I agree, Spanglish was a nice surprise; I love Cloris Leachman character (Tea Leoni’s mother), witty and insightful...
Has anyone seen 'Birth' w/ Nicole Kidman? Dunno what to make of the movie, ... beautiful music, very well done and acted, but man , <gasp> the story SUCKS!

is that the one where she has a love scene with a 12 year old boy? i think i remember hearing about that. apparently, back when the show was doing the film festival circuit, it got booed at a french theater.

Yeap, that’s the one. Was that movie shown on theaters in the US? I would think probably not. I had never heard of that movie before, so I was kind of surprised when I saw a new Nicole Kidman movie I’ve never heard before on blockbuster’s new releases.
I was really into the movie until that part, it’s just wrong. But like I said, it’s very well made , and the music IS amazing.

It’s likely that the version I saw was heavily edited so that blockbuster would put on the shelf. But still, the mere suggestion of the scene would make you sick.

Next night I watched Spanglish which I hate to admit, I didn't mind it at all. Wasn't great but it wasn't bad either.
Funny, the wife rented Oceans 12 and Splanglish together and we watched them on two consectutive nights. We felt the same regarding both movies.

I almost want to rent Oceans 12 because Ive heard it was that bad. I liked Oceans 11 so much, I figured I should at least check out its sequel - or just turn my brain off and watch it, expecting to get nothing out of it.

Absolutely! Like speakers, you should make up your own mind about any movie.
