Watching the old movie channel I saw "Erin Brockovich". Like some movies, it has a few great lines:

"But how will you get past security?"

"They're called 'boobs'."

And a great ending, with the splendid Albert Finney. What a great talent, sadly overlooked. He's the sort of actor who hides all his hard work. It appears seamless, easy, effortless.

There was a 1999 monster/horror flick called Lake Placid,
 

How did I ever miss this post? At a critical moment in this movie, Oliver Platt tells Meredith Salenger, who is wearing a tight deputy sheriff's blouse, something like, "You have great tits!"

And she pauses, her smile blossoms, and she says, "Thanks!"

Borrowing a line from sightings critics: "pic or it didn't happen!" ;)

Couldn't find that line, but here's a good one if you wait to the very end. And Betty White to boot:

Ex Machina was really good. It's nice to see a sci-fi movie that's not about CGI superheros punching each other.

Agreed. The ending was good also and not what I expected.

Attack the Block (UK, 2011)

In which alien "gorilla wolves" attack a housing project in South London..... Not as much comedy or social commentary as some reviewers say, but it's still a tightly-paced action-SF movie.

The ground is deep with fallen leaves and nuts of White and Red Oak, and of Beech, that line and fill the footprints and the ruts which all along the wooded pathway reach. First claim, of course, to chipmunk and to squirrel for bleak mid-Winter sustenance belongs, as all around old leaves descend and twirl about, through feathered autumn songs.

I am looking forward to Pawn Sacrifice which opens and the end of the week. An exercise in psychopaths using a paranoid.

I think then you might enjoy Disney/Pixar Inside Out. Also The Minions for goofy humor. These movies remind me why I always enjoyed the old Warner Brothers cartoons ( Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Elmer Fudd, Foghorn Leghorn, Sylvester, Tweety Bird and others ) because much of the humor is actually directed at adults while the slapstick kept the k1ds happy. My $0.02.  :)

It's only in the budget cinemas now, and not many of those: Tomorrowland. I think you'll love it if you're a baby-boomer. I'm going to see it again today . . . for the fourth time.

I haven't been such a fan since "Raiders" first came out.

Two movies I highly recommend for people to see are The Martian with Matt Damon and The Walk, the story of Phillipe Petit who walked a wire he strung out between the towers of the World Trade Center in New York back in 1974.
