Interesting Movie of the Day ....

Interesting Movie of the Day ....


October 1 (2014)


Director: Kunle Afolayan


Writer: Tunde Babalola (script writer)


Stars: Femi Adebayo, Ademola Adedoyin, Kayode Aderupoko


"As Nigeria prepares for independence from the British in 1960, a seasoned police detective rushes to find the serial killer slaughtering its native young women."




My comments: Memorable Nigerian movie has several things going for it. The window into another culture, time and place was fascinating. The movie was easy to watch and the plot was coherent. The acting was a tad strange at times, but that added to the charm for me. I have never seen another Nigerian movie, so this one really stands out.

Aragonite acts as a stabilizing stone, and can be helpful for those who have focused solely on spiritual pursuits to the exclusion of other necessary tasks. Aragonite assists those who need to release issues from the past as well as attachments in the present.

Movie Review of the Day ....


Magic of Belle Isle


Morgan Freeman (Actor),    Virginia Madsen (Actor),   
Rob Reiner (Director)    


Rated: PG (Parental Guidance)


" Morgan Freeman plays Monte Wildhorn, a famous Western novelist whose passion for writing hits an impasse. He takes a lakeside cabin for the summer in picturesque Belle Isle, befriending the family next door an attractive single mom (Virginia Madsen) and her young daughters who help him find inspiration again."


My comments ... I usually don't watch movies that are meant to be "heart warming" but this one caught my attention because Morgan Freeman usually gives a stellar performance and is worth watching. Well, he didn't disappoint in this movie. I found the movie to be fun, interesting, and I felt darn good when it was over. That's a very high recommendation from me. No cursing, no tawdry sex, no explosions. Lovely.

Movie review of the day ...


Battleship (2012)


Rated PG-13 for intense sequences of violence, action and destruction, and for language |


Director: Peter Berg
Writers: Jon Hoeber, Erich Hoeber
Stars: Alexander SkarsgÄrd, Brooklyn Decker, Liam Neeson


A fleet of ships is forced to do battle with an armada of unknown origins in order to discover and thwart their destructive goals.


Based on the classic Hasbro naval combat game, Battleship is the story of an international fleet of ships who come across an alien armada while on Naval war games exercise. An intense battle is fought on sea, land and air. What do the aliens want?






My comments: This movie didn't seem like anything that would be my cup of tea. I avoid movies with explosions, and the reviews were just awful.  But, Alexander is in it, so I began watching.


I loved it! I don't know what this says about my intellect but I loved the awesome Navy stuff, the sappy romance, the "hero saves the world" story, the whole shebang.


It was fun, entertaining, cleverly made to include features of the Hasbro game (the movie was made by Hasbro) and the ending, with their last ditch effort, had me in tears I was so moved.


I LOVED BATTLESHIP! There, I said it on the Internet for all the world to see. I think I'll watch it again. Soon.

Audio book review of the day ....

Audiobook review of the day ...


Day Shift (A Novel of Midnight, Texas Book 2) by Charlaine Harris. Read by Susan Bennett.

"In Midnight Crossroad, Charlaine Harris “captures the same magic as the world of Bon Temps, Louisiana, and [took] it to another level" (Houston Press). Now the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Sookie Stackhouse novels returns to the one-traffic-light town you see only when you’re on the way to someplace else…


There is no such thing as bad publicity, except in Midnight, Texas, where the residents like to keep to themselves. Even in a town full of secretive people, Olivia Charity is an enigma. She lives with the vampire Lemuel, but no one knows what she does; they only know that she’s beautiful and dangerous.


Psychic Manfred Bernardo finds out just how dangerous when he goes on a working weekend to Dallas and sees Olivia there with a couple who are both found dead the next day. To make matters worse, one of Manfred’s regular—and very wealthy—clients dies during a reading.
Manfred returns from Dallas embroiled in scandal and hounded by the press. He turns to Olivia for help; somehow he knows that the mysterious Olivia can get things back to normal. As normal as things get in Midnight."




My comments: I just loved this book. It continued the same interesting characters as the first book and added a bunch of new ones, all delightfully weird, even the "normal" ones. Mr. Snuggly is wonderful. My only regret is that the book couldn't contain all the possible stories of the amazing citizens of Midnight. CH has hit it out of the ballpark again, bringing all her magic and enchantment to me, the reader. I loved the reader. Susan Bennett, she enhanced the already wonderful stories and characters.
