    Last Christmas

    November 17, 2019 /

    by Le Anne Lindsay, Editor In my review of the “The Irishman” I admitted that I’m not the best person to review that movie as it’s just not my genre. But rom/coms, that’s something I know something about! And it’s sad when they don’t quite hit the mark; you want so badly to be charmed and yet you just can’t get there. “Last Christmas” is directed by Paul Feig (“Bridesmaids” “Spy”) and written by Bryony Kimmings and Emma Thompson, who co-wrote the story with her husband, Greg Wise. Based on the ubiquitous annual Christmas song of the same name by George Michael.  Which I think comes in #2 on most…

    Isn’t It Romantic

    February 17, 2019 /

    Natalie (Rebel Wilson) is told by her mother at a young, impressionable age to stop watching rom/coms cause life’s not a fantasy and especially not for girl’s that look like her. From that point on, Natalie’s approach to life and how people see her became pragmatic and limited. Until she’s knocked unconscious during an attempted mugging, where she wakes up and and finds herself trapped in the stereotypical romantic comedies that she came to despise. As someone who reveres a good rom/com (although, I think someone should have taken them and soap operas away from me as a kid for my mental health) I was looking forward to seeing a…

    Want Men Want – Spotlight

    February 7, 2019 /

    by Le Anne Lindsay, Editor #MiniMovieReview WHAT MEN WANT (dir Adam Shankman) – Taraji and company deliver a solid rom-com with a lot of energy and heart.  Nothing groundbreaking, but enjoyable. The wedding scene is hilarious and who knew Erykah Badu was a comedian? But mostly, I fell in love with her love interest the sweetly sexy Aldis Hodge.   T&T the Large Association of Movie Blogs (aka the LAMb) rating: 3.5 outta 5   Congrats Taraji P. Henson  on your Hollywood star! Much-deserved.
