Drama

This film should win an award for educational breakthroughs in the paranormal, as it brings to fact visitation of departed loved ones, which unfortunately they called in the movie "ghosts." The film starts off saying, "Every family has a ghost."

The truth is, that for whatever reason, sometimes God does allow departed loved ones to revisit their family members. Not often, but sometimes. They are not ghosts. A "ghost" would be a fallen midwayer who pretends to ...

The Free State of Jones

Reviewed on Jul 14 2016

From time to time, I do review films that are still in the theaters, because people either should see them or avoid them. I review the best of those in the theaters, that absolutely should be seen, which is the case in this film, and the worst, that use sophisticated marketing and lies to make the film something more than it is,.

Since racism is in the air of America and there are continued killings of young black men, and even the abuse of young black women, I thought I ...

Frequency

Reviewed on Aug 04 2008

Frequency holds your attention from the very beginning to the end with excitement and challenges to your belief system.  The theme of time travel is made real, real enough that I believe millions of Americans are going to be educated as to the possibility of not only transcending some of the boundaries of time, but also become more open to the possibilities of: repersonalization (an existing soul's transference into a fetus in a technical manner), rematerialization ...

The Gladiator

Reviewed on Jul 24 2008

For those of us warriors of true justice and others who have lived past lives in the era of the gladiator and watched this film, I'm sure it brought back many emotional feelings and much pain.  While I don't think the details were based on much fact, I'm sure that in general the plot of the story has happened over and over again, century after century.  In this film, The Gladiator, there's a good guy who's a true warrior leader; he has honor...

Julianne Moore and Bette Midler played, as usual, excellent parts in the movie The Glorias.

The Good Lie

Reviewed on Jan 22 2015

This movie—that deals with the refugees from Sudan (called The Lost Boys)—shows the courage, tenacity, and fortitude that these refugees had to come out, on the other side, wonderful and kind human beings—which is evident in their personalities in the film (in which they play themselves). Many of them lost mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, and were tortured, yet still showed no bitterness. These men, who came to the United States, taught Reese Witherspoon (who plays a social servant)...

Good Time

Reviewed on Mar 15 2018

This film should have been up for an Academy Award for Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor. It wouldn't have been nominated for Best Picture because of its theme, but wow was this a great film. The people on the streets in the neighborhood seemed very real, and you could hardly tell if they were actors or real street people. It reminded me of my old neighborhood of uptown 5th Avenue in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. You would meet characters like the two brothers and all the others in the film. ...
