I loved this musical. My auntie who I went with said she didn't like the actor who played Berry Gordy (on our night, the main actor was sick so they used the understudy) she said he didn't sing the songs right. But as someone who is too young to have known Motown in its golden years, this was the best I could get. And it really was the best. All the songs are covers so i knew a lot of them and could sing along. And the actors who played the singers were so fantastic! Stevie Wonder was the spitting double of the real deal and it honestly could have been the real Diana Ross singing.... so believable! They even did this cute little bit were they let the audience sing. They picked some lady who was a bit shy but turned out to be amazing! And some over confident young fellow who is lucky we were too polite to laugh at his futile attempt at Stop In The Name Of Love...

Overall, fantastic play! Up there in my top 5 for sure!

John Lydon recommended Pretties For You by Alice Cooper in Music (curated)

"At 7 I contracted meningitis. It affected my brain, and I slipped into a coma. I spent a year in hospital, and during that time music didn’t play much of a major part. It was very, very hard to get to grips with myself, and it took a good four years to recover my memories. Music wasn’t really there. “By 10, though, I was running a mini-cab service, doing the bookings, which was the best job ever. The money was great so I started buying music. He added: “I was going to two record stores at that time: one in Finsbury Park, run by a sweet little white-haired old lady, that used to have nothing but Jimi Hendrix and big, deep, dense, dark dub—it was always full of Jamaicans. The other one was run by two long-haired chubby fellows who had great taste. That’s where I picked up Alice Cooper’s Pretties for You. It was a long time before he became popular. Pretties for You is a really good example of bad artwork."

Not all of these DC animated movies are going to be as good as The Dark Knight Returns and Knights & Dragons is solid proof of that.
Its a straight down the middle entry for DC, it's got some enjoyable action sequences and the animation looks decent enough, although recently, a lot of these movies are starting to look the same. It doesn't have a unique feel to it in that regard.

Deathstroke has always been a compelling anti-hero, but compelling enough to carry a full length feature? I'm not so sure, and I still remain unsure. There's a fair amount of depth on show here concerning his family life, but honestly, the plot is a bit of a snore fest at times, although I did like to see some more minor characters such as Lady Shiva and Bronze Tiger get some screentime.

Its not the worst DC animated film out there, and is still worth a watch for fans of the brand, but it's not essential viewing.

A Man is Bored
Watched this last night with my wife. About half way through, she asked if I liked it. I said "Not really." She laughed & said the same. There's no question that Lady Gaga is talented. Every time she sang, her voice gave me chills. Her acting is fine too. I like Bradley Cooper, but his singing is just not that good & his bad accent in this film just takes away any believability. That aside, I found the film boring. There is definite chemistry between the two stars, but I never felt any connection to any of the characters. It felt rushed. Everything happened too fast & I never felt like there was enough character development for me to like anyone. And for a movie over 2 hours, there should have been some sort character development. Without that, and without caring, the movie felt empty. When it was over, I was like, "Well, so what?" I still give it 5 out of 10, just to hear Gaga.

Mom's Night Out combines the most prolific Christian film makers of its time to make a comedy centered around a mother at wits end who decided to attempt to have one night out with her lady friends that goes hilariously wrong at every turn.

While similar stories have been told before, it's actually refreshing that I have the option to watch this particular movie with my younger kids whereas I am not able to in many cases due to either language or extremely vulgar content.

Patricia Heaton provides a different tone of her ability as a preachers wife who is attending the night out and finds herself disclosing a quasi sordid past which aligns well with the story while also adding a bit of comic gold. Trace Adkins' sweet sweet baritone is included and is shockingly probably the biggest voice of reason as a hardened biker.

Definitely a movie I could recommend for families. Kids will stay interested and parents won't be bored out of their minds for the duration.
