Black Rock with Kate Bosworth Here's my rather hasty Netflix review, which pretty much says how I felt about it: What a horrible movie! It begins with some of the most maddening and inane dialog, and I immediately began to wonder what had prompted me to put this in my queue. And it only got worse -- much much worse! It was so bad that when I got back from taking it to the post office, I went through 8 pages of reviews to mark the ones with 1 and 2 stars as helpful. I usually glance at these reviews before I select a movie, but somehow didn't do so this time. Since 98% of future viewers are going to hate this movie, save yourself the wasted movie and DON'T put it in your queue. What a dismayingly awful movie, and a waste of every penny spent making it. Apparently Bosworth did this because the director (and co-star) was a friend of hers. Simply horrible. And I'm still curious what prompted me to rent it from Netflix!

Yesterday I saw the 2006 "Murderous Intent" starring Eddie Redmayne. Here's the blurb at Netflix: When Nigel (Tom Sturridge), a student at an exclusive British private school, is murdered, his classmate Alex (Eddie Redmayne) emerges as the prime suspect. Dr. Sally Rowe (Toni Collette), a forensic psychiatrist, questions Alex, probing for the truth behind the crime. As Alex's father (Patrick Malahide) presses the police to drop the case, Rowe discovers shocking secrets about both boys and their possible connection to an earlier murder. There are twists within twists, and I suspected the principal twist. I'm glad I saw it, although it took me almost 8 years to get around to doing so.

Robocop 2014 0/10 This new Robocop 'lite' has nothing on the original. Not one element that they improved upon; not in acting, not in special effects, not in camerawork and cinematography, not in casting, not in writing, not in music and licensing of music, ... the list goes on. Watching this new version, I yawned, I cringed, I looked at what time it was but mostly I remembered how good the Verhoeven was in the first place.
