MOVIE MONDAY

Mark and I went to see Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit (IMDb) a few weeks ago. I thought it was pretty good. Of course Chris Pine isn't bad to look at and Kevin Costner isn't bad either! I love to go see love stories but I also love a good action movie.....
"Jack Ryan, as a young covert CIA analyst, uncovers a Russian plot to crash the U.S. economy with a terrorist attack."


I went to see Tyler Perry's The Single Moms Club (IMDb) two weeks ago. Needed to get out of the house and his movies usually have a meaningful story behind them. I did enjoy this movie and all the ladies in the cast were great! 
"When five struggling single moms put aside their differences to form a support group, they find inspiration and laughter in their new sisterhood, and help each other overcome the obstacles that stand in their way."


Mark came home early from his travels the other week so we headed out to show to see 3 Days to Kill (IMDb). This was a good movie. Of course there is a lot of killing going on but we did enjoy all the action! Kevin Costner was really good in this role.
"A dying CIA agent trying to reconnect with his estranged daughter is offered an experimental drug that could save his life in exchange for one last assignment."


Last Wednesday I went to see Disney's Muppets Most Wanted (IMDb) which was really a cute movie. I thoroughly enjoyed it! Besides the stars that are listed there were a lot of great cameos too. 
"While on a grand world tour, The Muppets find themselves wrapped into an European jewel-heist caper headed by a Kermit the Frog look-alike and his dastardly sidekick."


I did a double feature that day and also saw God's Not Dead (IMDb). This movie was very good and I'm glad I went to see it. 
"College student Josh Wheaton's faith is challenged by his philosophy professor, who believes God does not exist."


Hope you all have a wonderful week.

You may remember that we don't go to the movies very often (we prefer to watch them on DVD), but we did go see God's Not Dead Saturday evening. I do want to see the Jack Ryan movie ... I hadn't heard about 3 Days to Kill. Our preference is a good (but not too violent) action movie.

Hi Debby, You've been busy and sounds like you have enjoyed some good movies. Hope the week ahead is a nice one.

Ginny Marie said...

Wow, Kevin Costner's been busy! I want to see God's Not Dead, too, and I also want to take the girls to see the Muppet Movie! :)

Hi Debby! Just when I think we won't see much of Kevin Costner anymore, there he is again! I was hooked when I saw "Silverado"...a great movie with a wonderful cast; I also liked "Message in a Bottle", but not when he drowned at the end. But I've always been a fan of his.

I wouldn't mind seeing the one about single moms, since it's a life I now well!

Kevin Costner seems to be getting some interesting acting roles these days! I did hear the Muppet movie was supposed to be cute. I always enjoy reading your review of movies, Debby; I do remember them for down the line when we rent a movie.

I am wanting to see the Tyler Perry movie. Have to get some girlfriends together to go see this one. We saw God's Not Dead this past week and I loved it.

Mara said...

I hope to see the Muppets soon, but it's not out yet over here.

It sounds like we have a similar taste in movies. I like my romantic stories, but a good action film is great as well. In fact, only last night I saw RED (with Bruce Willis). Loved it!

We are going to see God's Not Dead, this weekend. Thank you for the reviews!

Nancy Face said...

We really enjoyed Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit! VERY exciting!

We'll be seeing God's Not Dead on my hubby's birthday this week, and we'd also like to see Muppets Most Wanted!

Hi Debby, Many of these movies we haven't seen and I appreciate your reviews. We did see 3 Day To Kill and found it intriguing and Kevin Costner did a great job!
The next movie we see will probably be on the plane to Hawaii. Hope you have a great afternoon.
Hugs,
Noreen

I have plans to see "God's Not Dead" on Thurs. Thinking of seeing "Noah" tomorrow...we'll see how the day goes. Glad you enjoyed them all. I was a little disappointed in the "Single Mom's Club"...thought it would be funnier and, that day, I needed a laugh! :-)

Mary said...

I've heard that God's Not Dead is pretty good. Sadly, I haven't heard of a couple of those movies...I'm soooo out of the loop!

Alexis AKA MOM said...

I don't get out much but I so will make it to the Muppet's with the boys :).

I've been trying so hard for my women's group to go to see God's Not Dead. I hope I can get them all out soon, I can't wait to see it!

bp said...

I want to see God's Not Dead. I've heard it's great.

Chatty Crone said...

That movie God is not Dead - was one of the best movies ever - of course I am partial. I want to buy it when it comes out.

Kristie said...

Sounds like you got to see some great movies! We rarely go out to the movies, but they're all ones I'd like to see when they're on DVD! :-)
