Movie Review

Name of Movie: The Pacifier Language: English Rating: PG 13 Brief Synopsis: Ahoy! U.S Navy Seal Shane Wolfe is on another of his military missions!  Perhaps he can maneuver a water-scooter perfectly well or direct a troop of commandos flawlessly, but a tinkling pacifier or a soiled diaper is certainly not his bargain.  On track of a file of national importance, Captain Wolfe is 'obliged' (I'm too obliged to his obligation to insert a 'compelled' in there instead) to 'babysit' a family of five tiresome and rebellious kids, with no 'highway option'! Flustered by the Captain's knack of complete discipline, the children are only too glad to bite back.   But will things take a turn, when Wolfe and the kids establish a mutual understanding? Will reckless fifteen-year-old Zoe, sullen thirteen-year-old Seth and childish eight-year-old Lulu, reform for the better? Will our military fanatic Shane Wolfe transform into someone more humane?  ...

Gnashed into bits? :( Or does Mickey wear it on her head now? :\ Send me a photo whichever one of the two.  :) Last week we learnt how to tell the time in French.  Pretty tedious for 11 o'clock, if you please. Pun intended. Knuckle-knocks not very frequent , thankfully. Neither are the thumb-fiddles. No question as regards the eye-droops- French is incapacitated to give me those! We're having fun galore learning French!:)  I miss your hot chocolat terribly. Something like the warm gust of the Niagara trickling into my throat. Yesterday when I was ...
