Postcards from the Edge may be an older movie in a lot of ways (1990), it still has a modern feel. Some people will say 1990 is recent – until you take into realization that 17 year olds who were conceived at the time of this movie shooting will now be voting for president next year.

Carrie Fisher’s writing in the movie feels real. Real in the fact that human emotions feel the way they should, like you would feel if you were going through the same scenario’s. I don’t feel it glossed over emotions, it was unique and something that I can say was genuine film art.

So many films can give you that real emotion, that if you want something that can be truly touching without trying to make you cry, you must see this movie.

While this movie does have some plot holes that exist even in the I can see two minutes ahead time frame. Over all it was an enjoyable experience. It is by no means a must see movie, but an entertaining diversion that you could watch.

I wanted to watch this, the idea had interested me. But while I can enjoy a wide range of movies from a myriad of genres – this has been one of the greatest wastes of my time.

I can’t fault the actors as much as the story and the directing of this film. The whole movie felt hollow and dragged on and on….and when you thought it was getting close to the end….dragged on and on some more.

I really would have thought more for the actors, directors and story.

While it was amusing in parts it definitely could have been better

I can say I thought this movie would be better then what it was. But it was at least worth viewing. There are a few twists at the end that can still make it enjoyable for all – it is a comedy suspense movie type atmosphere when it is all said and done.

While like always Christian Bale plays a great role (though this one was a small one) this movie tried to be a victorian era pulp ficiton – in the sense the plot was all over the place.

Robin Williams stole the show in the small role he played in this film. Eddie Izzard played an excellent straight role – but even when he plays it straight it still seems to come off humorous – but that might just be me.

This show like others have said is more of the same – the formula is essentially unchanged. I’m not going to say the formula is stale – but this season’s storyline is not the best one. If you had a choice of 24 seasons to watch, I would go with season’s 2 or 3.

Soon to watch 24 season 5 let’s hope it gets back to how the first few seasons felt.

While on the surface this may not be the greatest movie in the world (and it’s not). In fact at the time it was realeased it was the highest costing lowest money making movie ratio Disney had ever released.

That all being said part of me wished they would have gone the original plan of making this a drama and not a musical. I found the story line (based on true events) of children going on strike against Pulitzer on the price increase of newspaper fascinating. I can’t think of a modern parallel of children causing a big business to change it’s ways. I did do some brief follow up in wikipedia about the original story but it was sparse and will require more research on my part to read about the historical side of this.

Christian Bale is a joy to watch. He is one of the greatest Actors living today. The best is always to watch him while he is having fun, you can see the joy he had doing this role.

Christian Bale was excellent – but the movie overall was so so – and a very terrible role for him to take

If you are a true Ender fanatic you must read this book. It is filled with short stories about different things in the Enderverse – but the most important story is when Ender first meets Jane.
