  Patterns of Evidence: The Exodus 2014

  ★★★★½ Watched 20 Mar 2024

  Very compelling. Cheesy staged visuals during a lot of the narration, but that didn't take much away from the meat of the message.

  Barbie 2023

  ★★★ Watched 04 Jan 2024

  If not for the on-the-nose feminist rant and the message of women not needing men (note: we both need each other), this would've been better. But it had enough good bits and laugh-out-loud moments for me that I can't crap on it too much.

  Houseguest 1995

  ★★★ Watched 30 Mar 2019

  Totally a nostalgic pleasure for me.

  Pros:
  - Phil Hartman
  - 90's nostalgia
  - The guy that played Larry.

  Cons:
  - Hard to feel a threat from those two dunderhead mobsters
  - Jokes are pretty dated
  - The goth daughter's obsession with old poets didn't really seem realistic to me
  - The little girl was kind of annoying, as most precocious little kids in movies are to me
  - Sinbad's constant talking can get old
  - I had to really suspend my disbelief to accept that Sinbad's character can get away with his identity theft for so long and through so many situations

  Audacity 2015

  ★★½ Watched 01 Sep 2015 1

  My takeaways from this are...

  *Ben Price is a really good impersonator of famous people.
  *Evangelism is hard.
  *Christian movies are not usually good at creating organic-looking social situations.
  *Ray Comfort is a brave, brave man.
  *Whoever wrote the script must have an easily satisfied sense of humor.
  *I don't know if this film really succeeds as an evangelism tool or a movie, but it does give you things to think about.
