The wolf, the croods, the hustle or the midnight?


One thing I know for 100%...definitely not The Wolf of Wall Street!!!

How to put it nicely in words so that I do not offend anyone out there who likes Leonardo DiCaprio and Martin Scorsese... :)

So maybe I'll just state for the record that in my opinion Leonardo is a very good actor and Scorsese a hell of a director.

However, this movie is....a piece of crap :) sorry, but that's what it is. It's not even close to what I admire Scorsese for and no even a bit from the great movies DiCaprio should be in.

It's a 3 hour waste of time and the only thing I remember from this movie is that everyone was all the time wasted, doing drugs and fucking. 
Whatever else was suppose to be there is covered by the 3 main actors: alcohol, drugs and fucking. There so much of it in there that you don't see the real story...even if you try. And I'm not a nun watching only Disney family movies!




The only outcome after seeing this is that someone does not care any more about good cinema these days...

I also thought...young people nowadays watch so much crap on tv and are given such bullshit figures there is no chance for them to become decent grown-ups ....definitely not if we let them watch movies like The Wolf of Wall Street. 


From time to time I love watching cartoon movies, mostly this trend became famous because of Pixar.

The Croods is a laughing your ass off movie to see with anyone:) I loved it!


Good to watch it with the original sound as you will hear some of the known actors like Nicolas Cage, Emma Stone, Ryan Reynolds and Katherine Keener.

It has good spirit, funny jokes, well evolving plot and at the end it will leave you content and smiling :) What else do you need?

The American Hustle is yet another movie I knew David O Russell would not dissapoint me with!

Perfect cast with Christian Bale in the front and....what a great outcome:) Amy Adams just behind him and Jennifer Lawrence again keeping up the good tempo. 


There is also Bradley Cooper and Jeremy Renner but forgive me boys...this movie is all about Bale, Adams and Lawrence in my opinion!

What I enjoyed so much are the 70's shown in full bloom here! The costumes to die for and the music that gave this little something....mystery and good taste.

Story itself is intriguing and interesting. I really hope some people to get awards here:)


I have left Before Midnight for a dessert because I think I need to go back to the previous 2 movies to get the full picture. Can we call it a trilogy? :)

Am not sure I want to as then it would sound like this is as any other trilogy type of movies we saw and it's not!

Before Sunrise, Before Sunset and Before Midnight. First one from 1994, next in 2004 and last one in 2013. Same actors:) Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy.

It will be interesting to see a relationship between those two thru those years knowing that in real life those years really passed and it changed them as actors and the way they would play their characters.

There is so much honesty in the dialog and between them as a couple that it's actually worth seeing more than once:)
