My review of the 2001 feature The Royal Tenenbaums staring Gene Hackman, Ben Stiller et/al is available at Amazon.com here.
If there was ever a movie that should have been a TV show instead its this one. It’s a real shame when you have a cast like this stuck on a movie like this.

My review of the 1969 movie Don’t Drink the Water staring Jackie Gleason and Estelle Parsons as tourists caught up in a cold war snafu is available at Amazon.com here.
I remember the movie as being pretty funny when I was a kid, unfortunately for me I’m not a kid anymore although some of the cold war themes appeal to the historian in me. I understand Woody Allen did a remake about 15 years ago. I think with a little effort I might manage to miss it too.
I’m watching Gran Torino today and found a fatal flaw in the movie…

…I’m sorry the idea that someone might have a desire to get Detroit Lions season tickets goes beyond the willing suspension of disbelief.
Detroit Lions 2009 season 2-14-0 .125 246 points for 496 points against.
Other than that so far so good.
