The year was 1946 and soldiers were just returning to the states from the war. Among them was James Stewart, an actor who had delivered a knockout performance in 'Mr. Smith Goes to Washington,' and won an Oscar for 'The Philadelphia Story.' But after 5 years, Stewart planned to take a break because he thought he was rusty, and Lionel Barrymore convinced him to do this film. Thank God he did.

This was the first older film that I watched back in December and now I have seen well over fifty classic films. This movie is amazing. As you watch the movie, you will begin to truly embrace Bailey. You feel for him in his highs and lows. Stewart gives the ultimate performance, he greatest of his career. Henry Travers and Barrymore are also phenomenal. Frank Capra created a true masterpiece here filled with emotion that will truly get to you. After you have watched this film, you will be glad you're alive, and don't be surprised if you're in tears as well.

A true gem of cinema that you do not see often, filled with heart and emotion that is just as rare. I love watching the film at Christmastime, but there is no question in my mind that this movie can work magic any time of the year. So if you're feeling down, or just want to watch one of the greatest movies ever filmed, watch 'It's a Wonderful Life.' An easy 10/10, higher if possible.

Alright, now that I have your attention due to my cheesy title, let me give my review. I went to see Nacho Libre to to the comedic greatness of Jack Black, and I was not disappointed! At an orphanage in 1970s Oaxaca, Mexico, Ignacio (Black)is a cook who has a passion for the Lord and MeHEcan spices. But the children do not like his food, and Ignacio realizes he needs money for fresh ingredients to make perfect meals. And due to his interest in lucha libre, Mexican wrestling, he realizes its his perfect opportunity. But because of his crush Encarnacion's disapproval and the church's forbidding, he must keep it a secret to stay in the monestary. So he starts the wrestling alias Nacho Libre with tag-team partner Esqueleto, he must win the matches against the toughest luchadores in Oaxaca, maybe the world, to get the orphans their food.

Its very good, with many new great catchlines, and great situations. The characters all have their own touch, which really helps. Any Black fan will LOVE it, as will any WWE fan who wants to see some damn good wrestling scenes.

Overall, its a hilarious and perfect summer movie. I loved it, and can only hope for a sequel.
