Courtney’s Movie Reviews: Mata Hari, How Green Was My Valley, Idiocracy
October 5th, 2009 |
(1931) Garbo is quite cool but its still just a goofy little ride featuring the goofiest dance number in the history of film, the poor dear. |
 |
(1941) I love the Welsh, John Ford, Maureen O’Hara and Roddy Mcdowell but this is still a gruelling two hour bout with near suicidal depression any way you slice it. |
 |
(2006) After recently touring the midwest I couldn’t help but think that everyone who came to our shows must feel like Luke Wilson in this movie at least a little bit every day except without the hijinks and hilarity.. |

JESSE says: Dearest Courtney, Love the Welsh ? They love you, so why not come on over and give us a gig (it’ll save me travelling the lenght and breadth of the UK to see my favourite band). And save a few dollars on hotel bills – stay at my place, all of you, and your parents, make a weekend of it. You play fast, I’ll do the drugs. Living in hope, Love, Jesse and Helena
Lany says: Wow Courtney…you’ve done some serious movie watching. Two oldies and one recent flick. Your review is making me want to watch Mata Hari just because of the goofy dancing. It’s so interesting how the trends have changed drastically over the years. I’d love to see how we’re all gonna bust a move someday when we’re all living in space. Now that would take some serious coordination. Thank you for posting these.
sarah says: I did not see Mata Hari. But I do love Garbo, she’s a great actric. I’m gonna check one of those movies. Thank you Courtney ! xxxx
p.s: Today was my second day in university and my english teacher is called McCabe, I found it kinda funny and that made me smile !

martine says: thank you Mike, i learn a new expression :” knitting needles in the eyes !” lol!

Dianna says: having come from the vast and desolate plains of oklahoma, and having seen “idiocracy” recently, i can only say that i truly agree with courtney’s assessment: i identified with luke wilson all the way.
Mike says: We moved from LA to Cincinnati about 16 years ago- we feel kind of like cultural missionaries…our lifeswork is to tell the assholes that live here that even though they think they are cool, they aren’t that cool…Although Kim Deal lives only about 50 miles from my house up near Dayton (and she plays for free at Shake It records every once and a while…:)
Elijah says: Hi Courtney,i was wondering if you like Woody Allen films?
