Winter Movie Reviews

[Ken]

since there is no baseball for awhile, we're still a couple of weeks away from the first bowl games, and the NFL and the NBA are about as exciting as dry oatmeal...I figured we could weigh in with our take on the winter movie line up. Write a lot or a blurb, All opinions welcome.

Here are a couple of mine.

NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN
Good flick. Probably not as good as most Joel Coen and Ethan Coen films (Fargo, O Brother Where Art Thou?, Big Lebowski) but still worth the price of a movie ticket. The Coen's bring West Texas to the big screen, and they nail the characters and the dialog (you'll swear you know a few of these folks.) No Country is a suspenseful, and comic thriller with Tommy Lee Jones and Josh Brolin giving incredible performances.

I give NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN...

A SLIDING TRIPLE

The only thing Josh Brolin has going for him is the fact that he's married to Diane Lane, period.

Diane must be giving him either "incentives" to step up his game, or ultimatums...either way whatever she's doing it's working. He does a great job in this flick. Did a pretty decent job in American Gangster too.

If Ken had married Holly, he'd have won an Oscar by now.

[texiban001]

She probably had to pay for more acting lessons. I actually feel for the guy though seeing as how his step mom is Barbra Streisand. That b*tch is frackin' scary.

[Ken]

James Brolin has to be the most P-Whipped MFer on the planet. Either that, or he's partially blind and 99 percent deaf, thats the only logical explanation I can come up with.

After doing "The Amityville Horror", his career just kind of went phhhhht.
