Movie Reviews: Last year film maker Jeff Nichols did a movie called, Take Shelter, great movie. Opening today, Jeff’s new film, Mud and it’s another great movie. Starring Matthew McConaughey and Reese Witherspoon, it’s an offbeat film set on the Mississippi river about two teenage boys who meet a man on the run who is played by McConaughey. They bring him food, and he tells them stories with lots of twists and turns throughout. This film works at every level, great film making. (PG-13) – (130 Minutes) – (3 ½ Stars)
Also opening today is, Kon-Tiki, the true story of the 1947 crossing of the Pacific on a Balsawood raft by explorer, Thor Heyerdahl and a few of his few believers. This is great story telling, beautifully filmed and well written. (PG-13) – (2 Hours) – (3 ½ Stars)
