Reviews

There were many good and bad things about this roast. More good than bad. I agree with some of the other reviews but think some people don't know what is roast is about. Let's separate the good and the bad.

Good

• Tom Brady appears to have a sense of humor
• Kevin Hart is pretty funny but were their timing issues?

• Drew made me laugh. Some of the other football guys were pretty funny.

• Nicki is incredibly funny. Thank god she was there.

• Bill B there was pretty funny and he can take a good joke at his expense.

Meh

• Tom certainly felt some ire with Jeff's jokes. Remember they are just jokes. Don't sign up for a roast if you are going to say "Don't say that again".

• Way too long. I love roasts but geez an actual beef roast cooks faster than this roast.

• This is a tough one. I don't think people should joke about Aaron at all. I know I have heard that everything is okay to joke about if you are a comedian. Here I found it was not funny. But talking with some friends, they found it hilarious
• Was the only reason Kim K was there to make black dick jokes? Having her there (and also she was booed so much) seemed out of place but perhaps that is just me.

I wonder why Lisa Lampanelli was not there. She is amazing at roasting. Where was Anthony Jeselnik? You know Martha Stewart savagely roasted Justin Bieber. She would have been amazing too.

It is scary to know that there are people who would do this to their own children.

The acting is good with Judd Nelson kinda freaking me out because this isn't like any other role I have seen him in. He definitely portrays a man with some sort of mental issues.

I also enjoyed Joely Fisher as the concerned but oblivious mom. I don't think I have seen Stephanie Scott in other movies but she certainly did a great job on such a horrible role. I am sure we will be seeing more of her.

The story is quite difficult to watch as it unfolds.

I should say that you would probably like this if you like "RuPaul's Drag Race". I wanted to watch this because I do enjoy getting to know knowing more about the celebrities that I am watching.

The one thing that I notice is that most of these queens have an amazing talent before they were ever on television.

Getting to see so many drag queens was great both in and out of drag. I like the brutal honesty that I saw. Alaska in particular has made it past all the negativity and is using that in her celebrity.

Some important moments in history. The horrible event in Orlando at Pulse Night Club brought up some deep feelings. It was so nice to see some of the friendships that some of these queens have.

Drag is realness.

I think I might be the only person who enjoyed Kerry Washington here. But that may be because I did not watch Scandal or many other things with her in it.

The cast was superb though. Reese ,of course, excels in almost everything that she does. I wish Joshua Jackson had more screen time.

While all the kids in the show were great, I was really impressive with the Izzie character. As a mom, to hear her mom say some of the things she did, it just broke my heart.

There were so many stories weaved into this show. I look forward to season two!

I think many people read about these in the media and have made an some sort of assessment based on what they heard. The title is somewhat tongue in cheek.

There are many stories out there just waiting to be told so I hope that there is a second series.

Both sides of the stories were told. I found that there was a big focus on the lawyers though.

41 shots was heart breaking. Talk Show Murder was also difficult to watch. The latter is a prime example of ambushing people on nation-wide television all for the sake of ratings.

Christine Baranski is perfect (as per usual). Susan Sarandon and Cheryl Hines were amazing in their roles. The acting of the supporting cast was great.

Christmas can be such a stressful time of the year for many people. You got a glimpse of Ruth's (Christine Baranski) upbringing which really helped to understand her behavior towards Amy. Not a fan of he Isis (Susan Sarandon) character but it helped us to see why Carla is the way she is. As for Kiki, the relationship between her and her mom (Cheryl Hines) was the least toxic or so you thought.

All in all a very funny movie. Any movie that has the legend Wanda Sykes in it, I am going to love. She makes me laugh.

I really enjoyed this movie. The acting by almost all parties was great. Mae Whitman and Robbie Amell had great chemistry together. The film showed what really happens nowadays with social media BOTH good and bad. People can be so nasty when it comes to embarrassing someone on social media. You can see that almost every day.

Allison Janney is also one of the best actresses around. She can do anything from comedy to drama. The addition of Ken Jeung just put the icing on the cake.

Mae's character (The Duff) was at first very upset to find out what she thought other people thought of her. Her mom was the comic relief with all of her mantras and you wondered if she really understood what her daughter was saying.

This movie is light hearted and definitely worth the watch.

