Color of Money

Been a while since seeing this one but glad I did.  This one is a little too long for a first date movie but is one that is okay to rent!  Paul Newman, Tom Cruise, and Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio shine in this movie classic from the 80's.

The Ice Man

True story about Mafia Hitman Richard Kuklinski, allegedly responsible for killing over 100 people. Eventually, he is caught and was serving to two life sentences before his death in 2006.

Okay to rent but is definitely not a first date movie.

End of Watch

Jake Gyllenhaal and Michael Peña in a documentary style movie about to LAPD cops out busting bad guys and making things happen in their area!  However, things take a turn for the worse when a gang has them targeted to die.

Slow start and the documentary style may detract some from watching.  Would hold as a first date movie but do believe it is "Okay to Rent" for a rainy day or a snow day like today (in our area).

Superman - The Man of Steel

Here is the newest of the Superman movies.  Has some details not seen in other versions and is less comedy and more "DC Comic" like.  Safe first date movie; should be good with renting it.  Just be careful; the actor in the movie is definitely in shape!

RIPD

Movie with Jeff Bridges and Ryan Reynolds as a pair of Rest In Peace Department enforcement officers. Killed in the line of duty, chosen police officers are re-incarnated to serve in the RIPD for a term of 100 years.  During that time, they are tasked with arresting criminals who have also died but are stuck between Heaven and Hell.

Entertaining movie, okay to rent but glad to have rented it instead of paying a premium at the movie theater. Has the love after death theme mixed in but would pick other movies for a first date if given the choice.
