This was more touching than I expected it to be. It was not a laugh a minute comedy, but did showcase a group of friends using a game of tag to stay in each others lives.

The videos at the end show the real life men this movie is based on. Showing that part of the mall scene was based directly on real life events.

Starring: Jeremy Renner, Ed Helms, Jake Johnson, LilRel Howery, Jon Hamm, Annabelle Wallis, Isla Fisher, Hannibal Buress, Nora Dunn, Leslie Bibb, Rashida Jones

Pets of the Week June 18, 2018

Kai is about as fun-loving as they come, offering everyone he meets a big grin and a playful swish of the tail. He’s just a little over 18 months old, so this handsome brown and tan Retriever mix is chock-full of energy. He loves spending his time running around with a canine friend, especially if that buddy is as rough-and-tumble as he is himself. He’s always delighted to receive a new toy, which he’ll gladly share with his furry friends. The one thing he’s not too fond of is cats, which he sees as wonderful things to chase. Kai has a sweet, loving personality and his medium size is ideal. He is hoping to find a family who will embrace his high energy and provide him the training his sharp mind craves.

Skittles is one fun, playful little kitty. In fact, he’s so full of energy, you might think he’s just eaten an entire bag of the colorful sweets for which he’s named. At just over 4 months old, it’s not surprising this adorable brown and white Tabby is so spunky. He loves to spend his time batting around toys and wrestling with a feline friend. Skittles is a loving boy with his humans as well, vying for attention and happily accepting cuddles and scratches. He’s rather like a fearless little boy who wants to try anything and everything, and once he’s explored his environment and filled his day with as much fun as possible, he’ll find his favorite spot and snooze.

Hereditary



I am not sure how I feel about this one. This is another movie you can take a face value – the events happened as we see them – or there is mental illness involved along the maternal line. Making just about everyone in the movie an unreliable narrator.

Hereditary is a slow burn, atmospheric piece. Definitely some WTF moments in the movie.

We start with the funeral of Annie’s mother. Someone she was not close to. After an accident and another funeral, events begin to spiral out of control.

During the course of the movie, we learn her mother had Disassociative Identity Disorder and Dementia. Her brother killed himself as a teenager. Her daughter has something going on. She herself slept walked and almost killed her kids a few years ago. All of this makes Annie and her kids unreliable narrators.

I prefer to think Annie experienced a psychotic break instead of the devil-cult ending we get.

Starring: Toni Collette, Milly Shapiro, Gabriel Byrne, Alex Wolff, Ann Dowd

Pets of the Week June 11, 2018

Gilmore is just about as happy as they come, always wearing a huge, goofy grin on his face and wagging not just his tail, but his entire body when he meets new people. He’s a dapper fellow, a 5-year-old Pointer-Retriever mix with a brown and white coat and sparkling hazel eyes. Gilmore is one of those dogs who wants to be involved with whatever the closest human is doing, cheerfully romping at his or her side, offering that signature grin and his undivided attention. He doesn’t seem particularly interested in toys but he does appear to want to make friends with other dogs, so he very well may be happiest in a home where he has furry siblings with whom he can play. Sweet, happy Gilmore wins over everyone he meets because he is simply that: happy.

Osiris may not think he’s quite as worthy of worship as the Egyptian god for whom he’s named, but he is certainly self-assured. He’s a smart, cocky, pretty kitty with a very handsome buff and white coat and eyes that almost exactly match the color of his hair. He’s very friendly toward both humans and other cats and is likely to show off a bit to get attention. He loves contact and will rub all over anyone who wants to spend time with him. Osiris is only about a year and a half old, so he’s still quite young at heart, although he seems to prefer to spend his time just chilling out in a favorite spot so his humans can admire his handsome looks rather than wasting his energy playing with toys. Don’t you need this divine feline in your life?

Pets of the Week June 4, 2018

Ramon is a true lady’s man, smoothing in for a kiss and snuggle with just about everyone he meets, human or canine. He’s a handsome fellow as well, a 5 1/2-year-old Shepherd mix with a tan coat accented with a charcoal muzzle. Ramon’s not small either, weighing in at about 68 pounds, so he’d love to have a big yard in which to run. Despite his large size, however, he’s a very well-behaved leash walker. He also seems to be perfectly fine sharing his space with children, and he appears unfazed by cats, other than possibly wanting to play. Ramon has a lot of love to give. Won’t you welcome him into your heart and home?

The name Annabelle appears to have a variety of meanings, the simplest of which is “lovable,” which could not be more fitting for this endearing cat. She’s a beautiful girl as well, an orange and white Calico with a coat that’s dominated by a clean, bright white. She’s about 18 months old, so she’s no longer in that bouncy kitten stage, but that doesn’t mean she isn’t playful. At times, she’s content to just sit in her favorite spot, watching the silly antics of the humans, accepting an ear scratch or head pat. At other times, she wants to roll around on her back, batting at your hand, a toy, or a passing foot. This lovely lady will bring love and laughter to any home.
