Typical 2020 - And The Bourne Legacy

 So, I tried to edit on FB my Film and Movie list and what happens? I accidentally deleted it. All my viewed movies in 2020. Everything I've seen this year, everything I want to see in the future  - gone. Luckily I have the original list on my computer, but here in the blog, I'll just review the movies I've seen and privately cross off the ones I have seen on my own list.


So, October 2020 I saw "The Bourne Legacy." I was bored with it. I mean, just, really. I'm just bored with it. Watching a man in the snow. Watching the other side of what happened in a previous movie. No real villains. And the end, just watching a man sail away and he just doesn't wanna play anymore. I was just bored with it. The first two Bourne movies were better for me.

Wicked

 So much hype and marketing has been placed on this movie for months! And I mean MONTHS before it's release. And I finally got to see it. Granted, my husband and I saw the Broadway tour of "Wicked" years ago so I had some comparing to do. I definitely can see the theater crow singing through the whole thing. It's what we do. Cynthia Erivo did a very good and innocent job with Elphaba. She brought an innocence to the character that Idina did on Broadway. Her voice was not "over-the-top" and she hit all the familiar notes just right. Ariana Grande did well as G-linda, and later Glinda, the good. The snobbiness, the self-interest, the power-hungry - just all of it was there. The swishing of the hair was just hysterical. She played the part very well and paired well as a friend to Elphaba. Jonathan Bailey is just deliciously beautiful as Prince Fiyero. All the free fun and interest in other things that got him thrown out of his previous schools is right there. I...

The American Society of Magical Negroes

 I saw this movie and wanted more. I wanted more of the magical world. I wanted more adventure. I wanted higher stakes. I just wanted - more. A young black artist, Aren, fails to sell his yarn art. Bartender, Roger, notices this young man has a heart and invites him into the world of magic and friendship. Black people from all over the U.S. are in this magical community and they are taught to make sure white people are ok. Because if white people are ok, then black people can be ok. Aren decides to join this magical community and they get him a job. A really NICE job, next to his client: Jason. Aren needs to make sure Jason is ok. Work wise and life wise. And then there comes a woman, Lizzie. Aren met her first, and is smitten. But talking to Jason, Jason has had a crush on Lizzie for a while. Lizzie gets along better with Aren than she does Jason, but if Aren makes a move - then ALL Black people in the U.S. lose their magical powers. And if the leader, Dede, finds out about it, th...

The Fall Guy

 Wow! What a play on words! Not only is Colt Seavers, played by Ryan Gosling, a stunt man, a Fall Guy, but also in the movie he takes the blame for a murder he didn't commit! A Fall Guy! Well done! And for many movies and through his career he works with Jody, played by Emily Blunt, and they crush on each other but does anything ever happen? Is it regret for them both? Will they re-unite to save a movie? So much going on in this movie and so much action within action! The Action on the set and the action in the real world mix! And the best side kick I've seen in a long time, Dan Tucker, played by Winston Duke. He's amazing and on the side of right the entire movie! My husband is a big fan of the original "The Fall Guy" series and totally was in to the movie the entire time. He felt a lot of nostalgia with it and the movie played on all the old stuff. It's a good movie to watch if you ever saw the old series or know anything about the behind the scenes of makin...
