Last five movies watched

"Willow" was a rewatch. I borrowed the novelisation from RS in senior high (he'd gotten it from his local library). Then I saw it at the cinema. Then again on VHS, lent to me by JH. Then again when it first hit DVD. Even played the Capcom arcade game. For all that, though, it isn't great! :-)

"The Mars Generation" felt very familiar in places. I'd either caught some before or seen a doco about Space Camp covering a lot of the same ground.

Pick of the bunch: It's easy to be put off by the hype, but "Soul" is a work of art and a true delight. I cried happy tears. If you'd rather more impactful drama, go with "Working Woman". While there've been a string of flicks about older men abusing their power over young women in the workplace, this one is done particularly well and the Israeli setting, erm, sets it apart. Terrific performances.
