Set in the distant future, we meet Frank, an elderly man who is suffering from Alzheimer's. He is at a point where he cannot live alone, and his kids are too busy to watch him. So Frank's son brings home a robotic caregiver to take care of Frank. Frank and the robot form an unusual friendship and become partners in some risky activities.
I loved this movie. It reminded me of another underrated movie called Bicentennial Man. I recommend this movie to everyone.
Movie #18 The Trip 85%
It's time I come out the closest, I am an Anglophile. I've watched a lot of British film and television. I love their comedy and never miss watching when Manchester united take the pitch. This movie is full of U.K. pop culture and takes the viewer on a tour of Northern England that is breathtaking.
This is a road trip film, a buddy movie, and a pseudo documentary all wrapped up in one. Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon play versions of themselves as they tour the English countryside trying various hotels and restaurants for the Observer. Much of the dialogue is improvised and the actors have tremendous chemistry.
This is a delightful and introspective film. It will not appeal to a wide audience, but it is worth checking out.
Movie #17 Bachelorette 60%
If you want to appreciate just how good the movie Bridesmaids is, watch this movie. This movie can't decide if it wants to be a raunchy comedy or a chick flick. In the end, it fails at both. The only reason I give this movie a 60% is because there are a few funny moments. Also, it's nice to see Isla Fisher in a movie.
