enjoyable for those who have followed the Bourne series, this is basically ten minutes of plot crammed into a two hour chase scene.

I will always recommend Mr. Brooks, Costner as a serial killer isn't for kids.

Finally saw "Constantine" - it's been out for a while now and a friend of hubby's recommended it. It wasn't bad. It wasn't a movie I'd have paid to see in theatre, but it was an enjoyable action/supernatural thriller. Mind you, I do like Keanu Reeves.

Concussion was a good movie...makes you look at football in whole a new light..

33 was good too...it's about the Chile miners who were trapped for 69 days...

I watched a bit on either W5 or The Fifth Estate the other night about people looking at the NHL in the same way, with popular "enforcers" now exhibiting symptoms of repeated brain trauma.

(Edited because "fFfth" was too funny for the riff-raff around here. I like to save my best material for a more sophisticated audience. Like the religion forum.)
