Weekend Watchlist – November 11, 2022

My top 3 picks for this weekend are : 

1. Hail, Caesar!
   • The Coen Brothers 2016 ensemble cast Hail, Caesar! is a fun, witty, movie about movies. Josh Brolin leads this picture as a Hollywood fixer, tracking down a missing superstar. There are so many things in here for movie lovers and fans of old Hollywood to enjoy.
2. Freaky Friday
   • Freaky Friday is a classic Disney original movie starring Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis. I watched this for the first time at the behest of my fiancé and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I found it to be funny and surprisingly well written, even if it hasn’t completely aged well.
3. Zathura
   • Did you know Zathura exists in the Jumanji universe? I didn’t either until this afternoon, but that makes it all the more enjoyable. It’s a little dated, but still enjoyable. The concept is remarkably refreshing, given that it’s a 2005 movie. You might notice a few familiar faces.
