watching... always watching

I actually jotted down these titles and their links FIVE DAYS AGO, but I'm just now getting around to finishing it off and posting it. P-A-T-H-E-T-I-C!

Way back when, when Mom was still here visiting, she was looking for something to watch and we ended up watching Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. Probably my favorite Indy movie, but just by a nose. 4.5*

Sunday was a bigtime movie watching day because I was tired of my Netflix rentals sitting there and mocking me!

First up was Black Book, which we invited Larry & Jerilyn to watch with us. Click the link and read the description and you might be able to guess why. Anyway... It's a 2.5 hour long movie... IN GERMAN! No kidding. Subtitles all the way. It sucked at first, but the movie was so good that at some point I didn't even realize I was reading them anymore. No kidding. 4*

After that L&J were talking about going down to their house and getting some stuff done while I was loading up Waitress. An hour and a half later, there they still were, sitting on the couch! LOL Another good movie that I wasn't the least bit disappointed in watching, but I'm only gonna give it 3*.

Finally we finished things off with One Last Thing. L&J actually did make it back home before I started this one, but just barely! I'm tellin' ya, I was serious about getting these three movies watched!! Now, if you follow the link and read the description on this one it sounds like a teen comedy in the same vein as The Girl Next Door. It isn't. There were some funny spots, but it was so far from the cliche comedy that I could hardly believe it. It actually turned out to be a pretty decent drama. Not my favorite movie by any stretch, but I'd recommend it. 3*

Since that crazy Sunday run the only thing we've watched is CSI, and I'm happy to report that we finished season 6! As long as we've been cranking through these episodes it's next to impossible to rate differences between the particular seasons. Let's just say we love the show and call it good. K? K. 5*

Of course, 3 more Netflix rentals showed up in the mail today! You can bet I'll do my best to have them all watched by Monday. heh-heh

Mom:

You forgot the "Bourne" trilogy?!

Jodi :

I thought nanny diary was a cute movie, hi back, i don't understand why you are telling me now, but i do like to read about how life is going there.

I think the Bourne Trilogy was mentioned in a previous post.
