Movie reviews

Some quick takes on movies I've seen recently...

Walk the Line - the story of Johnny Cash from his childhood till he marries June Carter in the late 60s... good movie, strong story, well played main characters (Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon). Some good ole foot-stompin' music too!

Munich - Sadly, this movie is as sanctimonious, longwinded and boring as Spielberg himself. Some fairly decent acting, but even the "action" scenes are mostly dull. Yawn.

Narnia - Ahhhh... fun for the kids (meaning yours truly)! Great animation, well acted, good fun all round. Even a militant atheist like yours truly didn't find it too "Christian".
