Civil War (2024)
Absolute waste of time
This movie was an absolute waste of time and 2 hours. It will win a ton of awards, as the most boring movies typically do. I had to continually wake my husband throughout the movie since it was his idea to see it. I didn't have high hopes for the movie after the preview. It looked like an artsy fartsy film that we usually hate. I was right. There was no connection to the characters. There was no explanation of the civil war. No background on the characters, really. The soundtrack was completely distracting from the movie. The statement the writers were making is lost on me. If you saw the preview, you saw the movie.
Romance in Style (2022)
Really disappointing
This had the makings of a great movie. I think the 9s and 10s previously given as ratings are from all of the overweight women. I say that as the size 16 woman that this movie is geared towards. While I do think the fashion industry caters to the Size 0s of the world and I love the idea of pushing the industry to actually change, I do not think it is any healthier to push obesity, which is what Size 16 is, in the name of "body positivity". Again, this comes from a woman who knows her Size 16 needs to be more like a Size 6. I love the leads from Grey's and Code Black and was excited to see them together. I didn't see the chemistry everyone talked about even though they are both great actors. The writers made it VERY difficult to like Ella. She was so rude and condescending to the guy she supposedly liked that I couldn't figure out why he'd ever want to be with her anyways. I had higher hopes given the actors, but this was a miss.
Our Christmas Wedding (2023)
Terrible acting
I love Great American Family and the fact that they are offering wholesome shows and an alternative to Hallmark; however, the acting is terrible in this movie. I wanted to like it, but it was so bad that it was almost unwatchable. The storyline is wonky and very unrealistic. I feel like the movie could have been good with a few tweaks to the plot and the actors lines, but this was just really hard to finish. I felt like the two main characters did have some chemistry, but they just didn't know how to play off of GAC has had some other great movies this year, but this just isn't one of them!!!!
Hocus Pocus 2 (2022)
Absolutely Awful
This was just awful. AWFUL. We watched it with our kids, who found it mildly amusing. I found myself playing on my phone 10 minutes into the movie. I couldn't wait for it to be over. The Sanderson Sisters were certainly the stars and they seemed to enjoy the reprise of their roles. But the acting from the supporting characters was like watching community theater. The storyline wasn't even interesting. If you've seen any of the trailers, you've seen all of the funny parts. I'm so over Disney's diversity nonsense. I'm sick of them portraying all of the white characters as bumbling idiots. This was just awful.
