Alice Through the Looking Glass (2016): Not a true rendition of the timeless tale but very entertaining – Burton is one of the producers and it shows – great special effects, a busy make–up department and use of garish colours. Mia a good link point for Depp and Helena to do their thing.
Greyfriars Bobby (1960): A solid story but the highlight for me are the period shooting locations.
Thelma and Louise (1990)
Big Daddy (1999): The "comedy" material is juvenile at times. The only real highlight is Steve Buscemi.
Bigamist, The (1953): A very good cast and performances but Edmond O'Brien doesn't come across as the romantic type to me.
Big Red (1962): This kind of family drama Disney does so well. Some good animal training is evident.
Grudge, The (2004): I hadn't watched the original (2003) in quite a while so this was fresh. There are some genuinely scary moments even when they are signaled ahead and expected.
Swiss Army Man (2016): It has a commendably original screenplay and an interesting soundtrack and for these positives it is well worth a try.; DVD $29.95
Transporter 3, The (2008): Jason Statham makes these outings watchable – he's not the typical brain dead action star. Some good stunt work helps as well.
Doll & Em (TV Series) (2014): A mild comedy – the two lead characters are pleasant enough and inoffensive.; DVD ~~$19.95~~ $14.95
