Must Love Dogs: Not this dog. It needs a bath. Ever seen a romantic comedy? Then you've seen Must Love Dogs.
The Weatherman: Feeling a little blue? Life got you down? Having a tough time at work? Things not going well with the family? Then watch this movie. Then you'll really want to blow your brains out. What a depressing film. You keep expecting things to turn around for poor Nicholas Cage. Let me ruin the ending for you. They never do turn around. His life sucks even worse at the end of the movie. I can take a dark film, but this film wallows in its own crapulence. And Hollywood wonders why box office receipts are down.
Standing In The Shadows Of Motown: Do you like Motown? Heck, do you like music? I saw this film some time ago, but recently saw it again. It is better the second time around. It is a documentary on The Funk Brothers, the studio musicians who played on virtually every hit Motown ever had. It also features concert footage of the remaining Funk Brothers backing various contemporary singers on some great Motown hits. Wow. That Joan Osborne can sing. And those Funk Brothers? The name says it all. Thumbs way up.
