This movie is without a doubt hilarious. I highly recommend anyone see it. Just remember that of course it’s going to be crude and some parts are gross, but it’s a laugh out loud, hold your sides funny movie. I haven’t laughed that much in theaters in ages.

The movie opens with a really awkward sex scene between the main character Annie, and her must take testosterone patches for breakfast douchy screw buddy. FB he calls himself. He’s terrible in the sack but she stays with him anyways because she’s lonely. Oh honey, no.

The movie follows Annie along as her best friend gets married. Basically Annie spirals more and more out of control with her life and hits rock bottom. Along the way there are so many different moments of so funny and awful things that happen to the poor girl. I also love that there are moments of serious heart and reflection as her friends call her out on her bull and tell her to cut it out.

Definitely see this movie, preferably with your girlfriends, but guys will enjoy it too.

I went into this movie today not expecting much, just some pretty cinematography. But I left very satisfied. I thought this movie had a great storyline that kept me interested from beginning to end, and despite criticism I thought Robert Pattinson and Reese Witherspoon had excellent chemistry on the screen.

I am a huge Reese Witherspoon fan and when I found out she did her own elephant stunts in the movie I was even more so. That woman can do anything! I also would love to get my hands on the dresses she wears in the movie. Gorgeous!

The hardest thing for me to watch in the film was the implied cruelty that the ringleader inflicts on the animals, especially the elephant Rosie. I teared up when they showed him beating her with a bull stick. Heartbreaking! But it just made me hate the villain even more. I loved that Rob showed some manliness in this film and he also smiled a lot more than he has in his past movies. He is so hot when he smiles.

It was a great chick flick and I definitely recommend checking it out.

I’m going to check out Water for Elephants on Friday. I have read some mixed sensa reviews but I still have high hopes. I love Reese Witherspoon and of course Rob Pattinson. The cinematography looks beautiful so if nothing else there will be that. I haven’t read the book so I have no clue what to expect. I just hope it has a happy uplifting ending. I hate movies that leave me depressed. Keep your eyes peeled for a movie review.

I finally got around to watching this movie today. I’ve been really bad about watching movies lately, and I’m a huge movie buff. I blame the cancellation of my Netflix account. Anywho, I am a huge huge Reese Witherspoon fan and this movie didn’t disappoint. I have never seen her in a quasi tomboy roll before and I thought she did an amazing job. I didn’t feel like she was acting. I never do.

So the premise of the movie is that Reese is a professional softball player named Lisa who just got cut from the team she was on for 12 years. Her whole world is basically shattered. She is also dating Owen Wilson who plays this egotistical ladie’s man/professional baseball player named Manny. I love how he has disposable toothbrushes and sweatshirt sets for his conquests so they don’t have to do the walk of shame. I’m pretty sure I’ve dated this man.

Lisa also goes out on an incredibly awkward first date with Paul Rudd’s character George, who is also going through a huge life crisis. His father got him into an incredible amount of legal trouble and his world is crashing down around him as well. They meet for dinner and George attempts to unload on her. She cuts him off and makes him sit there and eat quietly. Of course George is instantly smitten (who wouldn’t be, it’s Reese Witherspoon) and cheers up right away.

Then Manny, the total ladies man falls for Lisa after she opens up to him about getting cut from the team. He asks her to move in with him. I love that they’re both kind of stunted in the romance department. George is an ass but he’s kind of likeable in his assery (yeah it’s a word!).

The movie kind of peters out for me at the end. I think they could have done something more with it, but it’s still a cute one and worth renting.

~Sleepless in Seattle~

Sam Baldwin: Well, how long is your program? Well, it was a million tiny little things that, when you added them all up, they meant we were supposed to be together… and I knew it. I knew it the very first time I touched her. It was like coming home… only to no home I’d ever known… I was just taking her hand to help her out of a car and I knew. It was like… magic.

~While You Were Sleeping~

“Jack: [Lucy's sitting in the booth at the station taking tokens for the train. Suddenly someone drops a ring, making her look up] Lucy? I have to ask you a question.
Elsie: Get down on one knee, it’s more romantic.
Saul: Elsie, if he’s proposing let him do it!
Elsie: I *am* letting him do it.
Jack: Can I come in there please?
Lucy: I can’t. Not without a token.
Jack: [he hands one in and goes into the booth] Marry me.
Lucy: Yeah. I love you.
Jack: I love you back”

~When Harry Met Sally~

Harry: Well how about this way. I love that you get cold when it’s 71 degrees out, I love that it takes you an hour and a half to order a sandwich, I love when you get a little crinkle above your nose when you’re looking at me like I’m nuts, I love that after I’ve spent the day with you, I can still smell your perfume on my clothes. And I love that you are the last person I want to talk to before I go to sleep at night. And it’s not because I’m lonely, and it’s not because it’s New Year’s Eve. I came here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to begin as soon as possible.

