"Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close" (2012) PG-13 **** -- We had the disk sitting at home for a month. I had to want to step into the pain of 9-11. We finally watched it without really wanting to. We watched to move our hearts closer to true humanness. Please watch it to share not only in the human pain but the human beauty that can arise from such darkness. 9-11 is the story of humanity. It is a beautiful and difficult movie - please watch it. -- 13 years up.

Shaolin" (2011) R **** -- another great movie with Jackie Chan. He receives 4th billing. It is great to see a superstar age humbly in their career.
