Jeff Bridges plays a run down, country western singer blessed with talent, but cursed in old age from the relentless sins of alcohol and cigarettes. What could have been, and felt like a modified version of the downfall of Mickey Rourke's Randy in last year's The Wrestler at least part way through, turns out to be something more of a personal triumph over addictions that all too often end in destruction.

The Hurt Locker shows us what it is like to be up close and personal with danger, with an unseen enemy who speaks a foreign tongue. It shows us what it is like to be afraid of dying every day or what it is like to eradicate all fear from your body and face that enemy with the utmost confidence. The Hurt Locker is the story of a group of three Army bomb squad soldiers, young men, who have seen the worst in the Iraq War, yet try to face each day with a strong mind. However, with each day comes new challenges. |

Sandra Bullock and Quinton Aaron star in this mostly accurate story of Michael Oher, a homeless and traumatized boy who became an All American football player and first round NFL draft pick of the Baltimore Ravens, in no small part because of the help of Leigh Anne Touhy and her football friendly family. |

Julie and Julia, released August 7th, is a unique movie which brings to life not just one, but two books. One being Julie Powell’s book of the same name, and the other being Julia Child’s memoir, My Life in France. The movie is directed by Nora Ephron who is an A-lister herself, and features the talented Meryl Streep as Julia, Stanley Tucci as Julia’s husband Paul, and Amy Adams as Julie.

A kid’s movie you might say. But ahhh, you would be so wrong. UP! is a current animated feature that is available for viewing in both regular and 3D versions. I myself went with no expectations for myself, only for the class of grade one students with whom I attended this feature. They loved it and sat with rapt faces turned towards the screen, laughing in all the right places and thoroughly enjoying the plot and effects. |
