This movie has to be watched under specific conditions--you need a slightly warped perspective to find it good. I have lent my video to a few friends...some think that it's a good movie, others think it's the stupidest thing that they have ever seen. Personally, I'd rank it somewhat ahead of a lot of the dreck that passes for entertainment on tv nowadays. As to whether I'd actually go to a movie theatre and pay good money to watch it there...maybe not, depending on how bored I was!

Bedtime for Bonzo
(1951)
An underappreciated movie
4 December 2002
Sure, it's a bit corny and "preachy" by today's standards, but when I watched it for the first time, I was somewhat impressed. When taken in the context of it's time (the early fifties), it stands up fairly well. Ronald Reagan was a better actor than he is given credit for by many people.
It's a Wonderful Life
(1946)
It's a wonderful movie!

A true classic. The best movie ever made, in my opinion. Even after innumerable viewings, the final scene still brings a lump to my throat. If you can watch this movie and not be moved by it...you better check to see if you still have a pulse.
