If your over 60, you'll likely like this game show. It has easing going banter between Jay Leno, Kevin Eubanks and two contestants at a time. At times it's laugh out loud funny. Jay is a perfect host for this show. In addition many of the questions will be right up your alley or you'll be able to figure the answers out. If you're under 50, you may have to look elsewhere.

If you liked the Coen Brothers movie Fargo, I believe you will like this movie.

It's a movie that focuses primarily on the Lodge family who live in a planned community called Suburbicon where the residents are nearly 100% Caucasian, and want it to stay that way.

Matt Damon is Gardner Lodge and Julianne Moore plays two parts, his wife Rose and her sister Margaret. Noah Jupe is Gardner's and Rose's son Nicky (about 10 years old). A home invasion at the Lodge house leads to events that are the center of the plot that unfolds in the movie. A subplot concerns a black family that moves into the house behind the Lodge house. The subplot is not explored in any depth. The racism in our country was more overt back in the 1950s time frame of the movie.

Matt Damon and Noah Jupe do truly outstanding jobs in this movie, and Julianne Moore and the supporting cast, including Oscar Isaac, are also very good.

Don't go to this movie if you are not a fan of Coen Brothers' movies.

My wife Monica and I saw this movie yesterday and enjoyed it very, very much. Jessica Chasten gives a truly outstanding performance and an Oscar nomination for it should be in her future. The supporting cast is universally excellent.

Since the movie is about congressional legislation for background checks on gun purchases, many of the Second Amendment fanatics (some of whom had not seen the movie but voted) gave it a 1. Ignoring those votes (257 of the 788) the IMDb rating would have been 7.5 which is an appropriate average.

The movie is long, over two hours, which may be a detriment to some, but we certainly felt it was worth the time. I would like to commend supporting actors Mark Strong, Gugu Mbatha- Raw (of Belle fame), and Alison Pill for their performances.

I hope you will go to see this movie.