~The Holiday~

Graham:I am in love with you. I apologize for the blunt delivery, but as problematic as this fact may be, I am in love. With you. And I’m not feeling this because you’re leaving, and not because it feels good to feel this way- which by the way, it does, or did before you went off like that. I can’t figure out the mathematics of this, I just know I love you. Can’t believe how many times I’m saying it. I never thought I’d feel this way again, so that’s pretty phenomenal. But I realize I come with a package deal- 3 for the price of 1. And my package perhaps in the light of day isn’t all that wonderful, but I finally know what I want, and that in itself is a miracle. And what I want is you.

~Keeping the Faith~

Jake: Ok. Well, I’ve been thinking about some of the things you said and you were right.
Anna: About what?
Jake: About us. About me, especially about me.
Anna: So what are you saying Jake?
All Anna’s colleagues: Yeah, what are you saying Jake?
Jake: I’m saying I love you. I’m in love with you. And I’ve been waiting my whole life for someone like you and I’m not gonna let you go. Please don’t go. Anna, I’m not gonna let you go.

~Jerry MacGuire~

I don’t know what I was expecting from this movie. The previews really didn’t tell me much about the plot. I thought it just plain sucked. Overzealous use of the F word, really non-sexy sex scenes and an overall sense of uncomfortableness. I love Mark Ruffalo and I couldn’t stand him in this movie. He’s the sperm donor to a lesbian couple, and when his biological daughter turns 18 she contacts him. At first you think the plot of the story is that he enriches their lives and helps each kid. Instead, he almost breaks up the family by having an affair with one of the moms. It’s AWFUL.

Mark Ruffalo is supposed to be pretty well endowed, and he talks about using natural male enhancement. I just find it hard to believe that a committed lesbian would all of a sudden want to have sex with a man. What is that? This movie just proves that I can’t stand indie films and I don’t know why I even bother watching them.

I didn’t mind a movie about a lesbian couple having a regular life. That part was cool, it was very modern times. I would have hated this movie it was a straight couple. I like my movies to be romantic and fun, and I can’t stand it when they’re about infidelity. Two thumbs way way down.

A few weekends ago I went and saw Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1. It’d been awhile since I’d last seen a Harry Potter movie and I was once again blown away by the talented cast. I was riveted to the screen for the entire movie and was sad when the credits rolled. The final movie is going to be so bittersweet. I guess all that will be left to do is travel to Florida and check out Harry Potter World. I think I could see myself getting an orlando car rental and trolling around through Harry Potter land sipping on butter beer and checking out the scenery. Maybe someday I’ll get to go!

Now here’s a movie I never thought I’d enjoy. These kind of movies just scream heartbreak. But there was just something about it. It was such an odd movie. There’s a man, Henry, who travels through time, never knowing when he’s going to go, and where he’s going to end up. Talk about needing life insurance quotes! My heart breaks for his wife, Clare. She’s so good about standing by, always waiting for her Henry. I think there’s so much to this story that must have been left out in the book. It really makes me need to read it.
Alba, their daughter, can time travel to, but has a little more control over when she goes. What a crazy life that must be for the wife and mother of time travelers. She’s always left in the dark, always wondering when she’ll see her husband again. Then later in the story he knows what year he’s going to die, and so does his little girl.

The little girl Alba (gosh they picked an ugly name) is so wise beyond her years. What’s interesting is that even though he dies, he’s still back at times, because of the whole time traveling thing. It’s all so darn confusing. I can’t say that I loved the ending, but it wasn’t terrible. It had that bittersweet quality to it.

A story like this really makes me appreciate my life with D. I may complain about his not being home at night because of work, but at least I know WHEN he’ll be home. I’m no stranger to being alone for some important times, but I’ve never had it that bad.

I didn’t think I’d want to watch this movie, but I’m so glad that I did. It was adorable! I should have known I would identify with Julie, as a blogger myself. Bloggers everywhere need to watch this movie and laugh while Julie talks about her readers.

While I don’t think this movie was worthy of an Oscar nomination, I did think it was a cute and fun watch. Definitely a movie to rent or Netflix for all you bloggers out there. I was inspired by Julie’s story. The idea that you could become such a huge hit from your blog is I think most blogger’s dream come true. Even if I was only able to make enough from my blog to cover my eventual funeral cost, I would consider that a success.

The problem with Julie & Julia is that it makes me want to bake. I’m trying to diet and get in shape for my wedding, and after watching that movie I made my first batch of cinnamon rolls. Maybe I should start a blog on healthy dessert recipes. But what is the fun in that?

YAYYYYYY! I love this trailer. Though I’m sorry to say, Jacob looks sexier than Edward. Why must the makeup look so goofy? In the books I’m all about team Edward, but these movies…Taylor you’re so fine. I can’t wait for this movie, it’s by far my favorite of the series.
