Little Monster Hustle

LITTLE

COMEDY

  

PLOT:    Adult black woman gets to be a thirteen year old again.

                Jordan Sanders (Regina Hall) is a black, successful but mean-spirited and demanding boss who makes a little girl angry and she makes her young again.  It has been done many times plus it is predictable but this is the black version.  Hall is funny and Marsai Martin (TV show blackish) is cute and amusing as young  Jordan but it is Issa Rae who is hilarious as Jordan’s overworked creative assistant, April.  It is better than I expected   but it could easily be on TV movie.

THE HUSTLE

COMEDY

PLOT:    Two female con artists make a bet to scam a tech billionaire.

                Josephine (Anne Hathaway) is a classy, beautiful woman and Penny (Rebel Wilson) is pretty, plus crass female.  The two ladies are con artists.  They make a bet who can con the billionaire first.  It is a female take on Dirty Rotten Scoundrels made in 1988 with Steve Martin and Michael Caine.  I did not see that movie but I did see this one.  It is not as funny as I thought it was going to be but it does have amusing parts in it.  Hathaway has fun being having different accents and lovely outfits and Wilson is cute with her unique dresses.  It is NOT worth watching in the movies but on video and cable.

GODZILLA: KING OF THE MONSTERS

ACTION/SCI-FI

PLOT:    A sequel to Godzilla 2014.

                Godzilla destroyed San Francisco while defeating a MUTO and disappear from sight in 5 years.  Dr. Russell had a tragedy in her life and made a device named Orca (!) that can control the Titans (giant monsters) to obliterate the world to make it better again.  Plot is not why I go see a Godzilla movie.  You go see the film to watch monster battles and it does!  It is not the flick in 2014 where Godzilla is in the entire movie for about 10 minutes! He is in the movie a lot!  The epic film is for fans mostly for there are many references in GKOTM from the Toho movies.  The 2 things I am not pleased with is the fight scenes are in the rain and there are suppose to be 17 monsters but I didn’t see them all.  If you like Godzilla GO SEE THIS MOVIE but if not wait.
