Director: Tom Mankiewicz His 2nd movie My 2nd movie watched from the directorCandy is never dull, forever affable, and his comedy is enduring. What if you were a part of the world you wrote? Mediocre writing and directing, atrocious editing, inconsistent cinematography style... all attribute to this being a miss for the legend, none of which is his fault, all of which are things people may not realize can make a comedy great.Added to Lists: Top Ten Performances - John Candy The Head Injury High Concept Comedy: Ranked __________ Location: Manhattan, NYC, NY, U.S.A

Director: Asghar Farhadi His 8th movie My 2nd movie watched from the directorA movie like this depends so much on the performances, and damn they deliver. Farhadi knows how to advance a plot with beautiful control. The kidnappers' reveal isn't mind-blowing but it's believable and good enough. I found it interesting how this is a movie about a kidnapping but it's only have the story they're telling.Added to Lists: Top Ten Films - Asghar Farhadi Top Ten Performances - Penelope Cruz Top Ten Performances - Bárbara Lennie Top Ten Performances - Javier Bardem (Honorable Mention) Parents' Nightmares - 20 of the Best Kidnapping Movies __________ Location: Madrid Suburbs, Spain

Director: Guillermo Del Toro His 12th movie My 9th movie watched from the directorDid we need another Pinocchio movie? No. Am I fine Del Toro took on the story? Yes. He has always been known for his memorable creatures and imagery and delivers once again. But really outside of that, nothing really wowed me in this movie. I found most of the characters grating and while the story is different from past versions it's not necessarily better. But I will say it again, the animation, imagery, character designs are all pretty great.Added to Lists: Top Ten Films - Guillermo Del Toro Top Ten Performances - Christoph Waltz - Honorable Mention Again, Again, Again, Again - The 4-Timers Club __________ Location: Collodi (and other towns), Italy

Director: Joe Wright His 8th movie My 7th movie watched from the directorI wasn't too impressed with this yet-another "Rear Window" take, but I'm also confused by the very low ratings. There are enough production aspects and performances to make this tough to call "Bad". It is one of those strange movies where it seems like it's a sure thing, with a cast that includes Amy Adams and Gary Oldman, a proven director in Joe Wright, etc. yet it came out with people slamming it and performed with a whimper.Added to Lists: Stuck in One Place __________ Location: Harlem in Manhattan, NYC, NY, USA

Season 1
Vignettes about love. A lot of it doesn't seem so modern, they just take place in present day. Some are sweet, some are annoying, some seem pointless, most are well-acted and decently written. Overall I wasn't that into it, as much as I love love.

Director: Ron Howard His 31st movie My 25th movie watched from the directorSeveral very strong performances in Ron Howard's adaptation that partly takes place in the 90s and definitely feels like a movie made in the 90s. Critics don't like that, but I love the touch and it reminds me of a better movie decade. I thought this was fictional and didn't realize this was actually a biopic until the end, which was a unique surprise.Added to Lists: Top Ten Performances - Amy Adams (HM) Top Ten Performances - Glenn Close Top Ten Performances - Hayley Bennett An Evolution of American Stories: Ron Howard __________ Location: Middletown, OH, USA; New Haven, CT, USA
