Your Weekend Movie Guide for November 2022

 

Ah, this warms my heart so.   Back in the day when a big holiday movie was...well...a big holiday movie.   And I remember seeing this one at the Yonkers Central Plaza theater listed in the ad.

As we head into the season of cinema going, what cinema are you going to...if any?  You know the monthly drill, gang.   I'll comb through the newspapers and let you know what might be worth your time...or not.  

As for me, I'd love to visit the Central Plaza again...but alas, it is now a Party City.

Wakanda Forever:   Given how much I hated the Black Panther movie, this is Wakanda Never.

Triangle of Sadness:   Blog review coming.   This was the Best Picture at the last Cannes Film Festival.   Weird but compelling.

The Estate:   Some family drama with Kathleen Turner and Toni Collette.   What caught my eye?   Producer: Sarah Jessica Parker.

Banshees of Inisherin:   It's in English, but they speak Irish.   That means you still need subtitles.

Lyle, Lyle Crocodile:   For kids.  I hope.

Black Adam:   And I bet Eve is White.

Armageddon Time:  A Jewish family in 1980s Queens with Anne Hathaway, Anthony Hopkins, Jeremy Strong, and hopefully Mookie Wilson.

Smile:  Fun and games in a psyche ward.

One Piece Film Red:   Looks like some creepy anime to me.

Till:  Emmett Till's mom looks for justice.   Similar to a dozen other movies out in the past year.

Tar:   Cate Blanchett as music icon Lydia Tar.   Who is?

Call Jane:  Elizabeth Banks as a 60s housewife looking for an abortion.   Similar to the other dozen movies out in the past year.

Prey for the Devil:   A female exorcist.  Well, they want equality.

The Fabelmans:   Oscar buzz for Steven Spielberg as he tells the story about his childhood.

50 Minutes in the Bunker with the President of the US:   Three reporters are locked up with a paranoid POTUS when war breaks out.   Is this a documentary?

Prophet:   About some Cardinal.   Not the retiring Albert Pujols.

Poker Face:  Russell Crowe plays poker.   A fly walking up a curtain.

Christmas With You:   Looks like a Hallmark movie that got lost at the film distributor.

Bad Axe:  A documentary about an Asian-American family trying to keep their restaurant open during COVID.   This probably doesn't end well.

Lamborghini-The Man Behind the Legend:  Guess.

The Inspection:   A military don't ask/don't tell story but with a Black soldier.

The Menu:  A black comedy about an exclusive restaurant.  I'm thinking one scene on food poisoning alone.

She Said:   The two New York Times reporters who broke the Harvey Weinstein story.   What Spotlight was to pedophilia, this movie will be to sexual harassment.

Dinner last night:  Had a late lunch so just a salad.
