First Sunday

Genres: Comedy, Drama
Actors: , , , ,

The characters were stereotypical and just not funny. The movie I had expected to be a true comedy ended up being a weak attempt at a “feel good” movie that aimed at teaching a played out lesson of right and wrong.

Juno

Genres: Comedy, Drama
Actors: , , , ,

Saw Juno this week. I really liked this movie. It really flowed from beginning to end, in a way you wouldn’t expect from a movie that’s about teenage pregnancy. The characters seem like real people and they’re very likable. Juno finds out she’s pregnant, she tries to get an abortion, but can’t go through with it.

I try to play my role as a man and keep some of my feelings but this time I couldn’t help my self crying….

Charlie Wilson’s War

Genres: Comedy, Drama
Actors: , , , ,

The movie revolves around how the operation unfolds and shows Wilson’s lavish life of partying and women, as well. Julia Roberts gives a great performance as well. The movie portrays life in the 1980’s well, and does a nice job showing realistic war scenes. There is also some political humor and satirical lines that balance the serious tone of the film…..

P.S. I LOVE YOU

Genres: Drama
Actors: , , , ,

The best description I can give to my experience watching P.S. I Love You is being stuck in an elevator for two hours with the most mundane of music being piped incessantly into my surroundings and an unnerving feeling that the walls are encroaching on me…..
