CONTRABAND

This is an engaging  action packed thriller with Mark Wahlberg's signature all over it.   He's fiercely masculine, sexy and tough.  Defends his wife and kids with supernatural physicality and enjoys the danger along the way.  This 3 star film is worth the price of admission to just see Giovanni Ribisi perform as a drug lord seeking his take after a drug shipment becomes bungled.  This was a great way to spend a cloudy afternoon after gym and Abe's walk with Foundation residents.

We pay homage to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. today.  How different the world would be had his life not been shortened by a bullet sent with hatred.  We have not been able to cleanse ourselves from this hatred to this day.  Martin we need you more than ever.

  1. I saw the preview for the film when we went to see "Iron Lady" and agreed to see it with Ira if he wanted.

    The racial divide and hatred divide seems bigger, not smaller, which is really sad!
