Love Birds (2011)

Typical goofy New Zealand humor with a young Rhys Darby in the lead role. The quirky love story is hard not to like. It doesn’t hurt if you also enjoy ducks and the music of Queen. I do.

The World’s Fastest Indian (2005)

Hopkins is excellent. It's a great telling of a true story. Despite the high speeds of the film's star, the film itself is very slow paced. Go for the drama, not the action.

King Kong (2005)

This was a great film to see in the theater. It was made for the big screen. Tons of action, larger than life characters, and great sound. Peter Jackson can do no wrong in my book.

I knew Jack Black had it in him to do a serious role, and I'm glad Peter saw it too. Naomi Watts was perfect in the lead. The ape was simply amazing. Wasn't cartoony looking at all. Yes it was long, but it's a fantastic trip.
