Typically when we first read a book and then see the film based on the book we are disappointed. In the case of Life of Pi, I enjoyed the 3-D film directed by Ang Lee a lot more than the book, although the film follows the plot quite closely.Life of Pi

This delightful French comedy made me laugh many times. The charm rests in brining together two people from the opposite side of the French social spectrum.The Intouchables

I remember the musical on which this film is based as the best musical that I had seen on Broadway. Victor Hugo’s story was powerful, the singing superb and the acting believable. I felt deeply violated by the film adaptation of the musical.Les Miserables

The Bourne Legacy. Jason Bourne (Matt Damon) does not show up in person in this film. Maybe that is why it was received more poorly than the previous Bourne film. The film was actually entertaining. Total Recall. In this futuristic film only small portions of the earth are still inhabitable.Brief Notes on Holiday Movies
