Invisible Child.

I just watched The book of Life. I love this movie. It had themes about not killing and against bull fighting. Super cute. It is a must see.

The Book of Life was fantastic.

So many good animated movies in 2014, like, holy crap!

Savage Grace.
Supposed true story of Barbara Baekeland (socialite) and her son, although parts of the story are denied by Sam Green ( friend of Warhol, Garbo, and Lennon).

Boyhood.

Interesting project, as this movie follows the life of a young boy from around age 5 to 20, with the same actors.
The director Richard Linklater met with the actors every year, over a period of 12 years.

Good actors, but I personally found the movie to be a bit depressing at times.
I must say, childhood was not my favourite period in life. Neither, of course, is getting old. Luckily, I don't feel (or act) my age yet ;-)

Best regards,
Andy

And So It Goes. Nothing new, been done a million times and very predictable. Grandfather gets stuck taking care of his grandchild.

What Maisie Knew. This one was really good, I liked it.

 

[Calliegirl]

Take Care. Cute and funny movie.

You're Not You. Very good, but a tearjerker.

Dorfman In Love. Somewhat predictable but still fun to watch.

Grace of Monaco.

 

[Calliegirl]

Mr. Pip. It was good, but I was not expecting it to be so dark.

 

[Calliegirl]

Ask Me Anything. Good, with an interesting twist at the end.

 

[Calliegirl]

Peacock. I really, really liked this one. It's one you have to pay attention to though to catch everything that's going on.

 

[Second Summer]

Testament (1983). Don't watch this unless you want to get depressed.

 

[Andy_T]

Hector and the search for happiness.

OK, but not overwhelming (other than that it has Simon Pegg in it).

 

[Amy SF]

Testament (1983). Don't watch this unless you want to get depressed.

I watched it when it originally aired on TV! And it did depress me. A little. But I got over it.

The Call. I enjoyed it immensely.

If you like a good thriller - it's for you. I had planned to recored it and ended up watching it until the end.

It's scary to think that you can be kidnapped in broad daylight in a car park by a psycho.

Saw Selma on the weekend.

Very good movie!

Strong and interesting story, good acting, important subject.
Strongly endorsed.

Ex Machina. I've been wanting to see this for awhile and it fully lived up to my expectations, I loved it. Great movie if you like SciFi AI movies, but probably a little boring if you prefer car chases and explosions.
