          • Beauty and the Beast


            It felt like I was watching the Broadway musical. Not that it's a bad thing, the movie is good on it's own, but compared to the animated film, it has things to be desired.

            • The Irish Pub (2013)

              "The Irish pub is a place where you can talk without any interruption except by everyone."

              Seemed an appropriate movie for today and I really liked it. It's just a documentary interviewing owners and customers of several traditional-style (Victorian) pubs in Ireland with their histories and personal stories. I recommend it for anyone who likes Irish storytelling, history, or is a pub goer (I don't mean bar hopper).

                Yes, because that worked out so well for the Invisible Man.

                • The Legend of Tarzan (2016)

                  "Your husband's wildness disturbs me more than I can easily express."

                  Meh. They did some neat things (like Tarzan's knuckles and jumping on the train) that they couldn't have done in the old movies, but the characters (imho) act anachronistically and the story was only so so.

                  Yeah, that was pretty funny. Practically speaking, I could imagine an invisible person achieving a minor, temporary coup, but a whole country (let alone many countries) would eventually track them down and nuke their location if they had to.



                  Anyway, I know Supergirl has a lot of weaknesses, but I still found it fun. Dunaway is like the female equivalent of a mustache-twirling villain. And the plot is very comic booky.



                  The only thing that bothered me this time (that I obviously missed as a kid) was that there's not one, but two instances of working, independent guys of college age or older professing their undying love to prep school girls. And nobody even hints that there is an age barrier. In fact Jimmy pervs on Lois' sister so bad that at one point when she returns his interest he starts to say "you mean we could have ... for years?" He doesn't fill in the blank, but it sure seems like he's saying he's wanted to boink her since she was twelve. Creepy.

                    I don't think I can ever watch this movie again. It is the end of everything, and I damn near started emoting very hard.

                                This wasn't great, but I liked it more than I expected to based on the ratings.
