Back from the beyond

Post – July 2, 2002

I’ve seen a lot of movies lately.

Enigma
Two solid hours, and every single thing that happened in the movie happened off-screen, and was recounted to others in painful, British-accented exposition. Stinker.

Dangerous Lives of Altar Boys
A pleasant surprise. A little overwrought at times, but sweet-hearted and well-acted. The young leads are extremely effective at depicting what it’s like to be 14, and the animation by Todd McFarlane is icing on the cake. Oh, and Jodie Foster plays a one-legged nun.

My Big Fat Greek Wedding
Fluffy and filled with stereotyping, this movie is still a fun, lightweight summer experience. You walk out with a smile on your face, and these days, what more can you ask for?

    I am jealous. I don’t think Altar Boys is playing down here.

    Ha ha, Enigma sounds just like ancient Greek tragedy. We’re spoiled these days, I tell you…

    Where do you get the time to do all this? You lucky dog.
