IN THEATRES NOW
Wimbledon - Romantic Comedy
Wait till it comes out on Video...The $1.99 rack even. Slow moving, no real drama, no shock when it comes to the ending.
Rating - *1/2 - Some moments make you chuckle...Not long though
IN VIDEO STORES NOW
Fear of the Dark - Horror
Nothing scarry about this movie in any way. Lights go out...Monsters appear to loud rock-n-roll music. In the closet, under the bed, in the walls...All the same stuff...Only thing that saves this movie is a really cute older brother. He better be at least 18 in real life or I feel dirty.
Rating - *** - 2 stars are just for the brother =)
Maid in Manhattan - Romantic Comedy
A good, can't believe I am saying this, J.Lo movie. Great plot, great flow, great story. The movie keeps up the pace and keeps you interesting. The son is just adorable, and it makes you feel good, unless you are single of course. Break out the Bon-Bons!
Rating - **** - I'll watch it again every few months or so
Chasing Liberty - Romantic Comedy
Mandy Moore - Hot guy from the UK. Moore plays the President's daughter (Seems like I have seen this plot before...Hmmm...) and goes aganist her dad's orders and flees the secret service, so she think. The hot brit is actually a London based Secret Service agent and over the next few days, he falls in love with her. I can see myself falling for him too. This movie really makes you feel all mushy inside. Great romantic story, great comedy, fine as heck Brit...Who could ask for more?
Rating - ***** - Watch it at least once every month or two that you are single and once again after about 2 weeks of dating, with the boyfriend of course! =)
Jawbreaker - Teen Flick
Uhm...Cute the first time...Okay the second...Not sure it will stay in my life as a movie I want to see again and again, except for the hot Drama boy. Plot is okay, characters are stupid, but hey...Its a teen flick.
Rating - ** - I would watch this again before I saw Wimbledon again
What a Girl Wants - Teen Flick/Romantic Comedy
Girl sets out to find her dad. Changes who she is to fit his lifestyle. Falls for a Brit Boy...Dad changes ways and goes back to Girl's Mom. Boy travels with dad to be reunited with London Girlfriend (Girl). Kinda predictable, kinda fun, cute story.
Rating - *** - Watch it with your neices or little sister...They will love it
I am about to pop in Urban Ghost Story...doubt there will be anything to report on this...I will probably fall asleep while watching. If it it deserves a *, then I will add my report. If not, save the $3.99 and wait till it comes on extended cable or some horrid friend makes you watch it because they adore it. Then, dump friend and find someone with taste.
From my lovely Theatre with a Bed for a chair, this is Bedroom Theatre for the Week of September 22nd!
