Our Faith In Action®

A good feel-​​​​good movie with a star-​​​​studded cast. Talks about for­give­ness and sec­ond chances in a pos­i­tive way, although all these types of movies tend to be a bit cliche’. Still, it makes for an enter­tain­ing expe­ri­ence with a pos­i­tive message.

Not very impressed with this movie, although in its time I’m sure the book series, “The Adven­tures of Tintin” was very good lit­er­a­ture for boys and prob­a­bly girls too. Its just that this type of lit­er­a­ture seems a bit out of place today as a movie, or maybe it was just the way it was […]

Inspir­ing story of a horse and a young man as they deal with hard­ship and tragedy. Very good fam­ily val­ues, espe­cially about learn­ing to under­stand the “demons” that haunt our par­ents and dis­cov­er­ing the quiet hero­ism of our par­ents in spite of their weak­nesses and lim­i­ta­tions. The boy’s father suf­fers from occa­sional alco­holism and general […]

I really rec­om­mend this movie. I thought it would be a very nice fam­ily com­edy, which would be good enough in itself, but it is much more than that. It is a beau­ti­ful movie about loss and find­ing a way to move on. Matt Damon and the other actors and actresses (includ­ing new teen star […]

Tom Cruise and friends make another excit­ing install­ment of the Mis­sion Impos­si­ble series. As usual, the movie has incred­i­ble chase scenes, sus­pense, explo­sions, and adven­ture that all make a really excit­ing expe­ri­ence. An evil sci­en­tist wants to start a nuclear war, and the Mis­sion Impos­si­ble team is framed as the ones who are guilty. They […]

Robert Downey Jr. is as enter­tain­ing as ever play­ing the hyper­in­tel­li­gent, hyper­ac­tive hero to per­fec­tion in this sec­ond install­ment of the Sher­locke Holmes adap­ta­tion. Plenty of action, explo­sions, intrigue, humor, and adven­ture to keep you going the length of the movie. The on-​​​​going ban­ter about the pros and cons of mar­riage (Dr. Wat­son is getting […]

Oh, what joy! The Mup­pets are back! For us old guys who grew up watch­ing the mup­pets, it’s like life is worth liv­ing again! They are just as hilar­i­ous as always, although the dance scene with humans at the begin­ning of the movie is not that great… Still, if you can sit through that part […]

Fun car­toon movie, with lots of hilar­i­ous danc­ing and a mes­sage about fam­ily and about find­ing your value as a per­son (well, pen­guin, really, but it’s meant as a les­son for human beings…). I liked Arthur Christ­mas bet­ter than Happy Feet 2, but maybe it’s just me. Still, it’s fun.

Mar­tin Scorzese is always an amaz­ing movie maker. This is his first try at a story for chil­dren, although in the past he has done movies for adults about chil­dren (Empire of the Sun, if I am not mis­taken). Teenagers will like this movie, not just chil­dren. It’s about a boy who lives alone in […]
