Movies I've watched this so far this year (in no particular order):
- Yes Man
- Mamma Mia
- Bella
- The Devil Wears Prada
- Harry Potter and the Sorcer's Stone
- Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
- Sense and Sensibility
- Wanted
Here is how I felt about them
- Yes Man -- I love Jim Carrey. I have always loved Jim Carrey. He can do no wrong in my eyes, and I will always love him in films that emphasize his physical comedy. Do you like Ace Ventura? Than you'll like this one. 3 stars.
- Mamma Mia -- Now, I saw this one in when it was in theaters and thought it was OK. However, I decided I wanted to give it another chance and see if I could love it more. However, that idea backfired and I ended up downgrading my rating on netflix. I'm sorry, it was THAT bad. Pierce Brosnan was a kill-joy. 2 stars.
- Bella -- I'm embarrassed to admit this, but Ciara bought me this movie as part of my bridesmaids gift for her JUNE wedding. However, in the midst of all the wedding craziness, I lost the movie. Fast forward to Christmas, my mom found it somewhere in their house and gave it back to me! Yay! So I finally watched it this week, and wow, it was fantastic. A little slow moving, and certainly sad, but it was very very well done and beautiful and romantic but not in the sappy or ripping clothes off kind of way. More like romantic in the folklore/Edgar Allen Poe/Nathaniel Hawthorne/Mozart kind of way. Bottom line, if you haven't seen it, do. 4 stars.
- The Devil Wears Prada -- I've seen this movie too many times to count. I still love it. 4 stars.
- Harry Potter and the Sorcer's Stone & Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets -- We got Harry Potter Scene It for Christmas. No further explanation needed. 3 stars.
- Sense and Sensibility -- This is the new BBC version from 2007. It is WONDERFUL! Rent it. 4 stars.
- Wanted -- The cinematography was cool. The action was cool. The plotline was so painfully terrible, with so many holes. And too much violence. Overall, not worth it. 2 stars.
