Spider-man 2 – W2
Second watching. Main post is here.
Genre: Action, Science FictionMy Comments: √ 04/26/2023, our place in Niagara with NS. Very good story line, has feeling. 3.5 star.. The three of us wanted to watch through the entire Spiderman series while NS is in town. We only got to the first two this Spring of 2023. This is a beautifully crafted superhero film. I again conclude: it is so much better than its predecessor. Enjoyment rating: 4 star. Original review here.

Second watching. Main post is here.
Genre: Action, Science FictionMy Comments: √ 03-26-2023 at our place in Niagara (PS, HS, NS). The three of us wanted to watch through the entire Spiderman series while NS is in town. We only got to the first two this Spring of 2023. It was fun. This movie is excellent in many ways. Complex and interesting story, well made production. Green Goblin villain a bit too intense for me. 3.5 star. Original review here.

The Bourne Identity
2002, 119 min
Genre: Action, Thriller
IMDB Rating: 7.9
Clean Rating: 3
Watched It On: DVDUPDATED MARCH 10, 2024 | ORIGINAL REVIEW MAY 1, 2020
Our Comments: This is a well-made movie and it holds up after all these years. The movie is full of suspense, action, and drama. The character development is top-notch. The story is emotionally riveting and it makes you root for Jason Bourne. Although he was a trained assassin, essentially brainwashed by the government. Now in his state of amnesia, he’s basically a good guy that is thrust into all kinds of mayhem by a super-secret department of the CIA who now want to get rid of him. You want him to succeed. Enjoyment Rating: 4.
Clean Review
The frequent strong language and the violence make this movie unsuitable for children and young teens. For adults, we would agree that it deserves some leeway because of its other merits. Discerning adults can make a choice here. With these provisos, this is one of the finest action movies you’ll experience. Note: the sexual side of things is not much of a problem. Nothing graphic.
CLEAN RATING: Clean 3 = Average for a Mainstream Film (several moral issues; watch at your discretion)
Dove Review: Not Dove approved.

Spider-Man (2002)
2002, 121 min

IMDB Rating: 7.3
Clean Rating: 3
Watched It On: NetflixSaw it again on March 26, 2023 (PS, HS, NS)
My Comments: Having grown up with Spider-Man comics, I really enjoyed how the movie makers brought this to life. Quite true to the original story. The film has lots of action and adventure. I liked the first half of it better than the latter. The violence was a too gratuitous and brutal at times in the second half of the movie. I also didn’t like how evil they made The Green Goblin. In the comic he was much more fantasy; this was a bit too realistic. I also didn’t like the witch doctor masks and a seemingly demonic entity speaking to, and goading Mr Osborn in his mansion (The Green Goblin’s sane other side). I’m not in a hurry to recommend this movie, but if you are a Spider-Man fan, and you look forward to watching the second, then this could be the prequel for you. Spider-Man 2 is an excellent flick, with virtually none of these issues. Check out that review. ENJOYMENT RATING: I give it 3.5 stars.
Dove Review: A few moments in the climatic battle may be more graphic than necessary as Spiderman takes a brutal beating. There are two uses of “Jesus” as an exclamation, and several mild obscenities and those do prevent Dove from approving this film. -
New In Town
2008, 97 min
Genre: Comedy
IMDB Rating: 5.6
Clean Rating: 3
Rented It On: Apple TVMy Comments: This movie is fun. Very funny. Renee does a great job with comedic timing and has nice chemistry with Harry. The Minnesota accents are hilarious. This movie makes you feel good. It has a positive ending that is heartwarming. We enjoyed the movie, but have to caution about the scene with the pokies, and seriously bad language. Otherwise this would be such a clean film! Pity. Not suitable for teenagers or children. For adults who are comfortable with the above, they can still have a nice evening of it. ENJOYMENT RATING: I give it 3 stars.
Dove Review: This film has some heartwarming scenes including the ladies of the community doing nice things for her such as making her homemade Valentine’s Day cards and helping arrange an apartment for her. She also attends an outdoor Christmas caroling event, with the community singing “Oh Come All Ye Faithful”. She even finds romance and begins to realize that she likes the town very much. When the company wants to shut down the plant, she instead comes up with a plan to save it. The themes of community spirit and perseverance are nice themes in the movie.Unfortunately, there is strong language used in the film and a joke about Jesus. There are some sexual innuendos included. This is not one for the entire family. We are unable to award our Dove “Family-Approved” Seal to the movie.
