Saw two more movies this weekend. Reuben and I saw “Before the Devil Knows You’re Dead”. Great cast and acting (Ethan Hawke, Albert Finney, Phillip Seymour Hoffman, and Marissa Tomei), but the story is just not entertaining. This movie is HEAVY in one word. It’s depressing and uninspiring with no uplifting angle whatsoever. Don’t get me wrong – it’s a good movie in terms of art and production value. It’s just not something I can recommend in terms of entertainment. I say skip it – you might not blow your brains out. Unless of course you’re too happy and need to be brought down – then by all means, go see it – YOU need to see it! I give it a 7 out of 10.
“First Sunday” is a comedy so again, you have to like the silly comedy genre to enjoy this but I recommend it! Berto and I both liked it a lot. Kat Williams is hilarious in this movie. It stars Ice Cube, Tracy Morgan, Kat Williams and is slightly similar to the Madea type movies. So if you like those kind of movies, you’ll love this one, too. I did! I give it an 8.5 out of 10.
Above is a recap of my ratings for movies currently out - some I did not review (they don't warrant it), but I did rate them in the chart above since I saw em! :-)
