reviews.
okay, so i have to express this on livejournal because 1) there is noone to talk to online anymore and 2) i still can't believe it...
i know i know. of course it was going to suck.....
So today, Kat and I had a nice little dinner at Pitrelli's in Mason, OH which i do recommend. cute little italian place.
And i even have to say that yeah, i thought the new justin timberlake album was eh decent enough-- you know my secret love for that guy... kind of boring as far as i could tell, but eh, it wasn't like the worst thing i've ever heard in my whole entire life like some people may claim. I've been told that it's more interesting if i actually listen to it. so we'll see i guess.
So, everything was going well until.... we went to see the new Zach Braff movie the Last Kiss. (i consider it the new zach braff movie, because you know i liked garden state so much.... i was hoping for another cute little film that just about anyone could enjoy). no! i feel like... i've been duped.... even after the first bit i was like okay okay so this isn't going to be like garden state at all... but it looks like it's going to be cute, right? wrong. not so good at all. what i hated the most was that they had so many different character lines, but i never felt like i connected with any of them. i just can't help but feel like i'm never going to get those 2 hours of my life back, ever, ever, again. The beginning dragged with lots of "okay?" moments. There were characters that i wanted to like so badly, but i was never given a reason to! and i didn't feel sorry for any of them when the point of conflict came around. It was a pretty wishy washy film-- was it supposed to be a romantic comedy? The dramatic parts were pretty over the top and shallow. the comedic parts were generally pretty raunchy. the quaint observations of life were really forced. Generally speaking, you know i love that crap! it's just that this movie did not blend it together well. Okay, so the second half wasn't as terrible as the beginning... but it definitely did not make up for it. Just as i was starting to have hope... just as i was starting to feel an inkling of something, bam. credits. what?! come on!
I'm not great at making intelligent reviews. I'm not great at having opinions either. but god, i can't help but tell you DO NOT watch this movie! don't promote this!

the last thing i have to say... just to be a little a-hole... i too hated the font chosen for the opening credits.
on the side, my brother came home today. i gave him a hug. i guess i do like the guy.
we were talking about movies for a little bit. his girlfriend was there. his girlfriend has never seen the matrix. he said "i'm not sure if you'll beable to understand the movie, but i'll help you out. you should definitely watch it". it made me die from laughter. his girlfriend kind of smacked him a little. he deserved it haha.
