The actor who plays Simon Birch is terrific. It is worthwhile just to see him. 14 months ago


Route9Last Chance Harvey

Well done. Somewhat predictable, but still very cute. 14 months ago


Route9Leatherheads

It was OK. Never thought about the start of professional football. 14 months ago


Route9Clash of the Titans

Great visuals, but otherwise pretty dull. 14 months ago


Route9Wierd Science

I’m not sure how this got on the Netflix list, but I did not see it when it was released and I enjoyed it very much. 14 months ago


Route9Temple Grandin

Terrific movie. Funny, educational, thoughtful, helpful. 14 months ago


Route9Cafe Pesto in Hilo

I ate the best meal. For $23 and another $4 for the happy hour beer. It started with a delicious crab caesar salad, followed by thick strips of calamari that was breaded in coconut and deep fried served with a sweet dipping sauce and a generous swordfish stromboli. Sounds weird? It was delicious. Large chunks of swordfish, basil pesto and dry cheese in a toasty hot bread wrap that was salty and a little crunchy. Interesting. Wish I could go there again, but it is far away. 14 months ago


Route9Hawaii Volcano National Park

Very far. Very worth it. We saw orange lava glowing at the bottom of the crater that opened in 2008 and again along the rim glowing in the distance as it crawls towards the sea. The endless fields of lava rubble are baffling. People are building houses on the rims of the live volcanoes. There is a public warning system for Tsunamis / Lava flow. The ocean view is great since the trees and forests have been buried. 14 months ago


Route9Riding in Cars with Boys

Thoughtful. 14 months ago


Route9The Pelican Brief

Annoying and contrived. Too many big scenes, not enough plot. I was stuck on a plane. I also watched the second half of Valentines Day which was astonishingly bad. It was filled with A list actors playing tiny little parts. 14 months ago


Route9Midnight in Paris

Cute Woody Allen flick. 15 months ago


Route9The Mummy Returns

Great creatures. Stupid plot. 15 months ago


Route9Crazy Stupid Love

I liked it. 15 months ago


Route9Chungking Express

Not sure. The cinematic effects were interesting and the approach was different. The disconnected plots was confusing. 15 months ago

Great story. Recommended. 15 months ago


Route9About a Boy

Very sweet. Not what I expected. Recommended. 15 months ago


Route9Rivers and Tides

My 10 year old told me about Andy Goldsworthy. Beautiful work. Temporary and easy on the environment. 15 months ago


Route9Hot Breakfast

Into a non stick pan goes some liquid, usually milk or stock, some vegetable, today I used shredded zucchini, some oatmeal, because it is so good for fiber and will absorb all of the liquid, some cheese, some spices, stir to hot and soupy, then turn the heat down and stir in two eggs. What would this be called? It is filling and healthy. 16 months ago


Route9Kung Fu Panda 2

Fun. Not deep. Good sight gags. 16 months ago


Route9Beginners

Thoughtful. I liked the talking dog. 16 months ago


Route9The Watchman

Complicated plot. Very violent. Lots of blood. The plot is interesting, but hard to follow unless you’ve read the comic. 16 months ago


Route9One Day

Annoying and depressing. Skip. 16 months ago


Route9Objectified

Interesting. Just the right length. Thought provoking. 16 months ago


Route9Math and Violin

Every night my son plays violin and I help him the entire time, if I am home, which is most of the time. Then we do 10 minutes of math drills and I watch him to every problem, correcting as he progressed and encouraging good handwriting. It is tedious, but I am sure that is he better. 16 months ago


Route9Whale Rider

Ok I guess. I was reminded of growing up in Hawaii. So much effort to keep the language, dance and other traditions. 16 months ago


Route9Ribollita

Onion, carrot, celery, garlic, potato, cabbage, chard, white beans, tomatoes, stock and stale bread. The bread is floated on top of the simmering soup and left for a long time. No stirring! Gently scooped into a bowl and topped with grated cheese. Perfect for winter. 16 months ago


Route9Wonder Boys

Enjoyed. Good cast. 16 months ago


Route9Dazed and Confused

Well executed 70s movie, but not very interesting. 16 months ago
