Let in the unexpected

One of the segments on my morning radio programme at 98.5 Sonshine FM is a fortnightly look at what’s on at the movies.

Aaron Kamp has been reviewing movies for some time and he posts his reviews at Cinemaniacs, part of the YFC website.

Every couple of weeks we look at what’s in the cinemas and what’s new on DVD.

Today we talked about the new Adam Sandler movie, Reign Over Me.

In the movie, Sandler’s character is a man who lost his family in the September 11 attack on New York City. The grief he experiences is crippling and has left him living a strange, reclusive existence. He runs into his old college roommate played by Don Cheadle. Renewing their friendship is the one thing that begins to help the man recover from his grief.

The movie has Sandler playing a very straight, dramatic role rather than his usual bumbling comedy parts. Not all the critics have been kind to him but many have had a lot of good things to say about his acting in Reign Over Me.