It has been a while since I saw a movie that was so overwhelming and brilliantly acted.

For me, I thought Mark Ruffalo was awesome. Seeing that he is not a gay man, his scenes with Matt Bomer must have been difficult. But he is an Academy Award nominated actor so he pulled it off with incredible ease. He was a bit louder than I am used to hearing him and way more confrontational but it was required for this emotional role.

Others that were outstanding were: Julia Roberts (her husband is the cinematographer for this movie), Alfred Molina, the awesome Jim Parsons and Matt Bomer. The last scene in the movie had me crying and thinking.

Thanks HBO for showing this awesome movie. I guess Brad Pitt should be thanked as well :-)

This movie was your typical horror movie but worse. Let's start off with the actors who were chosen for this movie. Are we to accept these people are actually high school students?

Next, let's talk about the music. Music is important to a movie. At times, the music made the dialogue hard to hear.

The scene at the hospital was just strange. If someone is out of it like that, they don't haul them off to the police. I know I am over- analyzing things but sheesh don't directors want people to buy into a movie? Why was the hospital so yellowish-green?

The wife in the movie goes from having normal looking eyes to eyes that have dark circles and back again. Why would that be? As one progresses into possession, I thought you would deteriorate. Guess I have seen to many possessed people.

This is one of my favourite movies of all time. It does not have any of my favourite actors in it but every time it comes on television, I watch it. I also own the movie as well.

I think the relationship with Daniel and Miranda was played quite well. Being a divorced woman, I totally understood the situation the characters were going through. I also enjoyed the dynamics of the children aspect. You could see how much the kids loved their dad.

Pierce Brosnan is simply too yummy in this movie. He is not only the best James Bond but the perfect eye candy in any movie.

There were so many elements of humour in this movie that I appreciate. Of course, what could I expect from Robin Williams? He can switch his humour on and off. He made this movie for me. His ability to make me cry from just a look in his eyes, to laugh without saying a word, and to feel the hurt he was feeling by his body language.

I recommend this movie to anyone. Not just people going through family issues.

I would like to start off with the positives. There are a few: the acting was done well by all involved, the story and some of visuals. Anything Kyra Sedgwick is involved in is generally pretty good. Jeffrey Dean Morgan was good as the struggling dad after a divorce. However, I think the star of the movie was Natasha Calis. Reminded me of a young Linda Blair.

The story was very good and well explained so I understood what was coming up next. I also appreciated the integration of the Jewish faith into the movie as this is critical to the original story. The visuals is where I felt this movie could have shocked more. There were a number of good scenes (the one with the dentist) and the final scene. But the bumps and jumps could have been more integrated into the story earlier. It was one hour into the movie before anything exciting happened. The time was spent on character development which is good but I like a few more "scares".

There were too many unanswered questions at the end of the movie. This is why I rated it the way I did. This is not a bad movie at all. It did make you think and it did spark discussions on the way home from the theater.

First of all, I thought this movie was a comedy when I first saw the commercials for it. Boy, was I wrong!

I read that the movie was about a man with depression but I really was not prepared for the depth of depression that Walter was going through. Depression is a horrible disease and I don't wish it on anyone. It can make you feel unworthy and extremely sad. I applaud Jody Foster for both her acting chops and the way she brought this movie together. I think the way Walter and his oldest son dealt with their issues kept the movie very honest for me. I could see the walls that they put up when they really wanted to get closer.

Mel for me proved that he can do anything. I love a good actor who makes you believe the story. The last 30 minutes of the film were hard to watch but it showed the hurt and uncertainty that one can feel. A good movie to have a discussion about after.

I have never heard of it before but when I saw Andy Serkis's name in it, I knew it would be good. Was it one of the best movies I have even seen? No, but it is a great way to spend 90 minutes.

This movie was quite funny. The interaction between the two brothers was classic sibling rivalry. These guys were a bunch of losers. They can't even plan a kidnapping without arguing. Watching David trying to teach his brother to sound menacing was so funny. Hearing Peter tell the kidnapped his brother's name just about made me fall on the floor! I found this movie entertaining throughout. It had a few gory moments but they added to the story. The music certainly added to the suspense. I would definitely recommend this for a rainy afternoon.
