'Midnight in Paris' was just Okay with me, I'm not a big Owen Wilson fan. On the otherhand, I loved 'Blue Jasmine' and Cate Blanchett was great and my wife liked it even more. It was neat seeing comedians like Andrew Dice Clay and Lewis CK pull off dramatic roles and even though Alec Baldwin is probably a jerk, he's a really good actor. See Glengary Glen Ross if you want to see Alec Baldwin at his best. We had just watched 'Match Point' by Woody for about the fifth time and was wanting to see something else by him. 'Match Point' is very clever and very good, it stars Scarlet Johansson and the English actor Jonathan Rhys Meyers that's on that new NBC series Dracula. Also Vicki Christina Barcelona is another good Woody Allen film of recent.
The last four movies that we've gone to the theater to see were all very good, Blue Jamine, Prisoners, Gravity in 3D and Captain Phillips, I highly recommend any of them.
