| A Walk to Remember | 62 | A nice story. It starts as if it will be a typical teen romantic comedy. It takes a nice dramatic turn. |
| Amistad | 83 | Excellent historical drama. All adults should know the parts of our history represented here, and the characters make it real. |
| Chocolat | 84 | A sweet fantasy. A creamy fable. A luscious tale. Judi Dench can be so many different characters, and all well. I want to see more of Juliette Binoche. Alfred Molina’s role clearly led to his role in “The Da Vinci Code.” The chocolate creations made my mouth water. I will own this. If only to look at the tantalizing candy. |
| Negotiator (The) | 70 | Definitely worth seeing, with a mystery that’s intriguing, and once of Spacey’s typical excellent performances. Just get past the action of the main character that seems so out of character – that starts the main action. |
| Pirates of the | 80 | Originally reviewed long ago. Still more complicated and less humorous than its predecessors, but exciting and full of worthy effects. |
| Lord of the Rings: Return of the King | 100 | What can I say? Probably the best film (series) ever. The achievement is as magnificent as the story. I’m so glad technology exists to do this right, and that Peter Jackson and his team were so dedicated to the vision. And it’s a great Sunday evening movie. Dive in, get immersed in the world. Enjoy. |
The Ideas, Opinions and Musings of Steve Will. For years, I posted every weekday. That stopped quite a while ago, but lately I've been feeling like starting again, though not with the same regularity. I expect my most frequent topics will be movies, TV, and games, but what really started me up again was planning for retirement. I have old posts on learning. Oh, and I used to share photos. Welcome, and enjoy!
