I know you've missed these reviews, and this movie is powerful enough I had to come back to share this with you.  Stories like this don't come around very often, so it was worth it to bring this to you.  I've been away on a medical leave, I'm hoping to be back soon. Original Review: This is it Notes: (misplaced, gotta find them)

This story is like bad turbulence, it's bumpy from beginning to end. Blurb: When a fugitive turns witness, the likelihood of him surviving long enough to testify is questionable. This is the somewhat harrowing tale of that journey.  Notes: Flight risk, igloo motel, madolyn Harris, Winston, n208uu, this isn't a plane this is a kite with seat belts, judge Falco, Daryl booth, the number of passengers who have left their lunch up here I could open a snack bar,  I got ddt in my blood, 516 west valley rd palmer AK, Eskimo soup,  I do this for fun I do this for free, all we can do is choose how to respond in this moment, director coleridge, fair dancer, fat dancer, Caroline van sant, frequency 121.5,

A story that is less about redemption and more about a hard life from it's bare bones beginning to an ending that isn't quite what you'd expect.  Blurb: Overall, Redeeming Love offers a heartfelt and redemptive story, though it’s not without its emotional weight. This could be a powerful watch if you’re in the right mindset for a film that mixes romance with a heavy dose of drama and faith-based themes. Just be prepared for some intense moments Notes: All that glitters is not gold, pair a dice California, I love you more than anything  or anyone in this whole wide world, never look back never look forward, Michael hosea, palace hotel, captain Sorenson ship, Tess Atherton, Paul Atherton, Sarah stafford / Angel, Alex stafford, maverick the dog, shadrach the horse, Albert & Stanford, sometimes you have to leave behind what you are born into to become who God meant you to be, Michael Benjamin Altman,  John Altman, miriam altman, Elizabeth Altman, dry bones, ruthie Altman, Susannah axelrod, Jonathan axelrod, Virgil harper, mama's home cooking,  Harper's Cafe, Joseph hochschild, house of Magdalena, miriam Atherton, angel hosea, Sarah hosea, Stephen hosea, Francine rivers, Bible hosea, Minnie rosse, Alice Boothe, Charles Conley,In loving memory of mphulupulu naughty mbilizi and Rick Bonn,For Holly Caruso and Rick rivers,Redeeminglovesanctuary.org,

We've come to know the minions, but do we really. Here we get to see where they come from and why they are the way they are.  Original Review: Minions, they've been around for thousands of years. Their only purpose, to serve the most despicable master they can find. It hasn't always worked out the best for their masters but the minions have persevered. Their upbeat demeanor and silly antics do more than just entertain one another, it keeps them going when they're masterless. When one of these time periods lasts longer than they could have imagined, one of them decides to go out and discover the world. Two others will join him on this noble quest, for companionship and adventure but ultimately a mission. The mission: To find a new master. As the search continues, they face many challenges that threaten them and the mission. When they come across an opportunity to serve the ultimate villain, it's an opportunity they cannot pass up. Upon meeting her, the minions win her over. Their first assignmentﾠpresentsﾠit's own difficulties as they end up in a situation that will test their will and loyalty to one another and to their master/mistress. This tale is filled with childlike wonder and immature antics. It answers a lot of questions but leaves you asking more. It's hard to believe that such little yellow blobs that have a language that few understand can be so loveable but they are. If you're a fan of the Despicable Me movies, and/or the minions (alone), you'll definitely get a kick out of this. This may not meet all expectations but it's definitely true to their character... literally and figuratively.

