Isanghan byeonhosa Woo Young-woo (2022)
Adore this show
Totally captivated by this wonderful show! The lead, Park Eun-bin, is pitch-perfect. You will fall in love with the entire cast as every single actor is worthy of their own stories. I've never had the opportunity to visit South Korea, although I did live in Okinawa for several years. I am enjoying this look into South Korean life with it's marvelous scenery. I'm hoping whoever is responsible for this show is writing more episodes right now!!!
Reacher (2022)
Entertaining - minor glitches
I have never read a Reacher book so this is all new to me. It is entertaining. Filmed in Ontario so when military people see the scene where Reacher's parents - living in Okinawa - are told their son has caused problems with a general's son, they are going to howl. I wish I had had a house like that in Okinawa. Reacher's family would have most likely been living in a quonset hut. My favorite character, hands down, is Reacher's assistant Neagley. But he doesn't know he has her private cell number????
The Power of the Dog (2021)
Fascinating study & superb acting
This movie is definitely as one other reviewer calls it a "slow burn" and it slow burned it's way into my head. The clues to the characters' back story are there. Subtly placed. It's what makes this film so fascinating. Cumberbatch is at the top of his game with his portrayal of Phil, the damaged rough/tough cowboy. Phil's pain is palpable and the scene of his lying in the meadow with his secret silk scarf is an unforgettable piece of film. Beautiful cinema.
Emily in Paris (2020)
The best reason to watch? Ashley Park
Please, if you don't watch this show, please please please watch it for Ashley Park. Her voice is divine. I adore her singing and for me, she is the star of the show.
The Lost Daughter (2021)
Waste of great talent
I wanted to like this movie. It was impossible to have any empathy or sympathy for these characters. There is never insight into what made Leda the self absorbed person she is and I had no desire to get to know her. Late in the movie, Leda says she is a selfish woman. Yes. Yes she is. Kudos to Jessie Buckley for capturing Olivia Colman.
The Lone Ranger (2013)
Loved this movie
My husband and I just saw "The Lone Ranger" and we absolutely loved it. This is great summer escapist entertainment. Beautifully filmed, gorgeous locations, terrific music, excellent cast. A couple of plot points could have been eliminated, but there was a really good story here with a nice little twist. I see a lot of movies, my husband - hardly any. He's very selective about the movies he'll see in a theater. I'd shared with him the reviews on "The Lone Ranger" and then he sat through previews for upcoming films like "Thor: The Dark World", "Wolverine", "R.I.P.D". He was rethinking ever seeing a movie again. After the film, I was totally surprised to hear him declare that he LOVED "The Lone Ranger" and most importantly, had a really good time watching it. He was actually angry with the critics for dissing this movie. Ignore the critics. Have a good time and enjoy this terrific summer movie.
