Film Review: The Iron Lady and Magic Mike
That it's only now that I finish watching The Iron Lady means one thing: the movie does not sustain my interest to finish seeing it despite Meryl Streep's wonderful performance as Margaret Thatcher. I agree that Meryl Streep got the Best Actress plum at the Academy Awards last year but the film is actually overshadowed by Meryl Streep. That's all I can say about it. Oh, by the way - wonderful makeup!
Rating: 2.5/4.0
Magic Mike (Steven Soderbergh, 2012)
Academy Award winner Steven Soderbergh gives depth to an otherwise overused and shallow plot involving male strippers in a movie. It's fun to watch and you'll care about the characters. Matthew McConaughey did a praise-worthy acting as an ageing male stripper who runs the strip club.
Rating: 3.0/4.0
