Ellas mandan

I just finished watching this movie. I had seen the trailer and it initially intrigued me... But...The result was simply awful. I didn't laugh at all. I have to mention that I like Emma Thompson, but the script is so weak, there is no pace. I think I have seen this type of movie hundreds of times. If you ''must'' this movie, see it while you work on your laptop or you red your newspaper. If you miss 20 minutes or more, never mind. Nevertheless, nothing happens really. Please, make better movies.

Emma Thompson is one of those actors that spans the range of roles, and makes every character real. This behind the scenes look at Late Night hosted by a successful now 56 year old woman had moments of humor, some social issues, Hollywood issues, and ends up deciding to do something different, be real. It does fall in the range of a good film, but not a great one, an enjoyable film not a laugh riot. The character is a driven woman who succeeded in a man's world, and the cuts of her hair, her pant suits, even how she behaves is very masculine, what women often do to succeed in a man's world. The character is layered and interesting as she walks through a kind of mid-life crisis, career and husband. It's more of a character piece, which I prefer anyway. A good evening's watch.

I saw this movie yesterday and I loved it! Emma and Mindy are an amazing pair. It's a little reminiscent of Devil Wears Prada but in only the best of ways. Emma Thompson brings a vulnerability to her stern, straight laced character who is stuck in her own ways. Mindy's character gets hired to work for Emma's Late Night talk show to help get it back on track to avoid cancellation. Mindy is incredibly charming, sweet and very opinionated in her role. These two ladies knock it out of the park and will make you laugh and cry. It's not every day we get to see a team up like this. The story is passionate, the jokes are hilarious, and the emotions are sincere. I highly recommend, it was a good time at the movies.

Watched Late Night. I did enjoy it. Not an amazing piece of writing, but overall an enjoyable film. I love Emma Thompson, Denis O'Hare and John Lithgow. "Amazing actors" I've enjoyed for years. The film has it funny, sad and happy times. If you choose to watch it, you will like this film as it carries well. I don't see me watching it again, but did enjoy it, and as always. I'll follow these 3 actors because they never stop giving us their very very best.

Yes, yes, yes...it's not Academy Award material...so what. If you want a charming comedy to escape some evening, this one will work. It is similar to "Morning Glory" but not a copy. Good characters and acting. It has its slow moments, but generally a good watch.
