New Release Tuesday


I apologize for the lack of an update recently, with some work travel and spring break it was busy last week.   Last week brought a couple of noteworthy titles.
The Fighter- Marky Mark sure has come along way.  I did not care for his first few roles but he did a movie with Bill Paxton in the late nineties called Traveler and he showed a little something in that and can be good when he selects a good role.  Props to him for getting into producing as well.  Christian Bale is great and deserved his Oscar for this role.  I do not know how much weight he lost for this role but it was alot but not near much as The Machinist.  He needs to start bulking for Dark Knight Rising, it starts filming later this year.  This was a good flick, almost as inspiring as Rocky.



Hereafter- This is a Clint Eastwood film so it is required viewing but this may be his most underwhelming work in awhile.  I did nit even see this in the theater and that is saying alot.  I like during his press junkets he claims this movie as his "chick flick".  I will give it a spin soon.

True Grit is scheduled for release on June 7.

The Rangers are cruising thru the spring and Opening Day is close.  Bring it on!
