Bifocal Review: The Drop by “Ageless1der” Barbara Rich & The Other Guy (BR): I just wanted to get a break from the intense heat and cool down in the theater. I was pleasantly surprised. Tom Hardy and Noomi Rapace are well cast in this film. Tom Hardy, especially impressed me with his quiet yet powerful delivery, very […]
Bifocal Review: And So It Goes by Ageless1der Barbara Rich and The Other Guy (BR): And So It Goes was a senior version of When Harry Met Sally, only not as good. It was amusing and entertaining (to some degree) and very predictable. Other than being directed by Rob Reiner, and having Michael Douglas and Dianne Keaton […]
Bifocal Review: Godzilla The Movie 2014 by Ageless1der Barbara Rich & The Other Guy (OG) Barbara refused to see this remake/update of the King Of Monsters story since she never saw the original and generally doesn’t respond well to science fiction. So, since a twelve-year-old boy lives in all grown men, no matter how old, I asked my […]
Bifocal Review: Jersey Boys The Movie (BR) I went into Jersey Boys The Movie, expecting to be disappointed because of the reviews I’d read. I feel very close to this story, because I grew up in the same neighborhood, at the same time. My brother was in a band, which Tommy Divito and Joe Pesci […]
The Other Woman Bifocal Reviews by Ageless1der Barbara Rich & The Other Guy (BR) I can make this brief. The Other Woman was totally a chick flick, a no-brainer that I saw with my daughter for a girls-night-out. It is not for the men-folk. In fact, there was only one man-folk in the theater at the time we watched this […]
Who Said That? Part One Who Said That? Part Two Who Said That? Rules of the Game Below is a special presentation of BIFOCALS (with Ageless1der Barbara Rich and The Other Guy). Now that we think of it, ALL presentations of BIFOCALS are special, but this one was created with the viewer in mind. Barbara created […]
Bifocal Review: Belle Based on the Inspiring True Story (BR): This is the kind of movie that I usually enjoy, a Downton Abby feel. In fact, the character of Aunt Mary, was played by one of Downton’s own. However, this one left the impression of being too long, because there were points where it just […]
A Million Ways To Die In The West A Man’s Movie A Million Ways to Die In The West–Directed (and partial produced) by Seth MacFarlane/ starring Seth MacFarlane, Charlize Theron, Liam Neeson, Amanda Seyfried, Neil Patrick Harris and a host of cameo-stars/written by Seth MacFarlane/116 minutes/ rated R Bifocal Reviews by Ageless1der Barbara Rich & […]
Noah Movie 2014 (BR) I call Noah, Noah and the Lord of the Rings. I don’t know if director/writer Aronofsky could make up his mind, which way he wanted to go. Was this speculative fantasy, or book-to-screen Biblical? It’s clear to see that he put his own spin on it, and there’s nothing wrong with that. […]
