VIEWS ON FILM: The Gift 2015 * * * Stars
http://www.viewsonfilm.com/2015/08/the-gift-2015-stars.html
Saturday, August 8, 2015. The Gift 2015 * * * Stars. Rating: * * * Stars. Cast: Jason Bateman, Rebecca Hall, Joel Edgerton. Jason Bateman's latest is 2015's The Gift. I sure as heck hope so. Misled by its trailer (this is not a thriller or a horror exercise but a hard-edged drama), using tons of gifts as props (naturally), and presenting its conflicted narrative right from the get-go, The Gift. Now I read a review where a critic talked about The Gift. And The Hand That Rocks the Cradle. All in all, I fig...

VIEWS ON FILM: Ricki and the Flash 2015 * * Stars
http://www.viewsonfilm.com/2015/08/ricki-and-flash-2015-stars.html
Sunday, August 9, 2015. Ricki and the Flash 2015 * * Stars. Rating: * * Stars. Cast: Meryl Streep, Rick Springfield, Kevin Kline. In 2015's Ricki and the Flash. Not really. And although Streep is likable playing Ricky Randazzo (her stage name), she gives off the stoner vibe half the time. Uh and honestly, could we as an audience, sympathize with someone who abandons their family, moves to California (from middle America), and never really makes it to rock-'n'-roll glory? To a sexy divorcee (2009's It's.

VIEWS ON FILM: American Sniper 2014 * * * Stars
http://www.viewsonfilm.com/2015/02/american-sniper-2014-stars.html
Tuesday, February 3, 2015. American Sniper 2014 * * * Stars. Rating: * * * Stars. Cast: Bradley Cooper, Sienna Miller, Ben Reed. I once read a review on an earlier Clint Eastwood movie called Mystic River. In it, a well known critic sited his work as a product of quote unquote, "meat and potatoes" film making. I suppose it meant that he's not overly elaborate and more straightforward in his storytelling ways. Well, Clint's newest and most tiring endeavor American Sniper. Okay, I'll give you that one.

In National Lampoon's Vacation. 1983), Clark W. Griswold (Chevy Chase) takes his family to Wally World and the journey is shall we say, shambolic. Thirty-two years later, we get Clark's grown-up son (played by Ed Helms) taking that same journey in Vacation. Now for all you facetious aficionados, Vacation. Installments combined)...

http://www.viewsonfilm.com/2015/07/ant-man-2015-12-stars.html
Monday, July 20, 2015. Ant-Man 2015 * * 1/2 Stars. Rating: * * 1/2 Stars. Cast: Paul Rudd, Michael Douglas, Evangeline Lilly. Scott, I need you to be the Ant-Man." So quips the Michael Douglas character, a radical physicist with a penchant for training ant organisms of the malevolent kind. Me, well I had a "need" to see Ant-Man. The movie, a "need" to like Ant-Man. I wanted Honey, I Shrunk the Badass Superhuman. Is something I wouldn't quite recommend. However, it's unlike any Marvel endeavor I've ev...

VIEWS ON FILM: Into the Woods 2014 * * Stars
http://www.viewsonfilm.com/2014/12/into-woods-2014-stars.html
Thursday, December 25, 2014. Into the Woods 2014 * * Stars. Rating: * * Stars. Cast: Meryl Streep, Chris Pine, Anna Kendrick. Johnny Depp has always been known to play weirdos or freaks on camera. 2014's Into the Woods. Is just another film catering to his fixation for such fodder. His role in "Woods" hightails the fictional Big Bad Wolf and he's on and off the screen faster than a speeding bullet. Does his five minutes of fame really matter though? Now with Into the Words. Regardless, this wannabe criti...
