Two Good Movies

Joe Strombel (Ian McShane) manages to cheat the Reaper after his death and in the words of his colleagues at his funeral chases down a scoop from his grave. He appears to Sandra Pransky (Scarlett Johansson) a journalism student from America and on holiday in the UK at Sidney Waterman (Woody Allen) magic show and fills her in on his story which involves disclosing the name of the Tarot Card Serial Killer in London.

The lead points towards aristocrat Peter Lyman (Hugh Jackman) who is not only good looking, but a suave gentleman. The story unfolds and finally Sandra does manage to nail the killer.

The movie is cute and has you guessing all the way. If you want to know who the actual killer is watch this cute, funny odd and thrilling movie and you’ll be in on the Scoop.

My Cousin Vinny is the ultimate funny movie and if you haven’t watched it, you need to right away. The film is about two kids William 'Billy' Gambini (Ralph Macchio) & Stan Rothenstein (Mitchell Whitfield) driving across America to join College. Unfortunate for them, they get picked up and accused of Murder of a convenience store owner in a small town. Not really understanding the accusations, they even admit to it, thinking that they are admitting to Billy having “nicked” something from the store. Only when they realised the gravity of the situation, Billy calls his mom, find out he has a lawyer in the Family, His Cousin Vinny.

Vincent 'Vinny' Gambini (Joe Pesci) and his girlfriend/fiancĂ© Mona Lisa Vito (Marisa Tomei) drive down to his rescue. The rest of the courtroom and out of courtroom drama is hilarious. This is Vinny’s first case and he actually doesn’t have a clue what he’s doing, but in his own logical and argumentative style and of course the closing argument of his girlfriend in favour of the defendant’s, saves the day. Marissa Tomei is at her unbelievable best, which even got her the Oscar for the role. Joe Pesci with his straight faced humor is just too good.

My Cousin Vinny is a laugh riot and a must-must watch.
