Unknown Betrayer and the Grieving Son

 Tuesday: The Good Half (2023)

      Renn has to fly home for his mother's funeral. On the plane he meet Zoey. They hit it off and exchange numbers. When Renn arrives at his dad's house, he at first tries to avoid his dad and his sister. He doesn't know what to say to them and feels guilty for not being around. His sister doesn't let him hide and convinces him to help her the next day with funeral arrangements. Unable to deal Renn meets up with Zoey in the city. She is his escape from his real problems. Renn struggles to be there for his family and really face his grief. I thought this movie was alright.

Friday: Black Bag (2025)

      The marriage of two special agents is put to the test when the wife, Kathryn is suspected of stealing a top secret weapon. Her husband, George, has to investigate. He wants to protect her. He is unsure if she did it or not. George hosts a dinner with all the agents he suspects, hoping to figure out who did it. The situation becomes more and more complicated. This movie was good. It's very intelligent. I will be honest I didn't always understand what they were saying. I think that might just have been because it was special agent lingo.

Surprise Chorizo and the Floating Castle

         Well after two months I was finally able to go to a restaurant on my list. I went to Tight Tacos, the SE Division location. There is neighborhood parking on the streets behind it, but you might have to drive around a little. It is a small restaurant next to other restaurants and shops. They were only open for take out but there were picnic tables you could sit at on the sidewalk. The tables were in the shade so it was nice on a warm day. From what I could see inside it was clean and modern. There is some color and hanging Christmas lights. The service was good. I got three tacos: chicken, carnitas, and asada. I think that I got chorizo instead of asada. It was actually the best one flavor wise. The carnitas meat was good but there wasn't a lot of flavor.

And they have tables for you to sit ...

One night she meets and Italian man, Matteo. They hit it off and he tells her about his empty villa in Italy that he never uses. Anna takes this as an invitation to use her pre-paid plane ticket and fly to Italy and stay at his empty villa. She gets caught by his family. They assume she is his fiancee and she goes along with it. Anna is introduced to the rest of the family, including Matteo's adopted brother Michael. Michael and Anna immediately hit it off, but can't do anything because she is engaged to his brother. When Matteo shows up things get even more complicated. I thought this movie was alright. It's cute and nice to have a new romantic comedy come out in theaters . It's just a little cheesy and over the top for me. Almost like a Hallmark movie or the like.  Saturday: The Bad Guys...
