#moviereview - The Incredible Burt Wonderstone

 ★☆☆☆☆

Every year, similar movies are released within a few months of each other, and usually, while they share similar traits, they end up being very different. Well, maybe not every year. Last year, there was "Mirror Mirror" and "Snow White and the Huntsman". This year, there's "The Incredible Burt Wonderstone" and "Now You See Me". 

I have a feeling like, with last year's two similar "Snow White" films, the latter will be the better film.

a visit to the local dam

Yesterday, my parents and I visited the J. Percy Priest Dam. It's connected to the Percy Priest Lake, near Nashville Shores.

It rained a lot this past weekend, hence all the water in the dam.

#appreview - Yahoo! Weather (iPhone)

Today, I'd like to talk about this app I recently found called "Yahoo! Weather". It's probably the coolest and best weather app I've ever seen.

I will be posting a lot of pictures of this app, only because I love it, and I think you'll love it, too.

#moviereview - The Company You Keep

I bought the book right before I saw the movie.   ★★★☆☆

The other day, I mentioned how I liked being in a movie theatre with only a few other people. I'm not sure how I felt last night being the only one in the theatre to see "The Company You Keep".

I don't watch too much TV these days, and when I do, it's to catch up on whatever I've decided to record on my DVR. I've seen a few commercials for this movie here and there, and I've seen people comment on other sites about a lack of commercials for this film, so I know the general population probably won't know this film exists. Then again, it's only playing in about 700 theatres in it's widest release, and I doubt the film will have an even wider release.

Now, onto the review...

#moviereview - The Place Beyond The Pines

                                                             ★★★★★

I'm start by saying this: I loved this movie.

Nashville is starting to get more and more limited release films, but we didn't get this film until it has it's nationwide release, so that was two weeks after it's initial release date. Yes, I could wait two weeks, but I was becoming more and more antsy as the days went by.

"Only two more weeks!"

"Only one more week!"

"Is it Friday yet?!"

Well, this past weekend was hectic, so I didn't get to see it until yesterday morning. (I'm glad I went to the matinee. I'm a happy girl only paying $8.50 for a movie!) It's been a long time since I've been to a movie with an almost empty theatre. I like watching movies with crowds because... well, I'm an observer, and I love hearing and seeing lots of people's reactions to movies. It was nice being in a theatre with five other people.

Anyways, onto what you all really want to know...
