Happy Tuesday- NOW GET BACK TO WORK!
01/17/2006
Well, it’s back to the grind…
I’ve decided that this blog will be my random thoughts generated during the workweek and the other one at Myspace.com will be my random thoughts during the weekend.
Anyway…
RANDOM THOUGHT #1: Only in Texas can there be a holiday celebrating Martin Luther King, Jr. that falls on the same week as a holiday celebrating Confederate Heroes.
RANDOM THOUGHT #2: Salazar is pronounced ‘Sah-Lazer” here…
POWER HOUR REVIEW: Hours 3 & 4. I missed the first two shows and felt slightly lost watching the 3rd & 4th episodes without seeing them. Also- I think I ought to lower my expectations a bit- not every episode has to be explosive. But it did feel slower and less intense as last season. Mostly because Jack didn’t do any of his trademark moves these two episodes- he spent them mostly hiding or captured. But the dealings at CTU and the drama with the First Lady did pick up the pace a bit and kept you hooked at the screen. Also nice to see the HOT, HOT, HOT Sandrine Holt on the screen.
I a little worried that Sean Astin would have been a bit of stunt casting- but his bits in the 4th episode worked better than expected. Then there is the required cliffhanger…which was cool- but not mind-blowing.
I did not witness the deaths of Palmer & Michelle and they are characters that will indeed be missed. Also nice to see Manny Coto from Enterprise getting work- the 3rd season of Enterprise had a 24-feel to it.
Verdict? Good not great episodes. But good enough to pull me back next week.
3.5 stars out of 5.
MINI REVIEWS:
Superman-Charming, classic and almost timeless (too 70’s and Gene Hackman irritates). The first 45 minutes are perfect and Christopher Reeve will always be Superman. The new movie has a lot to live up too…
5 STARS!
War of the Worlds- Good movie ruined by Tim Robbins and an uninspired ending. At least Spielberg avoids unnecessary sappiness that permeates most of his movies nowadays.
3 Stars
