"In which Peter Falk and John Cassavetes play two broken goons who bond, bicker, and ultimately level each other during one rough night in Philadelphia. May made this just a few years after The Heartbreak Kid—a perfect movie, and one that I hope Criterion can add to its catalog someday!—and while the two films couldn’t be more different in terms of tone, they both zero in on a kind of self-defeating, self-aggrandizing male psychology that’s a little too relatable at times. And Falk and Cassavetes are so remarkable here that you can’t help but wonder which two modern actors would play these roles today."

Truly Worth Reading
Though not a typical read for me, I am grateful that the publisher sent me an advanced readers copy because it was such a beautiful story. This story is told from varying views and I found myself easily relating to the younger sister Millie in particular to her choice of a husband. Through the author's writing I, was able to experience the feelings that Ruth and Millie had in such a vivid way, that I often felt as I myself was a part of this well-written story.

This was truly well worth reading and I hope that others take a chance on this story.

This manga is going to tear my heart out and stomp all over it if by the end of the fifth volume we don't have a happy ending. If the future we see throughout this series ends up happening for them I'm going to cry so bad. Just thinking about it is making me tear up. I mean, they're all so close and to lose someone like that...jeez!

I hope that now we (and they) all know that they're in it together that Naho and Kakura get together and ten years from now that he's going to be there happy. Off to start volume 4.

The Warren's daughter Judy (0 more)
Not enough scares (0 more)
I'm a big fan of the conjuring universe and was looking forward to seeing this.I enjoyed it in parts but it could and should have been so much better.

The Warren's daughter Judy is the main focus of this film,focusing on her abilities which are similar to her mothers.The scares are few and far between,the 2 teenage girls are annoying and entirely predictable in their meddling with the evil objects.The film is at it's best when the Warren's themselves are in it (beginning and end of the movie)

Hope the next entry into this series is The Conjuring 3.

Not that I have seen every anime ever made, but from what I have seen this is the most important anime not produced by Ghibli.

Exceptional art leads the way with a hard hitting story that hits on all cylinders every step of the way. I'm very excited to have recently learned that this studio just released a VOD film that I hope to catch very soon. I've heard it is equally good, which says a lot.

While this movie is safe to watch with your young ones, they will likely not be able to take away from it the many meanings that are included.
