Double Feature


Saturday was a busy day.
Saw 2 films.

This one - Ace Attorney

A Japanese film that, to me, felt like a cross between Power Rangers and the old Batman t.v. show. I think it is a big cult hit in Japan because a lot of the audience knew all about it and cheered at the mere mention of the character's name (Phoenix Wright).
In my opinion - SKIP IT.
I give it 1/2 stars.
(I forced myself to fall asleep during it).


The other movie was a gem.
A Simple Life

I believe a Chinese film.
A low-key, moving story about a maid who works for a family for 60 years who then finds herself in the situation of being cared for by the youngest family member as she becomes ill.
Loved it.
4 stars.
