I believe it was a favor that put Alec Baldwin in the Mission Impossible Rogue Nation movie.  Mr. Baldwin’s character could have been played by many other fine actors who probably would have brought more depth to this role and with Tom Cruise as a leading actor it wasn’t necessary to bring the expense of the Baldwin’s name to the film. Alec Baldwin’s has been seen in less movies not because he’s not a fine actor but because of his performances off the screen have been less then desirable.  Be that as it may this was not the role that fit Alec Baldwin’s skill and therefore I conclude that this role was given to him as a way to bring him back into the ‘Hollywood Fold” and to add a few dollars to his cash flow.

“Mission Impossible Rogue Nation” gave the viewers what they were looking for a smart action film.  Was the acting outstanding not actually but you don’t go to this type of movie to see Oscar winning performances.  The Cinematography though was brilliant and the actions well let’s just say it was impossible not to be pulled and pushed into those scenes.  Tom Cruise still had it as did Rebecca Ferguson who kicked some b-u-t-t.  To conclusion it was a fun popcorn movie.

*** stars- The bad guys were too predictable to add an extra 1/2 star.

SHOULD I WRITE IT?  WOULD YOU SEE IT? 

Pete wants to break up with Jane but is afraid of what her reaction will be if not done correctly and in the right place.  He invites her to a lowly Cleveland Indians game and after a bite from a blessed hot dog it appears that Jane’s presence reignites the entire team. Or is that Pete and Jane together that does the trick? Maybe it’s the way the wrapper was placed…? Either way Pete feels he can’t break up with Jane or he’ll be responsible for the collapse of his beloved Indians.  What is a fan to do? Could love be reignited with one home run or will forced errors put an end to the romance and the Indians?

Have you ever wondered what it’s like to walk in a shoe that doesn’t fit? For many of the people that are “different” walk in those shoes everyday. What is the daily life of a Fire-Eater like, how does the wife of the least popular Presidential candidate spend her day, is it cumbersome as it looks to be the tallest man in the world.  These are the questions that “DIFFERENT” a new type of reality show will explore. As we get into the life’s of those who walk in shoe’s that most of us would trip in. In the process we just might find out that the shoes we’re in aren’t so bad after all.

David Letterman took a brief break from retirement to give us his new top ten list (below) and guess what it didn’t attack a Democrat yet it was hysterical.

10. That thing on his head was the gopher in Caddyshack.

9. During sex, Donald Trump calls out his own name.

8. Donald Trump looks like the guy in the lifeboat with the women and children.

7. He wants to build a wall? How about building a wall around that thing on his head!

6. Trump walked away from a moderately successful television show for a delusional, bull… Oh, no, wait, that’s me.

5. Donald Trump weighs 240 pounds (108kg) — 250 with cologne.

4. Trump would like all Americans to know that that thing on his head is free-range.

3. (Tie) If President, instead of pardoning a turkey on Thanksgiving, he plans to evict a family on Thanksgiving. AND: That’s not a hairdo — it’s a wind advisory.

2. Donald Trump has pissed off so many Mexicans, he’s starring in a new movie entitled, NO Amigos (a reference to the 1986 comedy, Three Amigos, that starred Short and Martin).

1. Thanks to Donald Trump, the Republican mascot is also an ass.

I’m a little late to the ball game but still there are people in the stands. It’s amazing that “Jurassic World” is still bringing them (including me) after a relative long time in the film market! Maybe it’s because this a great movie that must be seen in a movie theatre. The visual and sound effects are so big that it would blow away any home movie system (except Mr. Spielberg” home system).   A great script with some silly moments as well make this the perfect summer flick even if you start your summer in July.

This movie stays in your head and leaves you thinking for many moons to come. Yet the trailer makes it more action packed then the actual visual content that is on the movie. Six Sense, Twelve Monkeys now Predestination is added to my list of films that add a new dimension to my thinking.
