Films '13: Movie Weekend

I can't remember what weekend I saw these, must have been when I was being lazy and watched TV all day. I've been meaning to watch these films, and finally got a weekend all to myself to do just that.

Let's start off with Constantine, I like it. Although I though it lacked in some of the cinematography, I wish it would have been a bit darker. The whole story I loved, and I would like to see more. Definitely watch it again. 3.5/5 

Lockout, let's be honest, the only reason I wanted to watch this was because of Joseph Gilgun. Some of the special effects were lacking, it was an okay movie, better than what I thought it would be. They should have picked a different guy to play Snow. I swear I thought at any moment Liam Neeson was going to show up and save Maggie Grace. 2.5/5

Silver Linings Year Book though, it's a must watch. I might be bias, but Jennifer is just so lovely. Watch it, watch it right now. 5/5

Films '13: This Is 40

I went to see this movie on Monday. It was ok, it had its funny moments. But if I were you, I'd just wait until it came on DVD.

3/5

Films '13: Seeking a Friend for the End of the World

I've loved Keira since PotC, and my goodness you just need to see her in The Jacket. Actually you need to do yourself a favor and go watch The Jacket right now, Adam Brody is in it, and it's just really good.

I also love my girl in Pride and Prejudice. So when I heard she was in this movie, I was ready to watch it. But then I saw the trailer and I didn't like what I saw, I decided to wait until it was on DVD. I'm glad I did, because this movie was disappointing, it was missing something, I just can't put my finger on it.

Some of the parts were just not that interesting, that I found myself paying attention to other things other than the movie itself. Kiera is such a great actress, she can bring so depth to her characters, I felt like she didn't have that open range to bring that out with her character Penny, i did catch a fleeting glimpse. Also, I don't really care much for Steve Carell or his character.

TL;DR Movie was ok, but it could have been better.

2.5/5

Films '13: The Perks of Being a Wallflower

I like watching movies, a lot. But sometimes I forget which ones I've seen. I'm hoping that through the course of this year, I'll remember to write them down, and maybe that way I can get an idea of what I've watched this year. I will be tagging it Films '13.

I woke up this morning around nine, I heated up some brownies, and proceeded to watch this film while I ate candy, because obviously I'm a mature adult.

I was immediately drawn into the movie, Patrick was my favorite, and I just felt bad for him loving someone that had to keep what they had a secret. Emma's accent made me want to laugh, it was just adorable, it was nice seeing her in something outside of the HP movies. I loved the music. It was a good indie movie, or at least that's what it felt like. I would recommend you watch it, if you're into that kind of stuff.

4/5 stars
