Rating -- I give it 5 Bridges out of 5<br />

<strong>Brut</strong>oco Bridge Movie Rating Scale:<br />

5 Bridges – Definitely a classic. Worth paying full price at the<br />

theater, or maybe even seeing again<br />

4 Bridges – A good solid movie, keeps your attention, worth<br />

the money (tickets and popcorn).<br />

3 Bridges – Okay to see at the discount theater on a rainy day,<br />

otherwise wait for it to come out on DVD.<br />

2 Bridges – Not worth your hard earned cash at the theater.<br />

Maybe a rental if there is nothing better at Blockbuster.<br />

1 Bridge – Pass on it. Wait until next week’s new releases.<br />

NEW MovIE: End of Watch<br />

I saw an advance screening of this film earlier this summer and I must say this is one of the best buddy cop genre movies I have<br />

ever seen. End of Watch is a movie about two young Los Angeles police officers, Dan Taylor (Jake Gyllenhaal) and his partner<br />

Mike Zavala (Michael Pena), that patrol the rough streets of South Central Los angeles. Their ambitious and fearless attitudes<br />

makes them two of LAPD’s finest, but leads them to uncovering a dangerous drug cartel that ends up being too much for them<br />

to handle. what makes Taylor and Zavala such a great team is that they act more like brothers than friends. They come from<br />

different backgrounds and cultures --Taylor a white ex-Marine and Zavala a Mexican local boy -- which makes for hilarious<br />

conversations while in the patrol car. Throughout the movie, Taylor is keeping a video log for a school project, so parts of the<br />

movie are shot as if from his camera, which gives a different look on things. The movie does well in portraying how important it is<br />

to have a partner you can trust and get along with. There are some graphic scenes, so if you have a weak stomach be prepared.<br />

(Maybe see the movie first, then dinner). Overall, it’s an awesome action/drama movie.<br />

oLD MovIE: one Day<br />

I saw this movie in the theater with my wife in August 2011, and I thought it was a good chick flick, but I hated the<br />

ending. One Day is a love story about two friends, Em (anne Hathaway) and Dexter (Jim Sturgess), who end up sleeping<br />

together on the night of their college graduation and every year on that date the movie shows where they are in their<br />

lives.. After their initial fling, the two of them decide that it’s best not to stay together and to just be friends. Em goes on<br />

her way struggling to make ends meet by working several un-enjoyable part-time jobs while trying to make it as a writer.<br />

Dexter, a wealthy wannabe celebrity, ends up traveling for several years after college, living the life, and then goes into<br />

show business. The two stay friends for a long time, until finally Dexter realizes that the perfect girl, Em, was in front of<br />

him the whole time. This movie has all the ingredients a chick flick needs: love, laughs, sadness, and a good message.<br />

Check it out on your next date.<br />
