I liked it very much. I had to cry for poor Ursula.

I just recently watched "Charade" and "How to Steal a Million" -- I do love some Audrey Hepburn.

Charade is one of Audrey's best! I love Cary Grant in that movie!
Um... Recently saw Seven Days and Seven Nights. Quite possibly the funniest movie I've ever seen with Harrison Ford. Hilarious; although the ending did drag a little.

Cloverfield - Depressing. Note to self: Watch movies with happy endings. Also, do not watch Cloverfield before Trick or Treating.

Took the kids to see Madagascar 2 - simple fun movie, nothing special though.

Cloverfield - next to that piece of faeces called Sahara (based on Clive Cussler's very good thriller) with wimpy Mathew McConaughey in the lead doing the worst job ever at trashing the main character of the book, this god-awful mish-mash should never have been produced in the first place.

I just watch Atonement. Hol-y crap, I cant remember the last time I cried that hard in a movie. It still makes me sad just thinking about it. On the contrary, it was very, very enjoyable. And, I love movies that make me cry

I hope high hopes. The first one was good. But you know what IS a surprisingly good movie? Rent. Whoo, rock opera! Although I didn't like the way they changed the end.

Saw Twilight the other night, and I did rather like it. I still think the whole vampire genera is kind of retarded, but I do go all squishy for a (bad) romance story... so I totally fell for Twilight. They did indeed fall into each other's pale, pale arms in a swirl of hormones, teen drama, and angry glares. It was everything the reviewer promised me and more .
Might go see it again with my sisters. I did enjoy it, although I'm not sure I would actually call it a "good movie" . |

Psst...genre. Genera is plural of genus.
The vampire is a wonderful thing, in my book. Such an evocative image symbolising so many things that repel and attract mankind. However, the standard run-of-the-mill-angsty-conflicted-existential vampire that has dominated the public imagination since Anne Rice is pretty dumb. I do have to say, they just make me want to roll my eyes like crazy. Ah, much better.

EH, had a bit of a feel of a let's-cash-in-some-more sequel to me. Definitely some funny moments (the penguins!) and probably worth a see if you liked the first one, but don't skip anything you like to go see it.

Seconded.
Just saw Bolt, too. Not bad. Probably not an all-time Pixar classic but an ok movie. I have an 8 year old and see mostly kid movies. Not a lot of free time for daddy. I'd recommend Stardust to those who missed it when it was released last year.

Is the hamster in the ball as funny as he looks in the previews?
