W

I admit. I’m not very good when it comes to movies. My knowledge is very limited (exept that I know what I usually like and don’t like), I’m a bad movie watcher as I tend to fall asleep half way through, and I tend to chose a movie that I’ve seen over a new one. I know, that’s like commiting movie suicide. I’ll never see something new if I don’t leave the oldies behind.
Two new movies that really interest me now, though, is the new James Bond movie and “W”, the movie about George W. Bush. It is a chronicle about the life and presidency of who’s soon to be former president Bush. From what I’ve heard, the movie is not a Bush-hate fest as much as an attempt to show Bush as a simple man with several human foibles, which many people find very funny.
Brolin is said to do a great job playign Bush and he manages to turn Bush from a dufus to a schmuck, that finds out too late that he is in over his head. The movie makes you not laugh at Bush the man but at the entire Bush saga. From what I’ve heard, the role of Laura Bush is predictalbe and boaring, but the role of Rice is apparently both very gutsy and very smart. I can’t wait to see this movie, and luckily it’s opening today so I’ll try to see it this weekend.
The Bond movie will be talket about when it gets closer.
That’s it for now, folks!
