Day Three Recap Memorial Day Weekend Movie Marathon

 Alrighty, here's the final installment from the movie marathon weekend. I only added two more movies on that Sunday since I was kind of burnt out by that afternoon. Here we go...

Casino Royale: The idea of Daniel Craig as James Bond never really thrilled me. I mean a blond Bond? The horror! Not that I dislike Daniel Craig at all. I actually like him. Just never thought of him as the James Bond type. Additionally I've never been much of James Bond fan (although I say Sean Connery and Pierce Brosnan were the two best). The movie was alright but far too long for my taste. Overall score: C+.

In Bruges: Although it has some funny quotes and parts of it totally amused me I think generally speaking this movie is overrated. I'm not saying it's bad. Maybe, like some other films, it needs to be seen more than once to really appreciate it. Can't say I'm a big fan of Colin Farrell, with the exception of his role in Horrible Bosses. Overall rating: C.

That's it for now. About to watch the next movie on the list and I may try to watch a few tomorrow as well.

Wrapping Up 2023's Selections from the Bucket List

 As always - my apologies for not updating sooner. I haven't had as much time to watch movies as I would like. And I hate doing entries ...
