Pot of Gold
Reviewed by Targann47 for Leap Year at 2011-02-09 16:07:46
A sweet little romantic comedy set against the beauty of Ireland. Addams is lovable as ever and manages to balance comedy and drama very well.

A Delicious Treat of a Movie
Reviewed by criddic2 for Julie & Julia at 2009-08-24 01:21:56
Meryl Streep is just a joy as Julia Child, in one of her most graceful performances. Amy Adams is solid as Julie Powell, who decides to write a blog about cooking every recipe in Child's cookbook. Eat something before you enter the theater, or you'll be hungrier afterwards. The dishes shown might make even the VideoHound drool.

Julia is rolling over in her grave
Reviewed by GoldenBuddy for Julie & Julia at 2009-08-17 21:10:57
Nothing like taking one of America's gems and turning her into a cartoon character. I know we laughed when Dan Akroyd poked fun of Julia on SNL - but this woman was more than that. The story idea of paralleling two women seemed brilliant but then the dialogue and the directing just succumbed to banality. And then there was Meryl Streep -- professional movie reviewers loved her performance. I didn't. I was so offended by her portrayal plus the lack of meat in the story. This is no way to remember Julia Child -- this movie is an injustice to a brilliant mind and a wonderful woman. Nora Efron should be ashamed that she is profiting off of this woman's life.

Brilliantly acted and deeply moving
Reviewed by x495 for Doubt at 2009-08-15 15:52:02
Doubt is this year's most well-acted drama. The plot revolves around a small Catholic school in the city where a seemingly friendly priest named Father Flynn is accused of molesting a young African-American boy. Sister Aloysius (Meryl Streep) is on his case immediately while Sister James, (Amy Adams) another nun sides with the priest. The verdict is decided by the audience. All three actors deliver what they're best at: top notch acting. Also with an engaging, fascinating plot Doubt deserved its Oscar nominees one hundred percent

a real head-scratcher
Reviewed by LongLivetheD for Pumpkin at 2008-06-11 17:00:20
This is one of those movies where you sepend the whole running time trying to decide whether to baiol or stick with it...and if you stick it out, you spend at least an hour afterwards trying to decide if you even liked it. The characters are, for the most part, two-dimensional and unlikeable, and there's about five places where the plot zigs when yo think it's gonna zag. I can't dismiss it completely, but at the same time, I'm finding it difficult to recommend it.
