Movie Reviews D

13 going on 30 (IMDB Wikipedia)

A non-political comedy but a good one.

I give it 3 stars out of 5.

Bulletproof (IMDB Wikipedia)

Another non-political comedy, but a really good one.

I give it 5 stars out of 5.

The Candidate (IMDB Wikipedia)

This about a fictional candidate for Senate in 1972. He’s inconsistently progressive. He criticizes the Teamsters union for attacking the United Farm Workers. He’s initially in favor of busing for desegregation. I was thinking about it recently and I decided that busing was a good way to desegregate schools.

I give it 2 stars out of five.

Ishtar (IMDB Wikipedia)

It’s more of a comedy than a serious drama or action film but it’s kind of critical of US foreign policy in the Arab world; although it’s about a made-up country.

I give it 3 stars out of 5.

Me and Earl and the Dying Girl (IMDB Wikipedia)

A non-political movie that’s sort of a cross between a comedy and drama. 

UPDATE 5/5/21 I give it three stars out of five.
