I'll Never Forget You: The Last 72 Hours of Lynyrd Skynyrd (2019)
Anything with Gene is the best!
I've read, watched and listened to almost everything Skynyrd. Found this gem last night so of course had to watch it. Especially seeing it was Gene Odom and also based on his first book. Lots of never before seen footage and details. Loved it. However seeing Gene like that at the very end was absolutely heartbreaking :( If you are a fan of the REAL Lynyrd Skynyrd this is a must see. ( Real as in not that cover band parading around under the name Skynyrd ) I would also suggest reading all of Gene's books, watch his videos, listen to his stories, because you won't find a better, more accurate telling anywhere else.
Feral State (2020)
I fully expected this to be bad
My husband and I had no hope for this movie as 1- it was shot in Citrus County and having lived here for 37 yrs and knowing what it's like and the type of people here, we just expected nothing but some cool sights for nostalgic reasons. And 2- Anyone making a good, or decent movie wouldn't be shooting here. But, this was a fantastic movie, well done and decent acting. Completely unexpected. My husband is a major snob when it comes to what seems to be low budget movies and he loved this. I absolutely LOVED seeing all the places shown. Especially Big Blue, that place was such a staple in my childhood and early teens, I grew up out there and lived in Arrowhead for 18 yrs. Had my 6th birthday party at the Roller Barn! Grew up eating at Chicken King, in fact my old fashioned grandfather tipped a waitress there with a penny tails up once she was so bad! ( Early 90s) And let's not leave out Scott Addams butthurt "Eternity in hell" billboard! All in all great movie! Even met Nick Tamposi the other night and talked to him about how much I loved the movie and places featured, not even realizing it was him, at the liquor store ( featured in the movie) Seeing my liquor store guy Beamer in the movie was the cherry on top! It's a must see for anyone living in Citrus County!
Hereditary (2018)
What the HECK was this?!
Slow, boring, overly dramatic draw outs leading up to pretty much nothing. Nothing gets explained, nothing gets talked about pretty much at all. This could have been cut down by at very minimum 45 minutes with all the drawn out dramatics and pauses with zero script just silence or begging for this that or the other. The very beginning showed promise, then, after the "accident", it went extremely downhill. None of it makes any sense and of course they don't bother to explain anything either. So at the end it's just a huge WTF was that?! moment. Thankfully we didn't pay to see this at the movies....
Gas Light (2017)
Whatever you do, DON'T get this movie confused with " THE Nun" ....
This movie was absolute garbage. The first 10 minutes were ok. After that, nothing but garbage. My MOTHER god help her, thought this was the movie I was wanting to see called THE Nun. Nope. Definitely not. Not even close. I can't even with this. One of the worst movies I've seen, and I've seen many horrible movies. This was the worst yet.
Bird Box (2018)
Very similar to other movies yet still with an original twist
I really liked the movie however it was very similar to The Happening and A Quiet Place combined. Not saying it's a bad thing, just if you've already seen those then you'll know what I mean. I just hate how these types of "freak happening" type movies never explain what the heck causes it to start with! They also don't seem to explain why some of the people who have looked, and lived, run around trying to convince people to look.....how did they look and live? Why are they trying so hard to convince people to look? What the heck?!
The Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virginia (2009)
What on earth did I just watch.....
I don't think my brain is EVER going to recover after watching " The Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virginia" ..... I have always heard people exaggerate about " watching this , or listening to that is giving me a headache" But folks....I can tell you first hand, this movie gave me a literal headache. I had to pause it half way through to grab some advil. I had to pause the damn thing multiple times simply because my brain was ceasing to function. The first pause of the evening, came within the first minute of the movie. If you have watched it, or are going to watch it, you will understand....apparently these people get shot....a lot.... among hundreds of other things.
My love and fascination for hill folk suckered me into going ahead and watching this, thinking that after I seen a little gif of the tall skinny old hillbilly man dancing, that this was going to be about hill folk, kind of along the lines of Popcorn Sutton.....well I couldn't have been more wrong in my life. I don't even know what sort of category these people would even be in! I can bet the white trash won't claim them, the hillbillies won't claim them, the rednecks won't claim them....there just ain't even a word to describe these people. Watch if you dare y'all, but don't say I didn't warn you!
Kalifornia (1993)
So slow, so painfully slow...
I had high hopes for this movie, it had a good plot. Could have been a great movie, especially considering the actors/actresses . However this movie was just SO slow, almost nothing at all really going on until the last 3rd of the movie. I really like Juliette Lewis so I got this mainly because of her, and the plot sounded promising but boy was I wrong. Besides the painfully slow majority, the "southern" accents are absolutely terrible, I live in the south. It doesn't sound like that. And the weird noise Pitt's character makes, and the "doors" he yammers about ...what on earth is that about?! Oh and let's not forget Juliette's child like goofy bs....overall just a crap movie.
Girls Trip (2017)
Loved it, don't watch if you're a prude!
I was shocked to see all the bad reviews. I made an account specifically to leave a review for this. I thought it was a pretty funny movie, I only did 8 stars rather than 10 because "Dina" Tiffany Haddish's character is pretty darn annoying. Other than that I thought it was great, had good story line and lots of adult humor. The pee scene was a little over the top, I mean who sprays like a water hose on jet setting? However still funny. Lots of laughs and still a serious note to it with the main character's life and what she is dealing with in her marriage and career. I also love that the uptight mom character ( Jada) finally lets loose and has a great time.
I am surprised that some reviewers kept mentioning some movie called "Bridesmaids" , due to the frequent mentioning of said movie, I went to check out the trailer thinking I might like that one too.....I couldn't even make it through the trailer it was so bland and not even close to funny.
I see a lot of reviews from what seem like older, uptight, religious, and/or "reverse racism" offended people. If you are any of those, don't watch lol. But if you enjoy movies like "Meet the Blacks" , "Friday" 1,2 &3, "Madea" series, "Barbershop" series, etc, then you will most likely love this one!
