anybody know anything about the movie "grudge match" with sly.

 

[snickerd3]

i've seen the previews on tv...

 

[NJmike PE]

kinda looks like it may be amusing. Mrs. NJ wants to see it, but she is notorious for picking bad movies.

Some of the one-liners from the previews are pretty funny.

"You're going to be feisty when you hit puberty..."

 

[NJmike PE]

That's why I'm torn. Normally she is horrible at picking movies, but this one has potential. I guess even a broken clock is still right twice a day.

I have been fully assimilated into fatherhood/ second childhood. I don't even think about "grown up" movies anymore, since I pretty much don't get to see them. The movies I am most "excited" about are the new Muppet movie (Kermit's evil twin) and The Lego Movie.

Nothing Left to Fear - Horrible, just horrible. Anne Heche must have been desperate for money, as this unscary horror movie is a total waste of whatever small amount of talent she has.

The Purge - Pretty disappointing. I wanted to bizzitch slap everyone in this family for just ambling about a dark house while dangerous armed folks roamed about. This film also seemed like a message to people who are what radical left wingers thing radical right wingers are like. i doubt such folks exist. The whole movie we just kept saying, 'This is a stupid premise."

Movie 43. An interesting hour and a half of outlandish short stories. Some pretty funny moments in it, plus some nekkidness. Spectacularly meh. 3 out of 5 stars.

just got back from Frozen. cute movie.,...but why does disney have to kill one or both parents off in their movies!!!!

 

[NJmike PE]

^^^^^ my wife took our daughter to see that on Saturday. It was her first movie. Good to know that she can now sit through a movie.

this was minisnicks 3rd theater movie, but we have gone to lots of drive in movies with him.

although this was first he made it through without a potty break.

we went to see Frozen yesterday also, I wasnt expecting much but it was pretty good (for a kids flick)

 

[NJmike PE]

^^^^ I was told by Mrs. NJ that it was very good.

 

[snickerd3]

lots of similar themes from other disney movies though. I saw parts of sleeping beauty, beauty&the beast, the little mermaid mixed into the plot.

 

[NJmike PE]

then that is probably why my daughter loved it. Those three that you just named are her favorites right now

 

[DVINNY]

Lawless was pretty good. The real life story is pretty intriguing...

AGREE. Just watched it on Showtime this week. Really liked it.

 

[Capt Worley PE]

The Way Way Back - Pretty good movie, sorta Meatballs-ish, in a way. Steve Carrell can play a pretty good asshat.

As Cool as I Am - Decent enough teen coming to grips with family issues type movie.

The To Do List - Why dafu would you make a teen exploitation movie without nudity?

Oh, c'mon! Every Disney film I've ever seen, the parents are either clueless or dead meat. Seeing a parent in a Disney film is like when a military guy's wife and kid show up in other films...you know they aren't long for the world.

That wasn't a spolier like capt said...i didn't say which scenario this movie folows. if there are kids involved in the story one or both parents are dead or die.

little mermaid - single dad

finding nemo - mom dies-

cinderella- single dad to orhpan

bambi - mom dies

aladdin - single dad (for princess) no parents (aladdin)

the list goes on
