Sex and the City 2

Let me preface this by saying, that the clothes were lovely. The jewelry was all that I will never be able to afford or lift my hand or finger while wearing it. Every man in this movie had abs that would make my bedside table look saggy. And could hang a coat on each of their individual ass cheeks. With all that being said.... the story line SUCKED!!! They strayed too far away from the concept of the original Sex and the City. If it had been called anything else this movie would have gone straight to dvd. I as a true fan of the show expected this to be a check in on what my favorite girls in New York were doing. Instead it played in to every stereo type possible, and played upon all the generalities that the ladies have been labeled with over the years. So the sad fact of this is that you can wait for the dvd and you can wait until it is past the New Rentals section when you see it. Who knows seeing this might tarnish the image of the girls that we all know and love forever. I just wish they would have given me what I had missed, but I guess Mr King forgot how to do it, at least with these girls...

FINALLY!!! A leading lady that looks like a real person not a stick figure! I thought this movie was great. As it showcased my very own life. Always a friend never a girlfriend, and we also seem to keep sticking up for the liars. As is so aptly shown by this movie. Queen Latifah was wonderful, her comedic timing, and good girl acting really made this movie what it was. Common on the other hand I think was still trying to wrap his head around the fact that they gave him the part. His line delivery at most times was stiff. His joke making lacked proper timing. His kissing scenes were good but that was probably because he had his lips pressed up to Queen Latifah's. In any case this movie is totally worth going to see whether in the movie theater or at home on your couch it is always nice to see someone resembling a normal person on the screen so it should be something we support. Might I also add that this is the first movie other than the Tyler Perry Why Did I Get Married series with a predominantly black cast.

Letters to Juliet

What is the matter with these movie studio’s? Why does Amanda Seyfried keep getting these roles. SHE CAN’T ACT!! The movie was only saved by Christopher Egan. You know he was in that weird NBC show “Kings” he kind of looks like Heath Ledger, and he is also from Sydney. The point is that his comedic timing was excellent and the classic pained stick up your ass British look, which he nailed perfectly. I just wished that whoever did the wardrobe screwed up! His pants were too tight which made his legs look super long and his feet look like Shrek’s. But back to my hugest gripe….Amanda Seyfried. She reminds me of a pale Pekingese, with those big eyes, and what is worse is that she has the same expression on her face no matter what happens, the same look in her eyes. Are you seeing my point? And worst of all she has these large boobs, and the clothing in the movie really made it quite apparent that she has horrible posture. If you got them use them, but I guess some people are to bland in soul and spirit to make this happen. STOP giving her the lead, and you can wait for this to come out on DVD.

Iron Man 2

I went to see this movie because I wanted to see awesome special effects and hear Robert Downey Jr make smarmy ass comments to Pepper (Gwyneth Paltrow’s character). I also wanted to see what kind of super villain Scarlett Johansson would make. The drawbacks of this movie was that the first hour and a half were all about Iron Man’s internal struggle, BORING!! The last 15 – 20 minutes were awesome and the reason that we all go and see something like Iron Man, for the gorgeous special effects. I do wish that they had cultivated the relationship between Stark and Pepper earlier on in the movie, especially when he was dying. He cared more about taking care of his company rather than sharing his love for Pepper who it is obvious that she is his true other half. My point is that just for the shear blow up factor in the last 20 minutes it is worth going to see it in the movie theater. If you just want to watch the depression part you can just go ahead and rent it. In any case I will leave it up to you.

Nightmere on Elm Street

SAVE YOUR MONEY!! This was a movie that should not have been redone. I have never seen the original but it had to have been scarier than what I saw last night. I yawned more than I flinched it was a total waste of money and by the way it is not even worth the wait to get to DVD.