Gru is back, so is everyone else. There are some new faces and other entertain features. If you're a fan of the minions, you'll leave smiling.  Orignal Review: We find Gru no longer the villain but a father and has been acclimating to his new family life for a while. But as we know in life things change. He’s approached by the AVL (The Anti-Villain League) to help find a villain who has stolen a top-secret formula that turns any living thing into a monster of sorts. Along with the minions, He sets off with a reluctant new partner Lucy to find the culprit they believe is hiding out in one of the Paradise Mall stores. Gru now deals with a work life as well as now being a father which is fun to watch play out in pure funny Despicable me style. The spy stuff in the movie is fun as well with all the new gadgets and stuff. And seriously Agnes is the most adorable animated kid since Boo from Monsters Inc. We loved her in the first movie and you will surely love her more in this one as well. Besides Agnus, El Macho is just that Macho. His introduction alone was cool. Who is he again? Well watch the movie and find out. The crazy humor of the minions is much funnier than in the first installment and the humor is well placed as usual. The kids aren’t the only ones who will enjoy this movie. So, “welcome to the mall family!” What does that mean exactly? It’s a cute movie! So see it and all will be revealed.

Is Gru despicable or devoted? That's a deep question for a shallow man... Or is he? Orignal Review: Gru is despicable and a villain, at least in his mind. He’s been in the game a long time and hasn’t really made the impact he dreamt he would. And he’s been trying to gain his mother’s approval since he was a boy. And now with a new breed of villains on the horizon, younger and a bit better at it than Gru, he will have to do something that has never been done before to prove he is the best. With the help of his faithful little minions, he will...(pause for effect)…Steal The Moon! But he’s going to need some help. His idea is simple. Adopting three girls he could get into places he couldn’t before. Using them he will get what he’s always wanted, or will he? We see the relationship between him and the girls start to get in the way of the mission at hand. To be despicable or be good for the first time in his life? Will he able to stay the course and steal the moon and become the greatest supervillain of all time? Will he ever gain his mother’s approval? Well, find out for yourself. The comedic elements between Gru, the minion, and the girls are very fun to watch develop throughout. It has its heartfelt moments and is a fun overall experience you’ll most likely enjoy even if you’re not considered a kid. But kids will love it, that’s for sure. Notes: and bless us that while we sleep no bugs will crawl into our ears and lay eggs in our brain, and once the moon is mine the world will give me whatever I want to get it back and I will be the greatest villain of all time that’s what i’m talkin bout, and please bless someone will adopt us soon and the mommy and daddy will be nice and have a pet unicorn amen, anyone come to adopt us while we were out, are these beds made of bombs, Bank of Evil Formerly Lehman Brothers, chilax i’ll just get another loan from the bank they love me, curse you tiny toilet, do you have coconuties, do you really think this is an appropriate place for little kids cause uh it’s its not, don’t let her take us Mr Gru tell her you want to keep us, don’t worry the moon is as good as ours, Evolution of Exposives, first give me the moon then we’ll talk, freeze ray, girls I want you to meet Gru he’s a dentist, girls welcome back to the fortress of vectortude, goodbye recorded message, Great Pyramid of Giza, he is gonna kick your but, he punched my shark, how do you remove them is there a command nonstick spray crowbar, I bet their house is made of gummy bears, I don’t think he’s a dentist, I got the pyramid in my hands, I hate that guy, I have pins and needles I’m sitting on, I like him he’s nice but scary like Santa, I love everything about your plan except you, I said cookie robots not why are you so old, I see you’ve made a list of your personal achievements thank you for that, I was thinking heist is a Tuesday thing, I went to kindergarten I know how the alphabet works, I won’t even mention the Eiffel Tower also from vegas, I’ll stuff you all in the crust, in my eyes you always be one of the greats, it has been disintegrated by definition it cannot be fixed, it poked a hole in my juice box, It was your cousins idea, it’s a mathematical term quantity represented by an arrow with both direction and magnitude, it’s like my tooth that has a cavity that can only be filled with children, It’s so fluffy I’m gonna die, Just so you know you’re never going to be my dad, Knocked over, Kyle these are not treats they are guests, leaving everyone to wonder which one of the worlds villains is responsible for this heinous crime and where will he strike next, Let’s go destroy another game, life is full of disappointments for some people, Margo I will catch and I will never let you go again, Minions assemble, Miss Hatties Home for Girls, mom not cool, moon landing, msnbc, now go clean something of mine, now you’ll think twice before you freeze someone’s head, Oh poop, Okay you got me the dentist thing is...
