She’s trapped in her life and miserable. She thinks she’s losing her mind. Is the multiverse real? Or is she ready to check into the padded room?

Everything Everywhere All At Once |  2022

Blurb
Top notch film that has everything. Comedy, Action, Multiverse, and Michelle Yeoh. Amazing camera work, writing and directing, costumes, sets, action sequences, and the flavor of each reality that pulls you in the story of each segment. This is the film to see! Try for a theater visit first. Lots of popcorn and your favorite pop!

The press never thought he was good enough to be Bond…until they saw him in action on the big screen!

Being James Bond |  2021

Blurb
Bond…James Bond. Even Daniel Craig got flustered preparing to say those words on screen. This short documentary is interesting and entertaining. From the interviews with Craig and the producers to the archival behind the scenes footage to the bad press and then great press. Craig was Bond for a 15 year span and we will miss his portrayal in the future films. Who is your favorite Bond??? Martini’s for this viewing!

Are they only BFFs? Maybe. Does he come from magic and superheroes? Maybe. Will they save the world and have a blast? Definitely!

Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings |  2021

Blurb
I’ve seen Shang-Chi & LOTR three times now. Once in the theater (Amazing on the big screen) and twice on Disney+. The film hits all the high notes - writing, directing, acting, comedy, martial arts, action, costumes, sets, camera work, props, and VFX. This film brings joy with each viewing and glimpses into new layers each time. Watch it on the biggest screen possible with an appetizer spread and champagne!

Dune |  2021

Blurb
Two hours and 45 minutes should feel very long in pandemic theater viewing. Delta still rages and this was the film I was willing to go to the theater for. Part 1 is beautiful. The visuals, costumes, sets, camera work, and acting are all top notch. Knowing the story is helpful as Dune is Game of Thrones huge packed into almost three hours. Hoping we get to see Part 2 as soon as possible. If you are a fan of the 1984 version (I mean it’s got Sting!) you will not be disappointed by the remake. I will watch this again on streaming after I see Dune 1984 again. Sake and Sushi feel appropriate for the visually feast of this movie!
