A Tangled Yarn of Thoughts Being Unravelled…
TO and I started 2020's fun segment off with a mother&son movie date. That nachos and cheese popcorn were a part of it goes without saying. And that the dust from the nachos and the cheese from the popcorn don't go without a hard scrubbing; goes without saying also. Now, onto the movie! A lone... Continue Reading →
Disney's latest offering is a testimony to parents' love for their children. A) They buy the movie tickets and then spend a bomb on snacks the kids didn't need to eat and B) They sit through the entire movie while a small voice in their minds keep going, " Gag me with a spoon!" The... Continue Reading →
There's a different kind of fun to be able to see a movie as a 'phust day phust sow'...but when the movie ends up spanning the realm of moderately entertaining to 'how high were they when they wrote the damn script', you know you'd have been fine watching it after a few weeks or not...

Kangana Ranaut has been in the news for so many things in the recent past that any movie of hers is newsworthy mainly because of the gossip around the actor. Although, IMHO, she's become typecast for her neuroses in the earlier movies; she still manages to deliver a believable performance as person who is psychotic... Continue Reading →
When is a horror movie not like a horror movie? When it fails to scare, that's when. While the closing credits are scrolling on the screen, the only question that comes to mind is "Why the heck did Annabelle come home if she wasn't going to cause out and out mayhem and carnage?" Picking up... Continue Reading →
My son and I have no-holds barred conversations. These conversations often leave me with a gormless look on my face and at other times it's a toss-up between laughter, crying and looking for a place to bang my head against. Ever since TO and a bunch of little friends sneaked a peek at some horror... Continue Reading →
If I was to purely think in kiddy terms then this movie is amazeballs! I have two constant movie partners- one for grown up movies and one for the kiddy (quasi) stuff. This movie falls more into the latter but since there's still at kid inside us who clamors for popcorn at the movies (... Continue Reading →
There are few things people won't do for the sake of their children. Sitting through this movie falls in that category because this is a film that shouldn't have been made, IMHO. It's hackneyed and the special effects not quite so special barring in a few instances and the power of good over evil is... Continue Reading →
Remakes don't always work. Not merely because the audience was expecting something and got something else but because the original might have captured the entire essence of the movie the first time around and not left much for the remake to work with. In my eyes, David Suchet is the perfect Poirot much like Jeremy... Continue Reading →
Yet another post that wanted to be heard... I was watching the Godfather last night (cue the music in the background) and thought it was way past the time I did my list of snapworthy movie dialogues. I almost didn't make a list because The Purple Titan caused the snap that was heard around the... Continue Reading →
