Movie Favorite

"Probably some people will go, “Huh?” But I love the film Wag the Dog with Robert De Niro, and Dustin Hoffman, and Anne Heche. It’s a really good movie — sort of political parody I think, that sort of played on what Clinton went through and how they have to sort of trouble shoot, and try to spin the story in order to get him, the president, re-elected and things like that. And even though it was a fictional story, to me it rang really true. And that’s another one that’s very character-driven. I loved every one of them, from Denis Leary to everyone, Willie Nelson… I just thought it was very well done."

I got this as a freebie back in 2012, I think, and only really got around to reading it as part of "We Heart YA groups" A-Z Challenge.

I ended up DNF'ing at 20%.

It wasn't bad or anything, just not enough happened in that first fifth of the story to grab my attention and to make me want to continue reading.

If something other than her starting a new school and learning she's a witch (though she should have figured that out by herself already), oh and meeting a cute boy and his dog, then I might have wanted to continue but like I said, the plot was moving far too slowly for me.

Russ Troutt (291 KP) rated John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum (2019) in Movies

John Wick: Chapter 3 is every bit as awesome and fun as you'd expect. If a dog is a man's, and woman's, best friend then John Wick is a hitman's worst enemy. This poster represents one of my favorite aspects of the movie, the lighting. Just took an already kickass movie to the next level. Like a library book, John Wick can check you out of this life real quick. And as expected, Chapter 3 has plenty of horsepower. Scrape up whatever coin you have for a ticket, cause if you're wondering whether you should see the third installment of one of the best action franchises this century the answer is simply this, yeah.
