Pete's Dragon (2016)
Great Movie!
This was a great movie and I don't rate 10's easily. I was most impressed by the ending, often a problem child for many script writers. This ending wrapped up every loose end neatly and wonderfully! Pete and the Dragon 2016 was an unexpectedly touching and fun movie to watch. The acting was good, the plot took a few unexpected turns, and it was nice to watch a really good film without the violence and action that are taking up 75%+ of movie time in films these days. Robert Redford displayed his usual gentle form of fine acting, but this movie was not my usual favorite type of movie that is based on characterizations. Instead I just enjoyed the fantasy centered around a dragon named Elliot. What fun! Just relax and enjoy!
Listen to Your Heart (2010)
One of my all time favorites!
Listen to your heart is now one of my all-time favorite movies. I have never written one of these reviews before, but this one seems to demand it. I appreciate movies that are more than they appear on the surface and deeper than the acting or action. This movie doesn't seem that unusual until you work through the last 30 minutes and begin to realize what the true message is. Remarkable. This is a movie you must WATCH, not just let it play on as you are doing something else. The amazing acting, the wonderful story that at first seems so predictable, and the underlying progression of thought work together to create a very special experience. If you truly "get it", this movie will change how YOU live your life.
