Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw (2019)
Super fun movie; where's the sequel? And more Vanessa!
This movie is a fun ride, and Vanessa is a big part of what makes this fun - where are the special features about the physicality she brings to the movie as well as her style and smooth moves? I love most of The Rock movies and enjoy Statham (also loved the bit he got with the Mini Cooper), but this would not have been nearly as much fun to watch without Vanessa.
The humor and light touch plus fun action, some fresh approaches (including a McLaren instead of another stock Ferrari, if you can say such a thing about a Ferrari) is what makes this.
Also, a fairly believable reason for a more old-fashioned fight made this more interesting.
I'm ready for the next Hobbes and Shaw, and Vanessa.
The Wonderful Ice Cream Suit (1998)
Enjoyable movie - out of the ordinary
I had read a review of this movie otherwise I don't know that I would have ever found it. I brought it home and put it on for my rather critical 16 year old son and joy-loving 17 year old daughter, not knowing what they would think. It was rather late at night and we should have been heading to bed, but I threw this on and we were all caught up in the story. My cynic I think enjoyed it even more than my joy-lover, and I enjoyed both the movie and my kids' reactions to it.
I love these off-beat (so-called because they don't quite follow the Hollywood formulae) fun movies. And what a shock to see Olmos in such an unusual part! He was always so deadly serious in anything I'd seen him in before.
It was a really fun tale and I recommend it!
