Recommended Movies Here are the films I recommend the most out of the ones listed above that Ive seen along with new releases that look great Mystical Brain
This is a documentary that has my attention due to its unique subject matter. There have been unexplained instances that have occurred with many people that are linked to religious miracles due to psychological and physical healing of the mind and body through meditation and religion. This film shows how the University of Montreal conducted the study along with its findings of meditation and the way it works within the brain. Halloween II
I cant tell you how badly I wanted to watch this movie in the theater but my schedule at the time just wouldnt allow for it. Now is the time to check it out! Im hoping this Rob Zombie flick will be available by the time I get to the video store tonight because I cant bear one more day without watching it! The first Halloween he gave us knocked me off my feet. The original hit was so old and overplayed when Rob Zombies first rendition was released that I was a little discouraged that it might be more of the same thing or at least similar and, boy, was I wrong. I am the proud owner of Zombies first Halloween film and I heard from a reliable source that Halloween II might even be better! The Burning Plain
This film has not one story but many that are ultimately connected in one way or another and it seems to be a very captivating drama. Im not a Kim Basinger fan, in fact, I would probably give her a D on her acting skills but thats just me. That doesnt mean that Ill let it stop me from watching this film when it has such an interesting plot, especially with an actor like Charlize Theron. The characters involved strive to find the answers they need to find happiness in life from a child who crosses the Mexican border by herself to help her family to a couple trying to figure out what to do with the affair they have become involved with as married people. Im assuming this film will have a slow tempo but the journey should be quite entertaining. Tyler Perrys I Can Do Bad All By Myself
Tyler Perry movies are wonderful. Theyre everything from drama to comedy and back again and the acting is always superb. This looks like another hit by Perry and the plot seems, once again, very relatable. Perry has a way of touching the hearts of the audience by brushing on many personal topics that we encounter in our lives from parenting, marriage and career choices to personal and financial success.
