    A dad and killer

    Bossed around by a hot chick

    Dumb but fun action

    Guy from “Lost”? Creepy

    Tyler Perry – he can act!

    So where’s the sequel?

    Cops, murder, rape, data discs

    A fine mess for Fiennes

     

    Pride (2014)

    In Thatcher’s beastly Britain

    Wonderful friendships

    Protests need clear goals,

    Strategies, tactics, leaders

    Thor sets out to prove

    Islanders came from Peru

    — all on one big raft

    as time marches on
