What Was the Last Movie You Watched?

"The Upside"....so good!
Good acting, funny, and heartwarming...based on a true story.

The trailer doesn't do it justice.
It's on Hulu. Watch it for free with a free trial.

The following 2 X movies were Bad. As in really, really bad.

On the Dud scale - ms gamboolgal and I give them strong 8 to 9 rating.

Sorry to say, we endeavored to persevere and endured them both in their entirety.

Do not recommend.

Apache Junction:

The Survivalist: this one was so bad, that I found myself unable to quit watching it as it was just so bad..... I could not quit watching it....
 

Made in 1968. English. I liked it. It is a pretty clever story. It brought back a lot of memories about that time period...the sexual revolution and the "pill" during the 60's. Many of us were affected by how sexual mores were changing back then. It has a "fun" quality to it.

The conflicting and comical attempts by a wealthy London banker and his mistress, together with four other couples, to avoid pregnancy by using contraceptive pills.
 
Army of One

We binged on the last 8 episodes of Goliath in the series on Amazon Prime. Riveting and Billie Bob Thornton is excellent. You need to start at Season 1 to understand what's happening with all the characters and how it all leads up to the final season. Highly recommend this. Hated to see it end.

I liked the first season but after that, I lost interest. Glad you liked it, though. :)
 
Tonight I watched on Netflix--Rumor Has It. Stars Jen Aniston and Kevin Costner and Shirley MacLaine.

I liked it a lot. The time passed quickly.

It's about a woman who thinks someone else may be her father and it references the book and movie The Graduate.

I also enjoyed that one! The Graduate references struck me as very clever.

Shirley MacLaine is among the actresses I most enjoy watching, so if she's in something I'll tune in. (Thought she was brilliantly cast in that Downton Abbey guest role. What a hoot it must have been for her and Maggie Smith to play off one another in those few episodes.)
 

My Sister's Keeper​

Cameron Diaz (There's Something About Mary, Shrek films) stars as a mother whose daughter is diagnosed with a fatal form of leukemia. In a desperate bid to save the life of her first daughter (Abigail Breslin--Little Miss Sunshine, No Reservations), she bears another daughter--specially conceived and implanted to be an ideal donor for her older sister. Now, 11 years later, that second child has undergone countless invasive procedures, blood donations, bone marrow donations--and now her sister needs a kidney. Is it right for a mother to ask one daughter to sacrifice so much for another? Should a child be able to decide for herself how much she will sacrifice for her sister?

We just finished part 3 of 4 of QBVII on Amazon prime, starring Anthony Hopkins and Ben Gazzara and a few other big name actors from the '70s.

Here's what it's about...

A physician (Sir Anthony Hopkins) sues a novelist (Ben Gazzara) for publishing statements implicating the doctor in Nazi war crimes.​

It's pretty interesting. :)
