F. W. Colqhoun's Movie Reviews |

We took shelter in a cave and waited for the storm to pass. The storm did not pass. So we watched movies. |

C'mere!! |

O-ho!! |

Historically accurate, consistent. Mrs. MacCready likes the close-ups of Joseph.
*** |
|
|
Nice historical drama. Joe's head is too pointy for the tonsure, though.

The Count of Monte Cristo |
|
WTF? It's Boyd's face, but the hair...the clothes...the weaselly demeanor...He's been possessed by the spirit of Lindus!
*** |
|
|
A decent movie on its own, and the bizarro nancy-Boyd was surreal.

Gags would have been funny in a Leslie Nielson movie 20 years ago, but don't work any more.

I only rate it this high because of the penguins. I like penguins.

Interesting and funny. The real amusement came from seeing Toffler with a Chekov haircut.
***** |
|
|
Mrs. MacCready says Toffler is cute in this and she likes his boxer shorts.

Jennifer couldn't save this one. It went nowhere.

Dark Water |
|
Started off good, but too formulaic, and the ending sucked.

Don't expect to be spoon-fed by this intricate puzzle of a movie. Pay attention, because it's really good!

Boyd is again beset by hard luck and cruel fate. Mrs. MacCready can't stop slobbering over his tatooed torso. I may have to kill her.

The dragons were not bad, considering.

|
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire |
|
Too much film wasted on trivial things and not enough spent on plot.

The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert |
|
|
|
I didn't think I could enjoy a movie that consistently subjected me to Hugo Weaving in a dress, but after a while it almost seemed normal.
***** |
|
|
Boyd is happy, talkative, and wears wigs and G-strings on a funny, funny road trip with the other girls.
