The Chosen
(2017)

Don't expect a Biblical based Jesus
There is no way this movie only has reviews with ten stars. That just doesn't happen. It tells me these reviews are rigged.

I love a good Christian movie with a biblical representation of Christ. This movie is mostly fiction with some biblical doctrine thrown in.

The dialogue is ridiculous. It is written as if in modern times. This movie took too many liberties for me. If you don't mind that, then watch it.

Jesus: His Life
(2019)

Very interesting
I have enjoyed this series so far in that it joins history with the Bible. I like the historical commentary. Several of the commentators are completely secular and just make stuff up re what Jesus and others were thinking. I take all that with a grain of salt.

The John The Baptist hour was ridiculous in that it totally twisted the reason John existed & why he preached. The rest have been good esp the hour from Mary's. point of view. I found it quite moving.

The Caephus hour enlightened me re his role vs Pilates role and gave me a better understanding of the Sanhedrin.

I'm a believer and have enjoyed this series so far. I've found it educational. I am interested in secular commentary whether I agree with it or not!

Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice
(1969)

Ridiculous movie
Ridiculous movie not related to reality. Needless to say I hated it but I have values

Anna Karenina
(2012)

Horrible!
I watched ten minutes of this and was horrified by the casting and the stylized direction of this nightmare. Once Vronsky walked in looking like an effeminate whatever with highlighted hair I turned it off. This is suppose to be the dark handsome Vronsky Anna couldn't resist!! Ridiculous acting casting & direction. Btw It's one of my favorite novels so I'm familiar with the story & charsctets as they are written

La La Land
(2016)

Agree with other reviewer--- Insipid
OK a musical where neither actor can sing or dance. That is not a good idea to say the least. I find Emma Stone to be annoying and a terrible actress. She is monotone! I must be the only person that doesn't like her but I think she is terrible.

I didn't like either of the self absorbed self pitying characters. I didn't care what happened to them. The dialog is thin. It could have been written by a child. The music is uninteresting. I did like the one song John Legend did.

Need I say more? I find it sad that movie goers today are finding this piece of trite amazing. Don't waste your money!
