10 Things You Like Doing On Vacation
Posted in 10 on Tuesday on March 24, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
I love love love going on vacation!! For me, vacation requires going somewhere. Vacation is not lying around my house, or worse, doing housework!! NOOOOO – that’s called chores. Chores is NOT synonymous with vacation. It is the antithesis of vacation! 1. Road trip – vacation means going away from home. Even if it’s just [...]

Here’s my entry into the I Heart Faces Kids Contest this week. This was taken up at Lake Tahoe last summer. I must have taken hundreds of photos – the water and sky are so blue, the trees so green. It’s nearly impossible to take a bad picture! This picture gave me the opportunity to [...]
Duplicity

Duplicity Opened March 20, 2009 | Runtime:2 hr. 5 min.PG-13: language and some sexual content Duplicity was better than I expected. Though if you watch enough movies in this genre, you can see the twists and turns coming a mile away. Clive Owen is appropriately charming, debonair and British. Julia Roberts is… well… Julia Roberts. [...]

Confessions of a Shopaholic Opened February 13, 2009 | Runtime:1 hr. 52 min.PG: some mild language and thematic elements I’ll admit up-front, I have a total girl-crush on Isla Fisher. So I was going to like this movie no matter what. Even if it didn’t quite capture the charm of the books… or make any [...]

Race to Witch Mountain Opened March 13, 2009 | Runtime:1 hr. 39 min. PG: sequences of action and violence, frightening and dangerous situations, and some thematic elements Standard Disney fare here. The Rock is increasingly likeable in this family friendly genre. He proves to have smart comedic timing and an endearing charm that comes off [...]

I Love You, Man Opened March 20, 2009 | Runtime:1 hr. 50 min. R: pervasive language, including crude and sexual references And so we welcome the dawning of a new age: The Bromance. And I say, it’s about time. This was quite possibly THE FUNNIEST movie I have seen in years not featuring full frontal [...]
Gran Torino
Posted in Cinemarific on March 21, 2009 | 1 Comment »
Gran Torino Opened December 12, 2008 | Runtime:1 hr. 56 min. Rated R: language throughout, and some violence Dirty Harry has gotten old, and he’s not happy about it. Or the political correctness of the world. Political correctness is for pussies! Warning: This ain’t your grandpa’s Grumpy Old Men! If you’re easily offended, then a) [...]
