updates!

I just realized that for every movie review I wanted to do some quick one hit comments - Most Valuable Player, and Trivia.

So just to catch up:

Couples Retreat:

MVP: A toss up between Vince Vaughn, who as I mentioned, expands upon his usual persona and Malin Aikerman's eyes. The director of photography on this movie knew what he was doing - every shot, her eyes are as vibrant and blue as the Caribbean!

Trivia: Hard to top that the director, Peter Billingsley, was Ralphie in Christmas Story!


Major Dundee:

MVP: Charlton Heston, delivering a knockout career best performance. When the movie is at its best, it's usually because he's upped his game.

Trivia: The role of Captain Tyreen, the Irish Confederate soldier played by Richard Harris, was originally intended for Anthony Quinn...


The Room:

MVP: Tommy Wiseau - Come on! He wrote, directed, and starred in it! His charismatic bad acting keeps you watching! He is the clear MVP!

Trivia: Wiseau managed to raise $6 million dollars to make this film. That's right. It somehow cost $6 million dollars...

Best Line: This one is easy.  These simple three words have become iconic and are certainly repeated often in my household.  "Oh, Hi Mark."
