Last weekend movies...

Lyx had a busy weekend preparing candy bags for the kids at the shelter. We didn't have a chance to sit down and watch movies together.  I had to help myself into this one...
  1. The Devil's Double, *
    This film tells the alleged story of Latif Yahia, an Iraqi national recruited to be the double of Uday Hussain. In my opinion, the movie has cheap stamped everywhere. I think they had the chance to tell the story of one fallen modern dictator through a forced servant but it came out slow, bland, some minutes of softcore porn, and most sadly trying to portrait a hard-to-believe-is-truth hero. Even recollections of Jarhead seem better in comparison right now.
The thanksgiving break is over and the missing series are back!
  1. Stacked S01-02 E01-19, **
    Pam Anderson plays the role of Skyler, a bimbo bouncing out of a relationship and trying to avoid the hot, sturdy men that are the story of her life. The solution, find a job at a book store run by two nerd brothers. The jokes are light, filled with sexual innuendo. I laughed out loud on this simple and nipply nippy antithesis of good old Cheers. 

  2. Hawaii five-o S02 E01, ***
    Last season was finished with McGarrett in jail, in this, the first episode of a second season, we are treated with a closure to that history, new characters, and a hint of treason that surely will reverberate all over this season.

  3. Castle S04 E10, **
    Really? Come on, this is the second time that Castle and Beckett are trapped together! Give me something nice and new! At least they are keeping up with current pop culture references.

  4. Last Man Standing S01 E10, ***
    Mike has to deal with Christmas, specially the time for forgiving part. I loved the "That's all you keep from church, Forgiveness? What about the vengeful guy, rainning brimstone and toads on people?"

  5. Big Bang Theory S05 E11, *
    The guys are bad without any punch, but the girls. O, the girls are enjoying their time atoning raiding charity clothes boxes.

  6. Psych S06 E08, *
    It seems this was not my week for tv-series. Gus fells in love, again, but this time it comes with murder and fraud, at least this time he's not the target.
