Last week a friend who really wanted to see The Age of Adaline dragged me out to our little two screen local movie theatre. We had pop and chocolate and popcorn and the best seats in the house. It was a wonderful break from stress and worrying! This movie reminded me of a modern twistContinue reading “Age of Adaline – a review”

Allegiant: Parts I & II?
I could be way behind the curveball here, but I just heard that they are splitting Allegiant into two movies. So maddening. It is a huge turn-off for me when production companies do this, because it is purely for profit and always produces a sub-par product.

Furious 7 – a review
Furious 7 is the seventh movie in the fast and the furious franchise (I know, who could have guessed?) and seeing as this is one of my favourite series, I knew that I had to see it opening weekend. Today being Good Friday, I invited along my oldest niece and made the 40 minute driveContinue reading “Furious 7 – a review”
