Seen any good movies lately?

Shopgirlove is on a real loosing streak...Duplicity was sheer agony; she, her mam, and several of the other tortured souls in the theater were actually groaning. If you can't tell your cinematic tale in ninety minutes, do us all a favor and go back to theater!  Flashbacks!  Split screens!  Gimmick after gimmick!  And WHAT is wrong with Julia Roberts?  Shopgirlove doesn't always expect good choices from Clive Owen, but the American beauty can usually pick a good script...Thank goodness for DVDs!  Shopgirlove got War, Inc and loved it!  It's a strange sort of modern Dr. Strangelove-esque damnation of American foreign policy.  Or the lack thereof.  Ben Kingsly is a truly creepy man-behind-the-curtain and Hilary Duff was a revelation with an edgy, almost dangerous performance.  The Cusacks never fail, of course.  Oddly, Marisa Tomei struggled a little.  (In her defense, she has the burden of playing the only straight character in a film full of twitchy maniacs.  No wonder her role dampens things a tad.)

In other news, Shopgirlove has been trying out Chrome.  Google does it again!  It's fast, elegant, and versatile...a product Shopgirlove is happy to endorse!
