Movies, music and food?
Ξ January 12th, 2008 | → 0 Comments | ∇ Uncategorized |
So over the past few weeks I have seen a few movies both in the theatre and rental. Mind you in the theatre all I have seen as of late were Juno and National Treasure. National Treasure was typical popcorn fair. The modern day Indiana Jones. Nick Cage found his niche. He fit perfectly in the role of bumbling history geek, gone treasure hunter. Helen Mirren was a nice addition to the cast as his Mom. Overall, good movie. Was just as exciting and captivating as the first. If you like that style I recommend it.
As for the take home variety of movies. I have seen The Holiday with Jude Law, Cameron Diaz, Kate Winslet and Jack Black. Again a great feel good chick flick. Mind you, I honestly think most guys would sit down and watch it with you if asked. It’s not over the top chick flick. 
Eastern Promises with Viggo…. mmm and Naomi Watts. Somewhat based on facts surrounding the Russian Mafia in London. Viggo gave a stunning performance, including his ballsy (pardon the pun) naked knife fight in the bath house. Brave and riveting.
I Know Who Killed Me with Lindsay Lohan. Not quite as bad as I thought it would be? At the beginning I had it all figured out, turned out I didn’t at all. The ending was a bit rewarding to discover that there was this creepy unexplained connection between two characters. Her acting wasn’t horrible. But I raise the question, why was she the only stripper in the whole night club who never took her top off???
I keep thinking there is yet another movie I have watched but if I have it currently escapes me. Tomorrow I plan on going to see P.S I love you. I will bring tissue in case it’s needed. I’ve heard some awesome reviews, and how can I not go see it when it has Jeffrey Dean Morgan ( The Dad from Supernatural, and Denny from Greys Anatomy) as well as James Marsters (Spike from Buffy, Milton Fine from Smallville)! I just can’t resist.
Review to follow.
On that note, off to see if my tummy flu this week caused a loss or a gain…
*UPDATE*
Loss.
