    A Few Good Men

    ★★½

    I've been hearing about this flick for a while, but it sadly disappointed. I'll start with what worked for me and then bring up the bad stuff.

    This movie is a court room drama that is carried by two things. Jack Nicholson's performance and a very compelling and captivating main plot. Jack Nicholson isn't in the movie for long, but for the three scenes he is in, they are the ones I remember the most! As for the screenplay, I…

    Puss in Boots: The Last Wish

    ★★★★½

    This movie has no buisness being this good.

    I love the themes of trust, death, and enjoying what you have. Goldie, Softpaws, and Puss all learned from Pierrito that they can get what they want without a wish.

    I loved Goldie's relationship arch with her bear family. "Whether we are your family or not, we will get you that ish" (mama bear)

    The parallelism of the giant being fooled with the spanish splinter brought a smile to my face.

    Lastly,…
