Here are some photos from a visit to the spray park a few weeks back...

A few weeks back I watched King Kong (2005,PG-13) (ScreenIt! Review).  From ScreenIt!:

A 1930s film crew sets out to discover an uncharted island for their film, but must contend with the 25-foot tall ape that kidnaps their starlet and retreats into its prehistoric world.

I remember when this came out but didn't give it much thought at the time.  I didn't realize it was Peter Jackson's handiwork.  I really enjoyed it...it's epic nature, the special effects, Naomi Watts, etc.

I give it 4 out of 5.

A few weeks back I watched Cinderella Man (2005,PG-13) (ScreenIt! Review).  From ScreenIt!:

To keep his family together during the Great Depression, a former aspiring boxer climbs his way back into the ring and gets a shot at the heavyweight championship in this inspiring tale based on a true story.

I wonder what it is about sport films that makes it so enjoyable and satisfying to root for the underdog and see him triumph.  This story of James J. Braddock's amazing comeback is one of those films, so I really enjoyed it.

I give it 4 out of 5.
