I’ve watched a few movies over the last few days and I want to recommend some of them. The first one, that I thought was really entertaining was The Amateurs starring Jeff Bridges. This movie is a comedy about a man having a mid-life crisis and the town that supports him. It’s really a journey of a man who finds something he can devote his thinking, effort, and time to. He decides to shoot an Amateur Porno with the help of his friends and various town residents. What really makes this movie stand out is the cast of characters, played by some of the best actors in Hollywood. I’m especially impressed with Joe Pantoliano who plays a character named “Some Idiot.” Another standout performance is from William Fichtner

I gave this movie a 5 out of 5 stars on Netflix, but would give it closer to an 8 on IMDB.

I also watched the movie The Ten. The Ten is a collection of 10 radically strange stories about the ten commandments. This movie is from the people behind “The State” and stars in various roles, each member of The State. The stories themselves range from a story about a man who jumps from a plane and survives, but cannot move from the place he is in to a story about a woman falling in love with a ventriloquist doll.
4 out of 5 stars on Netflix, 7 stars on IMDB.
