Critics Corner!

Yesterday my attendant Sherri called in sick. So my friend Trista came over and we watched a few movies together.




First up The Departed! All I can really say about this movies is Awesome!!! It keeps you on the edge of your seat through the whole thing, with some twists and turns at the end you never saw coming! Definitely Oscar Worthy! A must see in my humble opinion!!






Next up was Babel, This one I must admit was very intriguing to me! Without giving to much away for those of you who haven't yet had the opportunity to see it, this movie centers around how one simple act can change and or affect the lives of four different families in four different countries! It was very eye opening! Might not be for everyone, but if you like movies that send a message and make you think and can provoke a discussion when it's over? This might be one to check out!




Trista and I ended the evening by receiving an invitation from some friends to go to the movies to see Wild Hogs! Now if you are just looking to get away from it all and forget all your troubles, aches and pains and just laugh until you are ready to pee your pants this movies for you! Great!!!!

I don't know if it was the order we watched the but if did feel good to see a gut bustng comedy by the end of the night. What a lovely night! Thank you for sharing you evening with me!

Because of your great day and your review I ordered Babel and Departed. We just joined Netflix because I am so tired of nothing good being on TV. I sure hope it works. We went to see Breech today. It was good. A few good laughs in a serious movie. Hope you are feeling better Cheri

Cheri didn't anyone tell you that you should not be bogieing in you wheel chair? Keep working at it girl it will come around.

Well we watched Departed. Very few words were said that were not the big four letter word. It could have been a good movie except for that. Jack looked like a wild man in it.

Helen,

Sorry about the langue? I should have warned you about that.
