‘A Star is Born’ Movie Review

This movie has been re-invented a few times over the decades with this being my first time seeing one of them. The acting is solid; the casting is solid; the chemistry is solid. I’m sure there will be awards nominations. The storyline is a bit predictable yet it’s engaging and Bradley does a great job as does Lady Gaga. Definitely worth checking out. I saw the movie in Dolby and it was great.

‘Chi-Raq’ Movie Review

I haven’t liked or enjoyed a Spike Lee film in many years. I was so leery to see this movie but I must say the premise of the storyline and the message makes this a movie of Spike’s that I’ve enjoyed in a long time (believe it or not). Now, there’s so much sex and vulgar language that you may not be able to focus of the message. A lot of the dialogue is spoken in “riddle form” so it helped me to focus on the words and the message. A great ensemble cast with Nick Cannon doing a pretty good job; Jennifer Hudson has a small role yet most of it she spends crying about a tragedy; John Cusack also has a good performance. Quite controversial referring to Chicago as an “Iraq” type land yet the statistics stand for themselves.
