The Hardest Thing Is Loving Someone...

Posted : 1 month, 2 weeks ago on 17 May 2008 08:43 (A review of The Wedding Date)

and Then Having the Courage to Let Them Love You back...

My favorite quote!

Kat Ellis: You know what pisses me off? I've been spilling my guts all weekend and I don't know a thing about you.
Nick Mercer: [pause] I'm allergic to fabric softener. I majored in comparative literature at Brown. I hate anchovies. And I think I'd miss you even if we never met.

I really enjoy watching this movie. Dermot Mulroney has such an amazing part of playing the escort/love guru. Debra Messing's character has no choice but to fall in love with his gorgeous smile and charming personality.

This movie proves that love can be found anywhere...even in the Yellow Pages. Also that everyone makes mistakes, its just the way we deal with them and learn from them that really matters.

A Time To Dance

Posted : 1 month, 3 weeks ago on 12 May 2008 11:24 (A review of Footloose)

My Favorite Quote!

Ren: You like Men At Work?
Willard: what men?
Ren: Men at work.
Willard: well where do they work?
Ren: No, they're a music group.
Willard: well what do they call themselves?
Ren: Oh no! What about the Police?
Willard: What about 'em?
Ren: You ever heard them?
Willard: No, but I seen them.
Ren: Where, in concert?
Willard: No, behind you.

Footloose is such a terrific movie. From the shoe-stomping opening credits to its down and dirty small town ways, I love it so much.

Ren McCormack and his mom just moved to Bomont and he's having trouble fitting in. When he hears about the no dancing/no loud music laws, Ren (Kevin Bacon) knows he can make a difference. With the help of Ariel (Lori Singer), his dream of a senior prom becomes a reality.

I'd reccommend this film to anyone who enjoys a passionate yet fun-filled story, along with a great soundtrack!

She's The Voice In My Head

Posted : 2 months ago on 30 April 2008 11:30 (A review of Two Weeks Notice)

I have to say that I really enjoy watching this movie. The hilarious dialog and individual characters make this movie worth seeing again and again. I'll admit that its your typical romantic comedy but it also shows deeper issues as well.

The fact that money and power comes with a lot of responsibilty is one. Or that people always arent what they seem. Its very cool to watch the development.

Sandra Bullock, of course, is amazing. Coupled with the charming Hugh Grant, these two have great chemistry. Hugh's character especially makes me laugh because of his pathetic banter with Sandra on which tie he should wear and whatnot. Very amusing.

Quite Funny

Posted : 2 months, 1 week ago on 29 April 2008 07:25 (A review of The Forbidden Kingdom)

Ok, so I'm not an expert when it comes to martial arts movies, but this one I liked. I happen to be a fan of Jackie Chan so it was really fun seeing him in another movie, besides the Rush Hours.

The setting was beautiful and I thought the aspiring boy actor, Michael Angarano, did a good job as the clueless hero. I also liked Jet Li's characters, although I am not all that familiar with his previous movies.

This movie was hilarious and quite enjoyable. I really liked it.

The Art Of Crime

Posted : 2 months, 1 week ago on 27 April 2008 02:39 (A review of How to Steal a Million)

My favorite Quote!

Simon Dermott: Why must it be this particular work of art?
Nicole Bonnet: You don't think I'd steal something that didn't belong to me, do you?
Simon Dermott: Excuse me, I spoke without thinking.

I absolutely adore this movie! Its my favorite Audrey Hepburn movie of all time.

Nicole Bonnet is the daughter of a millionaire who makes his living faking masterpeices. Her father recently loans their Cellini Venus (a fake done by her grandfather), to an art museum. When they find out that it will be tested at a technical examination, Nicole takes matters into her own hands.

She recruits a "handsome, blue-eyed ruffian", Simon Dermott, to help her steal back the Venus. And the rest I'll leave a mystery. But I definitely recommend this movie to anyone who loves a good solid plot and hilarious dialog.

I'm Down, I've Got The 411.

Posted : 2 months, 1 week ago on 26 April 2008 04:06 (A review of 10 Things I Hate About You)

I really don't know how many times I've watched this movie, but it never gets old.

10 things I Hate About You is a modern version of The Taming of the Shrew by William Shakespeare. Before I watched this movie, I had not seen The Taming of the Shrew. Regrettably, I still haven't seen it, but 10 Things I Hate About You was awesome all the same.

On the surface this movie may seem to be some highschool chick flick. But it really isn't. Patrick Verona, played by Heath Ledger, is one of the main characters who pursues Kat Stratford, played by Julia Stiles. In what started out as a buisness deal, he finds himself falling for Kat. Well, I'll leave the rest up to you to find out.

Julia Stiles is amazing. She is one of my favorite actresses. This movie is definitely not an ordinary chick flick. It took a work by an amazing playwright and set it in a modern sense, making the movie truly spectacular.

Not As Bad As It Should Be

Posted : 2 months, 1 week ago on 25 April 2008 11:36 (A review of Moulin Rouge)

Ok so when you first watch this movie, it may seem girly and dumb. I mean, the songs are not original, and the storyline is a bit cheesy. But I gotta say, I did like it. Alright, yes, I did fast forward the Like A Virgin remix part, (Gosh, that was really creepy.) But beyond that, this movie really gets to me. I mean the the whole point of it is "The Greatest Thing You'll Ever Learn Is Just To Love And Be Loved In Return." How sweet is that! Alright, alright call me a hopeless romantic but I loved this movie. Ok?!? Deal with it. :P
