What to Watch: Films for Mother’s Day Weekend
I’m going to keep this brief as Mother’s Day is not a day that I find happy and celebratory anymore. My mother passed away a couple months ago and it still kind of stings. But instead of being a downer, I encourage you to visit your mother and hug her. Hug her with everything you have. Then take her out to a nice dinner and do whatever she tells you. Mothers are amazing.
Or take her to the movies!
King Arthur: Legend of the Sword
Robbed of his birthright, Arthur comes up the hard way in the back alleys of the city. But once he pulls the sword from the stone, he is forced to acknowledge his true legacy – whether he likes it or not.
Snatched
When her boyfriend dumps her before their exotic vacation, a young woman persuades her ultra-cautious mother to travel with her to paradise, with unexpected results.
Lowriders
A young street artist in East Los Angeles is caught between his father’s obsession with lowrider car culture, his ex-felon brother and his need for self-expression.
The Wall
Two American Soldiers are trapped by a lethal sniper, with only an unsteady wall between them.
Paris Can Wait
Anne is at a crossroads in her life. Long married to a successful, driven but inattentive movie producer, she unexpectedly finds herself taking a car trip from Cannes to Paris with a business associate of her husband. What should be a seven-hour drive turns into a carefree two-day adventure replete with diversions involving picturesque sights, fine food and wine, humor, wisdom and romance, reawakening Anne’s senses and giving her a new lust for life.
Absolutely Anything
A disillusioned school teacher suddenly finds he has the ability to do anything he wishes – a challenge bestowed upon him by power-crazed aliens, watching him from space.
