I watched "Mistaken for Strangers," which is a documentary about The National that turns out not be a documentary about The National at all. It's really this meta thing that's sort of more about making a documentary and the struggle of the younger Berninger brother to achieve something relative to his more famous older brother. I really enjoyed it.

Rented Joe on iTunes last night. It was pretty good. Best performance by Nicolas Cage I have seen in a very long time. Tye Sheridan was excellent too. Don't expect to be uplifted by it, but I would recommend it.Comment

Saw this last night with my wife and daughter, and really enjoyed it. I think the script is good and the story is well-told. Like all movies it requires some suspension of disbelief, but it was kind of like "Gravity" --- mainly a fun ride. I was engaged throughout the movie. I'm a little surprised it hasn't done better, but not everyone likes a sports movie. It will do well in the online/DVD market.Originally posted by RC Vikings View Post“There is a great deal of difference in believing something still, and believing it again.”

I also think a lot of people are disenchanted with Kevin Costner. The reason I haven't had any interest in seeing it is that I dislike most if what he has done recently. Is he good in the role?Originally posted by LA Ute View Post
Also, I'm not sure how I am supposed to get excited about a movie about the behind-the-scenes process of the Brown's draft day, a franchise that hasn't done anything remarkable on the field for as long as I have been following the NFL. Are we supposed to suspend belief enough to accept that made an amazing, franchise-changing draft pick?Comment

I think that has to with the fact that Costner is a terrible actor.Originally posted by UVACoug View Post"...you pointy-headed autopsy nerd. Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."
