The Poison Rose (2019)
I think this movie is underrated.
It's rated only a 4.6, but in my opinion, it's better than that. It's not great, but I love film noir and this was a pretty good one. I like how John Travolta narrated throughout the movie, like a classic film noir. I liked the steamy, Southern atmosphere and the plot twists & turns. It had a star-studded cast and they all did a very good job. I liked that John Travolta's real life daughter had a role in this movie and the scenes between the two of them were very sweet & tender. I liked the slow, sensual pace of the movie, which is realistic for us Southerners. We don't rush for anything. Lol And I loved the music in the film, especially that seductive trumpet tune which played during the end credits. This movie just oozed steamy, Southern flavor and the acting was good by all involved. Like I said, not great, but if you like classic film noir with a sultry Southern feeling (I certainly do) then you'll like this film. Give it a try, who knows? You might love it as much as I did. I gave it a 6, but would've given it a 6.5 if I could have.
Planet of Dinosaurs (1977)
Cheesy, Campy, Sci-Fi Fun!
I absolutely love this movie! It's so bad it's good! Great story line--space travelers are forced to make an emergency landing on a strange, distant planet only to find that their new habitat is filled with hungry dinosaurs. They must band together to survive the blood-thirsty beasts, and also to find food and shelter. The acting is mediocre, the dialogue is cheesy, and the special effects are not great, but the movie is still lots of fun. I happen to love B sci-fi movies and if dinosaurs are involved, all the better, so this movie was right up my alley. The cast was attractive in a very 70's sort of way and I thoroughly enjoyed watching them bond emotionally in their fight for survival. Not the best movie ever made, but it is very entertaining. Highly recommended if you like campy cult films.
Nappily Ever After (2018)
Loved this movie!
A great movie about how women turn themselves inside out trying to be perfect and the empowerment we can find when we finally just let ourselves be who we truly are. The beautiful and talented Sanaa Lathan is superb in this role. She's funny, sassy, vulnerable and achingly real. This movie is very relatable to any woman who has ever struggled with self-esteem issues and/or had her heart broken by love, and that would probably be all of us. Highly recommended.
