Harold and Maude

Year: 1971

Genre: Drama/Comedy

Starring: Ruth Gordon, Bud Cort, Vivian Pickles

Dave - 3 Stars - Cute story, and pretty funny but left me with nothing more than a "Yea, that was a good movie" feeling. Not something I need to watch again, but not something I would object to watching again.

Lexie - 4.5 Stars - Easily one of the most romantic movies ever, I am going to do my best not to gush too much about this movie. It's sweet, it's unique, and it's hilarious. It's worth seeing for no other reason than Ruth Gordon's performance, but fortunately, that is woven in with a number of other excellent facets such as Harold's mother and her sad attempts, the scenery, and the soundtrack. Bursting with film school goodness. Enjoy.

Havoc

Year: 2005

Genre: Drama

Starring: Anne Hathaway, Bijou Phillips, Freddy Rodriguez

Dave - 2.5 Stars - Decent enough movie, and should be viewed as a PSA for all the punk kids in the Troy/West Bloomfield/Birmingham/etc. school districts. It was probably worthy of 1.5 stars, but Hector was a really good role and of course Anne Hathaway did a nice job as a skanky, bored, rich, attractive teenager. But all in all, really weak and more annoying than anything.

Lexie - 3 Stars - I appreciate any movie that tries to show spoiled, rich teenagers what can happen to them when they act up. I would hope the "don't be a poser because it can get you in big trouble" message will resonate with this one, but I'm not optimistic. Scenes are graphic, but not overdone to the point where they are unwatchable.
