Money Monster ☀️☀️☀️☀️
This is a good story with decent acting. I think George Clooney’s character is based on that guy Jim from CNBC. I never watched his show, but I remember seeing Jon Stewart make fun of it on The Daily Show a while back. In essence, the host of the “business” stockpicking show gets taken hostage by a guy who unwisely acted on one of his tips. I won’t tell you what happens, but it was done in a very plausible way. I didn’t find out until later that the director is Jodie Foster, but I think the direction was excellent.
If it hadn’t had an English villain, it would have got five stars. A great movie to watch while having dinner on a plane.
Rating System
In case you’d forgotten, I use a five sun rating system. It works like this:
-
Movie gets one sun for interesting story with good acting
-
Movie gets one sun for not having an English villain
-
Movie gets one sun for not being too dark or having lots of special effects, so you can enjoy it properly on an airplane screen
-
Movie gets one sun if I watched all the way to the end without falling asleep or turning over because I was bored
-
Movie gets one sun if it doesn’t have Kate Winslet in it
So any movie I watch on a place gets at least one sun, and if they pull out all the stops they can get five.
