Sandra Bullock Movie Review: ***^ Speed (1994)

 Speed is a wild ride.  It is rated R as it has too mch f'ing.  It does have some memorial characters.  Annie (Sandra Bullock) is a bus passenger, who grabs the wheel when the driver is shot.  Jack Traven (Keanu Reevs) is a bomb specialist with LAPD.  Howard Payne (Dennis Hopper) is the bomber.  He ius Ex bomb squad police who retired when fingers blown off; but not happy with his severance.  Harry (Jeff Daniels) is Traven's partner.  He does not survive as a bomb explodes when they go to Payne's home.  Not all of this is realistic; especially driving the bus through town and keeping it above 50 mph.  If it goes below 50 a bomb will explode.  Lots of action and lots of peril.  

DC Animated Movie: League of Super Pets

 Krypto/ Superdog (Dwayne Johnson) joins forces with a bunch of pound animals who have gotten super powers, while those with super powers have lost them thanks to a villain guinea pic, Lulu (Kate McKinnon).  In this way she has captured all the supers, and plans to free Lex Luthor (Marc Maron).  Krypto had let his guard down for a moment as Superman was involved with Lois Lane (Olivia Wilde) and he feels left out.  However Krypto and his friends seem to defeat Lulu several times, but then she keeps coming back stronger and stronger.  The movie doesn't know when to end.  Finally Krypto has to travel around the sun and bring the sun's powers to bear on Lulu.  He would have died had not the pound dog, Ace (Kevin Hart) saved him.  Other notable voice roles, Keanu Reeves as Batman and John Krasinski as Superman.  It seems all the super heroes have a bet emulating them, Wonder woman, Batman, Flash etc.

This plat is a bit more far fetched than even a super hero movie, but it seems to make its point, that all creatures are worthy of friendship and love.   

In Theaters: ***^Replicas (2018)

***^Replicas (2018)  Here is a movie that ended up being much different than I had imagined.  Ended up being an industrial terror kind of movie, rather than just making clones.  Keanu Reeves play the father who loses his family in a car accident; and is determined to bring them back. However he only has three canisters and four family members.

Movie Review: ****The Lake House (2006)

Dr. Kate Forster (Sandra Bullock) lives at a new lake house, which was the former residence of Alex Wyler (Keanu Reeves) and was designed by Alex' estranged father, Simon Wyler (Christopher Plummer).  Some how, the star corresponding through two years of time, Forster being two years ahead of Alex Wyler.  This difference in time streams makes for an interesting show, and an interesting plot twist.  This is one of those shows which leaves any sane person crying, and then crying some more when you don't think you could.  A dog is the character which somehow is in both time streams.
