My Take on Movies, the Subliminal Appeal

I've mentioned it before, I think a movie that does good, one that commands our dollars for 90something minutes of colored light and sound, needs to tap into some active vein of our culture. Some artery in our subconscious flowing with fear, love, concern, a need to laugh, anything relevant, will make us spend replacable money and irreplacable time in a theatre.

We've been told that our government can now take our property and that secret rules are being written to strip away our privacy and security in the name of safety. There may be those who fear our government has become to powerful and stopped serving the best interests of the people and started serving the best interests of itself. For those people, I think this movie will fit the ticket nicely.

Now I must admit I am a fan of Charlize Theron, but I haven't seen all her movies, especially Monster. I don't want to see her homely nor do I want to see a lesbian movie (but it does fit one of my pet theories that most, if not all, dysfunctional women(people) usually have some inordinate amount of abuse and lack of love in their childhood) so the cons of seeing that flic outweigh the pros. I picture her best as a 1940's beauty, wearing a wisp of silk, painted on the nose of my 4-engine bomber returning from a mission deep in Germany, a beauty from an age gone by.

I hope this movie lives up to my expectations.
