Killer Elite
Ok, but predictable movie about professional assassins battling SAS killers in 1980. Clumsy dialogue wasted on some good actors, only adequate fights and action sequences, and mediocre directing. Could have done without it. Good thing it was only $1. *

Contagion
Very well made and acted movie about a new, bird-flu like virus that sweeps around the world. Excellent acting from an outstanding cast and directing, as usual, by Soderbergh. Very interesting and pretty realistic, though kind of upbeat at the end. Glad I finally saw it. **

Anonymous
Interesting, well-done dramatization of the theory that the plays attributed to Shakespeare were actually written by Edward de Vere, Earl of Oxford. I have found that theory very plausible for some time, so I enjoyed it, overwrought though it may have been. Glad I saw it. **
