Revenge and Vengeance
Four Brothers- is a good movie. It has action, suspense, thrills and chills.
The plot: When an inner-city Detroit foster mother (Fionnula Flanagan) is murdered in a botched holdup, four of her now-grown adopted children suspect it was no random killing. Rising musician Jack (Garrett Hedlund), former-Marine Angel (Tyrese Gibson), hotheaded hockey player Bobby (Mark Wahlberg) and settled-down husband and father Jeremiah (André Benjamin) go on the hunt for neighborhood criminal kingpin Victor Sweet (Chiwetel Ejiofor) while being trailed themselves by the local beat cops.
The cast is good, the action is good, the suspense is good and its a good thriller.

Emma @ The Movies (1786 KP) rated Tully (2018) in Movies
Sep 25, 2019
A mother of three hires a night nanny to help with her newborn.
Firstly, I'd like to say how impressed I am that the twist of this wasn't spoilt in anything that I saw before going to the film. I was pleasantly (?) surprised by it.
Tully was an interesting film, slightly awkward and quite emotional. It's a fairly niche movie though, and I can't see it appealing to a very large group of people.
I'm struggling to find a lot to say about this one. Definitely not an indication that I didn't like it, as is sometimes the case for my silence. It's just very difficult to sum it up.

Unfortunately we live in a world where many will not give this movie a chance at all simply because it is touted as being faith based.
What really needs to be recognized here is the message. The message of a mother and a family support system who simply refuse to accept that her son will not recover from falling through the ice of a frozen lake.
Dennis Haysbert and Mike Colter both provide performances in supporting roles that really help put everything else into place, right where it should be. Topher Grace earned a level of respect from me that I didn't think he would achieve in his role, as well.

A Royally Good Time
While the story is essentially the same, there are some extra things added to the game. One of the big things is two new characters/confidants in the game. They blend into the story beautifully. There is a new opening for the game as well as a new opening song. There are extra cutscenes, new areas for Joker and his friends to hang out in, and extra secret areas in the palaces. Overall, the changes make the game even better. You can read my full Mother Gamer review here: http://lorrie28-mothergamer.blogspot.com/2020/05/persona-5-royal-royally-good-time.html
