Pop Culture Junkie does a post at the end of every month about the movies watched. Since I too watch a lot of movies each month, I wanted to take a cue from this and share my own movie watching experience.

This month I watched:

  • Undercover Brother – a silly film recommended by my uncle
  • Little Children – second viewing, an amazing film

  • Holy Smoke – strange story of a woman in a cult and her rescue
  • Ratatouille – fun Pixar picture about a rat whose true calling is to be a chef
