  Fences 2016

  ★★★ Watched 10 Jan 2017 1

  This movie made me feel stupid for not enjoying it more.

  There's some great acting on display here and I usually enjoy movies that were originally plays, but not this time.

  Maybe I need to take a break from films for a while, movies that are critically acclaimed usually click with me. This is the second in a row that hasn't.

  I think Denzel Washington will make for an interesting director. Not sure if this is his first directing effort or not. Don't feel like checking.

  Time for some other things for a while.

  I couldn't wait to see what would happen next.

  Great cast with Adams, Renner and Whitaker.

  Might be my favourite movie of the year. Stellar. A true must see. I don't like this movie, I love it.

  ★★★ Watched 06 Jan 2017 2

  I think I'll be seeing more motion pictures at home than in the theatres in 2017, but this was one movie that I wanted to see in the theatres. Some movies are just much, much better with a screen bigger than any wall in most homes and with perfect, crystal clear sound.

  To top it off, I got to see it at a matinee screening. The kids are on still on Christmas break here in Narnia, but the theatre I…
