April's Movies

Time for Aprils movies, again, I'm running behind on the aim for a movie a day, but I'm trying, I find it difficult to watch a movie during the week for some reason or another, so I have been trying to get the numbers up during the weekend, but that isn’t always the case, I will make it my mission to have an average on one movie a day, my new years eve could be one full of movies!

So, as usual I will start with the disappointing films of April, The first has to be Nine Dead, It starred Mellissa Joan Hart, and it was a good story line, but just poorly executed! After watching previous Nicolas Spark adaptations I have been impressed and moved (The Notebook, Walk To Remember, preferred the books though) so I expected similar things from Dear John, however this wasn’t the case, I didn’t feel a connection between the lead characters, which is a shame, because I think they are both great, but the film left me feeling empty, and I honestly didn’t care what happened with them.

Kick Ass, was truly just KICK ASS! It was a brilliant film, and truly entertaining and just amazing! Best film of the month by far!

A close second was Jersey Girl, I thought it was an underrated Kevin Smith film, and one I had previously avoided due to Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez staring in it together, because be honest, we all remember the train wreck that was Gigli! But I loved Jersey Girl, the few scenes they had together were moving and they had great chemistry, and everything about the film was heart warming, and a great change for Kevin Smith!

And need I say any more than Iron Man! Bloody awesome, I can’t wait to see the second one!

March's Movies!

So it’s a little over due, but I figured it’s about time I add my list of movies for March. Let’s start with the negatives. I hated, HATED, Leap Year! It was a boring predictable “rom com” with no sign of comedy or believably romance! It was poorly acted, and it wasn’t even released in a leap year, surely that would of made more sense, and possibly more bucks?

Another film I wasn’t too impressed with was “defendor” I expected more from it, I love Woody Harrelson, but I felt as though the film couldn’t live up to my expectations, but honestly, I think if I didn’t have any expectations, I still would have been left disappointed with the film. However, there are a lot of films during March that I watched, which simply, were not worth the time, EG Decent 2, Are We Done Yet? Old Dogs

Now the films I enjoyed, Percy Jackson, I thought it was a fun movie, easy going, but action packed, and thoroughly entertaining. Cop Out didn’t disappoint me, I expected so much because I LOVE Kevin Smith and he delivered a great film!

Slammin’ Salmon was a hidden gem, I had never heard of the film, and my brother recommended it, and it was funny, light hearted, and kept me entertained, and finally, the classic City Of God, I was introduced to this film when I was doing an A Level in Film Studies! I loved it from the moment I saw it! It’s a modern day classic, with a realistic image of growing up in the slums. It’s a must see! No excuses! See it now!
