A Few Not-So-Good Films
I’m not quite sure how this happened, but I’ve seen quite a few bad or mediocre movies recently. Here is a rundown of two decent movies and three terrible ones.

The Lincoln Lawyer

You’re nobody ’till somebody shoots you.
Exactly the kind of movie I get in the mood for sometimes. A solid cast, a predictable, but not too predictable story, a very fallible good guy, and Marisa Tomei.

Hanna

I just missed your heart.
This was a quirky thriller about a young girl who was trained as an assassin.
*
Little Fockers
*
I’m watching you.
I’m a big fan of Stiller, Wilson, and DeNiro, but it is time to put this franchise to bed.
*
A Simple Wish
*
They plugged that loophole up years ago.
We watched this as a surprise for my wife who is a big fan of Martin Short. It was not his best work.
*
Sucker Punch
*
I’m gonna escape from here.
I heard from a few people that this movie was better than they expected. They must not have expected much. This movie was a bizarre festival of nonsense.
