Rating: ★★★☆☆ | Meek housewife Thelma joins her friend Louise, an independent waitress, on a short fishing trip. Their trip becomes a flight from the law when Louise shoots and kills a man who tries to rape Thelma at a bar. They decide to flee to Mexico, picking up the charming thief J.D. along the way, as the law closes in behind them.

My Rating: ★★★★☆ | Following science teacher Ryland Grace, who wakes up on a spaceship light-years from home with no memory of who he is or how he got there. As his memory returns, he uncovers his mission: solve the riddle of a mysterious substance causing the sun to die out, and save Earth from extinction — but an unexpected friendship means he may not have to do it alone.

Rating: ★★★★★ | Flightplan is a gripping psychological thriller that kept me hooked from the first minute. What begins as a mother’s desperate search for her missing daughter on a plane turns into a shocking mystery filled with twists. I never saw the air marshal’s betrayal coming. The writing is clever, the suspense constant, and Jodie Foster delivers a powerful, believable performance. I wish I’d watched it sooner — it’s an unforgettable, edge-of-your-seat experience.
