Watched "Family Switch" last night... sort of a variation of "Freaky Friday" thing... An OK movie... I was just looking for something light to watch late at night...

Watched "Megan Leavey" today... IMO, A very good movie about a troubled girl that joins the Marine Corps and becomes a dog handler... I won't say anything more about the movie, but suffice to say that I cried real tears, not just watering eyeballs. I really enjoyed the movie...

Tried to watch Guillermo del Toro's "Pinocchio" last night and got to the part where the wood puppet was just about to start school and I HAD to shut it off... I just couldn't stand watching it any longer... Thinking back, I can't really say WHAT it was that was making it distasteful to me, but I couldn't watch it any longer...

Just finished watching "True Spirit" about 16 yr old Australian, Jessica Watson, who sailed around the World solo in 2010 leaving Sydney, Australia and returning to the same port of Sydney in 210 days BY HER SELF!!! I loved the scenery and realism...
A true story that I recommend to everyone, young people especially!

Watched "Shrek: Forever After" and enjoyed it as much as the other 'Shrek's' I've seen...

Watched "Moxie" last night... a live-action film about a high school girl dealing with problems at school... Held my attention throughout... some sadness, some humor, some angst... I liked it...
Watched Dune part 2. Now the wait to see if they make more of these! A

Watched "Tall Girl" last night, about, guess what?, the tallest girl in her school. (Just the opposite of what I dealt with in school, being quite short, lol...)
It was alright, but I don't really have an interest in watching "Tall Girl, 2"...

Watched three movies last night... "Confession of an Invisible Girl" was about a high school girl's move to a new school and her problems with fitting in...
Next was "Damsel", About a Princess bride's encounter with a fire-breathing dragon... (and NO.. it wasn't her new husband lol)...
The best one was "Too Young a Hero", a story about a boy who enlisted in the Navy shortly after the Pearl Harbor attack... How he enlisted, his time in service aboard a Navy warship.. Had some parts hard to watch.. This was based on a true story that actually happened... The boy was only 12... His name was Calvin Graham...
Edit: added sailor's name...
