The Magnificent Seven Ride (1972)

Entertainment =

Brutish and adolescent without any of the charm of the original Magnificent Seven, but at least it is more creative than Return of the Magnificent Seven and Guns of the Magnificent Seven.

Rated PG

Witty, nostalgic, & fun.

Rated PG-13

Man Of The Year (2006)

Entertainment =

This movie never really commits to being a thriller, being a comedy, or being the conscience of democracy, but it does a pretty good job of straddling the fence.

Rated PG-13

Man Of La Mancha (1973)

I wanted to like this more than I did, however, as Sancho Panza would say, my eyes didn’t create this movie (world) they only see it.

Rated PG

Much Ado About Nothing (1993)

Entertainment =

Definitely something to ado about.

Rated PG-13 (Beware of bare bottoms.)




I understand that there is a long tradition of presenting portions of the play as burlesque, but what is the deal with Dogberrry and Verges riding the Monty Pythonesque pretend horses?


Read the play..

A nice quiet adventure story for young children, that provoked about a thousand questions from my five-year old and two-year old.
