Happy Christmas (2014)
Entertainment and Distraction
I don't understand how some have portrayed this movie as a bad thing. Anna Kendrick always flashes her smile when in a movie. Nothing wrong with that. It wasn't very Christmas oriented but it fit by the ending. It just wasn't woven into the plot enough to make it seem like a plausible title. But that didn't detract from the movie for me like some. I think the title may have been meant to be sardonic. Especially the word "Happy" in the title, as there wasn't much Christmas in the movie. Not that there had to be. It still worked in the long run.
What wasn't entertaining was trying to decipher Melanie Lynskey's accent. I couldn't tell if she was supposed to be British or Canadian or something else. However, I always enjoy watching her movies. And most of the time, it didn't seem like she had an accent.
Overall, I liked the movie. But that is the extent of it. It wasn't really a dramedy, more of a drama. A light-hearted drama.
Heartland (2007)
The Best Canadian Television Show
Heartland is full of adventurous tales. Each episode is full of adventure, drama, and a little comedy thrown in. I'm going to miss finishing this series. My favorite character is Lou. Despite the performances for Amy and Ty and Jack, Lou is the best actor. Can't wait to see her in something new.
In the Dark (2019)
Blind Potential
The plot of this show is not bad at all. It is a good storyline. But with that said, it is too hard to ignore the fact that the main character is blind but has perfect make-up done every morning and all day. Nothing in the story about someone helping her. Also, being around some blind people, the movement of her body and her eyes do not seem very realistic. If that was not so distracting, it would be a better show.
Staten Island Summer (2015)
Silly Teenage Sex and Drug Movie
Just another silly teenage sex and drug movie. Enough SNL stars to bring some humor to it. And thank god for leaving Seth Rogan out of it. It was worth a few laughs.
