Wild Wild Country (2018)
Watch it for the History - (It's missing a little of the ending.)
Having lived through this from 2 hours south, Bend, OR, we all remember the people dressed in red. I was a teen that shared headlines with Rajneeshees. You know how Al Bundy talks about back-in-the-day-football stories? Well I could show you newspaper pages with stories about my team and What's-His-Name. Osho? I never heard that moniker before watching this. I guess that's the point. I didn't know a tenth of this story. When you're 17 and the center of the universe, you don't quite care that the center of the universe moved to Antelope. All I can say is, watch this movie for the history. I could not avoid it. Here's another irony: I'm a Young Life guy. I can see how the story ends up for the Big Muddy/Washington Family Ranch. If you want to see an amazing transformation, go visit the ranch today. The movie didn't show the zip-line or how there are 5 complete regulation size basketball courts inside the former meeting-orgy complex. In the same building is the largest indoor skateboard park on the West Coast. It's a truly massive structure. So on that note I give the documentary a lower grade for not enough resolution on the side of the ranch itself. What the guru set out to do was actually completed by Christians on the same property.
Coach Snoop (2016)
Is this Real?
It appears that some of the plays are shot or re-shot just for the camera angles to be dramatic. It may be that some of the plays are real but if you watch the very first episode, there must be cameras on tracks behind the action and they when we see the same play from a different angle, there should be cameras visible from the opposite angle. The over-all message of the series is good; preparing young men for the real world. Don't let the staging of shots/set-up deter you from watching.
The Butterfly Effect (2004)
Tied for Worst Movie EVER
Ever see "A Night in the Life of Jimmy Reardon"? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0095736/ I'm glad you didn't see that movie. It used to be my ALL TIME worst movie until Butterfly Effect. Both movies have zero redeeming qualities, with constant disappointments. B.E. follows a time travel through psychosis plot line. What? When he's a kid he blacks-out during stressful events. When he's older and reading his journals about the events, he travels back, thus explaining the black- outs. He tries to make things better, and EVERY time he makes things worse. Attempting to save a friend from abuse, leads to him losing an arm. Another reading/psycho/time travel causes more damage until, ultimately, and this is the worst, leads to him never being born. He becomes a miscarriage. Could you come up with a worse story? Good stories overcome a problem. This movie just goes downhill, all the way to Hell. My version of Hell would be to watch this movie with my mother-in- law telling me how good it is, eternally. To end on a positive, Ashton Kutcher is a highly underrated actor and a wonderful human being.
