Just watch Law Abiding Citizen. It was better than I thought it would be. I gave it 3 starts on Netflix.
Bronson was entertaining and if I could give half stars it would have been a 3.5. |

I also saw Manderlay, which was the follow up to Dogville. Very similar to Dogville (with a different lead actress), but I didn't think it was as good.

Okay, make fun of the chick again, but I liked Post Grad. Chick flick. I may have already posted it, but I can't remember.
Getting ready to watch Adam. Looks like another chick flick, and it might be a tear jerker. We'll see. |

I LOVED Adam. It's a romance story including a guy with Asperger Syndrome. A very realistic portrayal, and not a happily ever type of story.

I read the book. It was a very good book (one that I never would have picked up on my own, but somebody gave it to me as a gift), but **** COULD IT HAVE BEEN ANY MORE DEPRESSING??????
I think I'd slit my wrists if I had to relive that story again. |

Watched DeNiro's most recent: Everybody's Fine. Here he was exceptional. Movies can strike a heavy chord with us when they reach familiar territory, and here was my situation.

Sad story but the movie was really good. I hear the movie is very close to the book.

The movie follows the book fairly close. However it didn't spend as much time as I would have liked developing the close friendship between Amir and Hassan. Or Amir's self perceived inability to live up to his fathers standards.
