Weekend Movie Line Up

This past Martin Luther King Jr. weekend Jared had a big hockey tournament in Savannah Georgia from Thursday to Sunday night. School was canceled for me because of the snow, so I had the "big" house all to myself. To keep my night occupied I went to the local vision video and decided to rent a bunch of movies and the rule I gave myself is that they had to be ones I hadn't seen before. Now that I have watched them I'll give you a mini review.

This is a GREAT movie, but I really don't want to tell you anything about it. It was recommended by a follow blogger a while back, so I knew nothing about it which I think made the movie even more great!

I first have to say that this might be the first movie I have seen with Angelina Jolie in it because I still feel as though she is a home wrecker to the max, so I vowed to never watch a movie with her in it. Well, I heard this one was good, so I broke the vow. I will say watching her did bother me though, but I got through it
This has some great action scenes. It was good up until the end. It built up this HUGE story line and then left you hanging...yea....one of those. I would give this 4 stars, but because of Angelina...

I know I know your saying, "You have never seen this? What?" And your right, I have never seen this movie, the series, or read the book. I had always heard people use terms such as, "I found my Mr. Darcy" or "Where's my Mr. Darcy" now I know what they mean.
This movie was absolutely wonderful, I recommend it to anyone and everyone. Even Jared said that he has seen it before and liked it.

I saw the cover of this movie in the drama section and got it because I thought that I had seen every movie with Sandra Bullock in it because she is one of my favorites, but apparently not. This movie is a little depressing/sad, but nonetheless good. It is set during WWI, so it was a little odd for me to watching Sandra Bullock play a role during that time period because I feel as though she has a very modern face, but it was still a great love story.

This is such a feel good movie. Based on a true story it is quite amazing how with a lot of persistence and unfailing faith, you can get what you need. The acting isn't the best, but it is worth your time if you need a good uplift.

It really surprises me what PG13 can get away with these days. During the movie I kept looking back at the cover to see if it was rated R, but it wasn't. This movie is not really worth watching, although I do like Emma Stone (the main character) she is quite funny. It's not the worst I've ever seen, but I don't recommend it, save your eyes.
