Colors of Love (2021)
Revolving title, but a decent little movie!
First, you may have noticed the title is different. It seems the title has changed to make it seem more Christmasy. It's not a Christmas movie.
It IS a good, heart-warming romance set in Montana during the autumn season. I rather enjoyed watching this with my wife. It feels a bit like a Christmas Romance, however. The acting isn't bad either. It's worth a watch while snuggled up in front of a fire. Maybe add a hot chocolate...
Dear Christmas (2020)
I wanted this movie to be good...
The best part in this movie was when I asked my wife what rating to give it and Melissa's character said, "One star, just give me one star."
We love Melissa and usually enjoy her movies. However, this one needed a better script and the acting left much to be desired from the entire cast, except for when Melissa's character beats up the inflatable Santa.
Justice League (2017)
Thoroughly Enjoyable
Full-disclosure: I'm a Superman fan. That said, I also like a good film with a good story. To further explain, I liked Dawn of Justice. It had issues, don't get me wrong. But, I still found it enjoyable. The problems I had with the movie were not the same problems the "critics" had. To me, most of the "critics" issues in both Dawn of Justice and Justice League are trivial and even unjust.
Good: Superman ended up being the Superman we all know, love, and deserve to see on the big screen. Humanity realizes after his death just how much they need him, and the hope that he gave them. Batman, Wonderwoman, Flash, Cyborg, and Aquaman played their parts well. And, their roles were relevant to the story. Barry Allen (Flash) was the fitting comic relief. (I Barry wasn't really comical in the comics, it was Wally. But, I still liked it. We've had enough brooding already.) If you follow the comics (or cartoons) even a little, you will see Steppenwolf ended up being written in a way that accurately portrays him as the head of minions (nothing more.) His main goal is to "ascend" to a higher level by conquering humanity.
Bad: The villain could have used more explanation. I think some of the confusion around Steppenwolf's character would have been resolved by at least revealing in more detail the hierarchy. But, it didn't impact the story for me.
