Sylvie’s Love (2020)

From Amazon Prime, Sylvie’s Love hit all the right notes for us with beautiful love, cute children, great music and a story full of good people doing their best at life and love. This movie introduced us to former NFL star Nnamdi Asomugha as Robert and Tessa Thompson as Sylvie, who has been in someContinue reading “Sylvie’s Love (2020)”

The Secret: Dare To Dream (2020)

This movie was…unexpectedly enjoyable. We didn’t really know what to think about a movie produced from The Secret organization, but Katie Holmes was pretty good as a single mom trying to hold things together, the children really make the movie fun and lovable, and the underlying “you can do anything you believe in” message reallyContinue reading “The Secret: Dare To Dream (2020)”

Stargirl (2020)

Grace VanderWaal is Stargirl, and she inspired the characters and the audience to dream big, do better, and find ourselves in this cute teenage story. From the perspective of a introverted “Michael Cera” type teenager, we see Stargirl enter public schools for the first time and immediately change the course of life in this smallContinue reading “Stargirl (2020)”

Superintelligence (2020)

An entity that began as a learning toy has taken control of the world’s technology and threatens the end of humanity unless a successful rom-com emerges. Melissa McCarthy was hilarious and the superintelligence uses James Cordon’s voice and likeness to add to the ridiculous situations. Funny and light, the movie follows the rom-con script, itContinue reading “Superintelligence (2020)”

I Am Woman (2019)

We first saw the teaser on Netflix for I Am Woman a few months ago and instantly added it to our list, but it was relegated due to the holidays and a few other series we had queued up. Knowing nothing about Helen Reddy before going in, we were instantly intrigued and hooked on theContinue reading “I Am Woman (2019)”

Dash & Lily (2020)

A sweet series on Netflix featuring a scavenger hunt love story with all the typical rom com ingredients, it has many good feels through the first half, and wraps things up nicely. If this were a movie, the sad parts would have been forgotten quickly, but with this episodic format we went to bed afterContinue reading “Dash & Lily (2020)”

Happiest Season

Well on the surface this movie barely qualifies as feel good, but after we talked a bit we realized that the movie lives in the angst of its characters, and only relents for the last few minutes. Having spent the last two weeks watching Schitt’s Creek seasons 3-5, we were elated to see “David” inContinue reading “Happiest Season”

Tortilla Soup

Hungry for more family love and Mexican food! Each main character goes through their struggles and surprises the family with a major life decision, and while each seems to be going away, they come back to each other in the end, as better and more complete people. The film did not spare the characters fromContinue reading “Tortilla Soup”

Schitt’s Creek Season 1 Episodes 1-6

We started watching Schitt’s Creek on Netflix after we heard about all the awards that they won and how Annie Murphy said the show stands for “love and kindness and inclusivity and acceptance” . While we had seen the show in the listings and seen how popular it was, we never gave a thought toContinue reading “Schitt’s Creek Season 1 Episodes 1-6”
