Criminal Minds (2005)
Love It
I don't know what the naysayers are talking about. This is amazing! I know every episode of the first 15 seasons of Criminal Minds like the back of my hand, and this reboot is true to the original... it is awesome!!! I LOVE IT!! The characters are true to history. The story arc is great, scary as hell. (OK, the bureaucrat going after the BAU is stale, but what are you doing to do?) Yes, I miss Reid, but they left it open for him to return, so who knows? The show moved on without Morgan and Hotch, so I think it can move past Reid. Anyway, I loved, loved, loved the first two episodes and I literally cannot wait for the rest of the season!!!
Irish Jam (2006)
Cute Movie
This is a cute movie...it's not meant to be an Oscar-winning masterpiece, it is what it is...and it's cute.
The village may be depicted as a bit of an "European Cliché," but it makes the movie all the more charming.
If Irish people really are insulted by it...I honestly don't know why. Why would anyone be insulted as being portrayed as a hard-working, religious, honest people?
I am from the mountains of North Carolina, and often my people are portrayed as "hillbillies." Does that offend me? NO, because some of them are...and even if I don't consider myself a "hillbilly," I am PROUD of where I come from...and proud of my ancestry - ALL of it...the "hillbillies," the "rednecks," and the "educated, Southern don't-want-to-be-associated-with-North Carolina's-past" people...all of them...so, why aren't the Irish proud of this...even if it relies somewhat on cliché'??
