Kiss the Water (2013)
Breathtaking
Kiss the Water is not a biography. It is not a documentary. It is a celebration of beauty.
If you want to see a documentary about fly fishing, or the creation of flies, you may be disappointed. If you want to go on a river cruise through interwoven scenes of heart-wrenching animation and breathtaking cinematography, climb aboard and hold on tight.
As with all great art, Kiss the Water is both a lens and a mirror. It allows you to see the beauty of the individual; tying flies because the feathers, wires and hooks call to her. It allows us to see the beauty of the scene; the river that carries these hand-crafted lures to their prey. It allows us to see the potential in ourselves; creators of details and worlds.
If the visual splendor weren't enough, Kiss the Water is punctuated with an equally-transcendent soundtrack. Beauty, upon beauty, upon beauty.
Grease 2 (1982)
Lighten up - this is supposed to be fun!
If you're looking for Grease, this is the wrong movie. If you're looking for a fun way to spend a couple of hours, this is the right movie. Yeah, Grease 2 is cheesy, but I don't trust anyone who doesn't like a little cheese.
Michelle Pfeiffer provides a particularly entertaining performance as the lead, a female version of Danny from the original.
The songs are catchy and the choreography is inspiring. I challenge you to watch the entire movie without at least tapping your toes. I'm not embarrassed to admit that I tap my toes, wave my hands, and do a couple of spins every time I see it.
So, all you armchair critics, lighten up, turn the volume up, kick your heels up, and put the remote up. You won't find "Summer Lovin," but you will learn a little something about "Reproduction."
