DON'T GET STUNG BY THIS BEE

Movie: Bee Movie
Jan's Rating: 5
Time: 90 Minutes

Jan's Opinion: It was a cute movie for little kids. My 9 year-old grandson liked it but said it wasn't the best movie he's ever seen. Personally, I had trouble staying awake, a little too boring for me.

You Choose the Ending

Movie: Michael Clayton
Jan's Rating: 7
Time: 119 Minutes

Jan's Opinion: This movie is about killers who stalk a burned out corporate lawyer (George Clooney) who is in the middle of a billion-dollar lawsuit including a high-powered New York law firm. I like movies that have an ending and this one left you with questions in your mind. I thought it was a good movie and the acting was very good, but found it hard to follow. On the other hand, my husband's take on the movie is that the storyline has power but it has been done before in other movies. He said it kept his attention for the full two hours. The only thing that kept my attention for the two hours was watching George Clooney! He's hot! We both think George Clooney will minimally be up for an Oscar as best actor - not sure about the movie.
