To “Before the Devil Knows You’re Dead” with Philip Seymour Hoffman and Ethan Hawke. Wow, I was really looking forward to this one because I love both actors and the plot looked original and gritty. These two brothers (Hawke and Hoffman) are both in financial trouble (different issues) and they decide to rob their parent’s jewelry business…and then it goes from there. The movie is frustrating because it keeps flasing back to- “4 days before the robbery”, “1 day before” and then from character to character. Nothing makes sense with the flashbacks and in fact they just make the idea/plot totally forced.

to “21”. I saw it late last night and this was so worth waiting for. I read the book and loved that this was a true story. I love cards, I have 3 brothers who love card games and gambling in general. It is such a great film and definitely worth seeing AT the theater.

To “Gone Baby Gone”! It was exciting and I thought Casey Affleck was great, he was so believable.I had no idea what would happen in the end and debated the outcome with 4 or 5 people at work. Most of my peers were against the decision made by Affleck’s character, but I agreed with it.
