POMS

☆☆☆

+
Diane Keaton leads the cast as an aging women who wants to cheer a little before the end of her life with a bunch of fun seniors.

The story just didn't come together, and the characters needed more development. It is hard to cheer for the team when you don't know the players.

Avengers: Endgame

☆☆☆☆1/2

+
The Avengers come up with a plan to bring back everyone that Thanos eliminated, but how will they get the stones to reverse his damage?

This brings back all the Avengers, and several characters (in cameos) that will surprise any viewer...more star power than in any movie.

Cold War

☆☆☆

+
Nominated for two Academy Awards, "Cold War" tells the story of two people who meet in post-war Poland and start an impossible relationship.

VICE

☆☆☆☆☆

+
The incredible story (told with a pinch of humor) of Dick Cheney before, during, and after being Vice President (to George Bush).
Christian Bale is unrecognizable and becomes Dick Cheney. Look for a nomination tomorrow and a strong possibility of a win on Oscar night.
-
Some will question the facts presented in the movie, and that is addressed with humor as well.

Destroyer

☆☆☆☆1/2

One of the best performances of Nicole Kidman's career! If she does not get nominated for this role...it will be a surprise.

Kidman plays Erin Bell, a cop who went undercover and tragically did not return the same woman.

A very intense movie that does not let up for 2 hours.

Leave the kids at home!

Welcome to Marwen

☆☆☆☆1/2

Steve Carell gives a nomination worthy performance as Mark Hogancamp, a man who escapes into a make believe world he creates...to help him deal with life after he was brutally assaulted

Nobody's Fool

☆☆☆☆

+
Tiffany Haddish lights up the screen once again in this crazy romantic comedy. Haddish plays Tanya the wild sister...and Tika Sumpter stars as Danica...the sister looking for love.

Bohemian Rhapsody

☆☆☆☆☆

+
Rami Malek gives an Oscar worthy performance as Queen's front man Freddie Mercury.
The story of the groups ups and downs in the 70s and 80s is fulled with history, music, strong performances, laughs, and tears.

A Star is Born (2018)

☆☆☆☆☆

+
Loved the 1976 version, and this one is equally as good!
Bradley Cooper directs and stars as Jackson Maine, a popular singer who discovers and falls in love with Ally (Lady Gaga).
Cooper can not only act (and sing), but he can direct as well...and Lady Gage can act!

Awards nominations are coming their way!
-
Hard to beat the 1976 version...but they may have done it.
