Andrea’s Angle | “Are You There, God? It’s Me, Margaret” – Beautifully Endearing
I grew up with Judy Blume in the seventies. I especially remember reading this book among others, and the scenes from it provided me with a connection at a time I needed it, during puberty. What I was most concerned with in watching this movie was whether it could capture the unique quality of Judy…

Andrea’s Angle | “Operation Fortune: Ruse de guerre” – Funny and Quirky Characters
I have a soft spot for a Guy Ritchie movie. I usually know what to expect, fun characters, double-crosses, intrigue, crazy action, and snappy dialogue. So I was psyched to see Operation Fortune: Ruse de guerre. After watching the film, while it was predictable, it was everything I expected, with a side dose of satire…

Andrea’s Angle | “Plane” – Action Soars
While I appreciate an action flick as much as the next person, I primarily wanted to see this because of Gerard Butler and Mike Coulter.

Andrea’s Angle | “American Underdog” – Emotional, Hopeful Story
True confession time, I am not a football fan but I was a fan of what I saw of Kurt Warner in the Superbowl with the Arizona Cardinals in 2008. I am also a huge fan of Zachary Levi and Anna Paquin. I’ve watched both in various television shows and films, both are skilled and…

Andrea’s Angle | “The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard”: Fantastically Funny
When The Hitman’s Bodyguard came out in 2017, my husband and I absolutely loved it. It didn’t take itself seriously and was just a blast to watch, especially the comedic interaction between Samuel L. Jackson and Ryan Reynolds. Both men are complete pros, talented, and those skills were demonstrated as they played these characters. Bringing…

Andrea’s Angle | “Voyagers” is a Poorly Executed Lord of the Flies in Space
When I watched the trailer, I was intrigued. Voyagers appeared to have an interesting premise and starred Colin Farrell. The trailer also featured the teen stars of the film and imaginative ideas.

Andrea’s Angle | “I Still Believe” is filled with Hope and Faith
I think it’s universal in humans to want to believe in something beyond themselves and to look for meaning in the negative events in their lives. In the trailer for I Still Believe, it was clear that a story about Jeremy Camp, American contemporary Christian music singer/songwriter, and was going to revolve around faith and…
-
Andrea’s Angle | “The Hunt” is a smart and satirical action thriller!
The Hunt immediately sounded compelling, from just the description of twelve strangers being hunted, a twist on the story of “The Most Dangerous Game”, with one of the twelve, Crystal (Betty Gilpin), turning the tables on her hunters. I thought it sounded exciting and intriguing. What I didn’t expect was to find it as humorous…
