Book and Movie Review.

So I have neglected to write my reviews for the past few movies and books I have read/seen out of pure laziness. So I guess I have some catching up to do, so here it goes.


MOVIES:

Adventureland:Was an all right movie. Although I noticed the actors/actresses did a lot of drinking and driving. I don't know if anyone else who has seen the movie noticed but I sure did. It had some funny punch lines but I wasn't laughing the whole movie. Overall, it's was a good time wasting movie.


Watchmen: I had no idea what this was going to be about but it turned out to be entertaining for the most part. I didn't really enjoy the too long sex scene. I felt like I was watching a porno with my brother sitting right next to me. Horrific experience for sure! But besides the lengthy 'lets make a baby' scene, and the blue guy walking around in nothing (ultimately leading to me falling into fits of giggles every time his penis was shown; kept thinking "Blue Balls") the movie was wicked awesome. Definitely one to add to my collection!


State of Play: First it has Russel Crowe so it just had to be good. One of my favorite actors ever. Downside it also has Ben Affleck, one of my least favorite actors ever. I liked the movie. But as of right now I can't recall what really happened in it. So it must have just been okay, not great.


Fast & Furious 4: Sort of confusing because it's been so long since I have seen the first ones and I had forgotten what happened in them. But I liked it. I'm not really or at all into cars but the story line was cool. Pretty predictable though. Has Paul Walker in it so makes the fact that it is predictable okay.


The Soloist: Really liked this movie. The acting was good, except for when Jamie Foxx plays the Cello he doesn't bob his head around like real celloists do. He sits still which in any orchestra is very uncommon. Robert Downey Jr. acts very well in this movie. Of course the music through out the entire was great! Another one for the movie collection.


BOOKS:

My Sister's Keeper: By Jodi Picoult, A mother and father harvest a daughter to genetically match the elder sister who has a rare form of leukemia. They designed the younger daughter Anna to be the perfect donor match, that way Kate might have a chance at a normal life. After many donations and remissions and relapses Anna finally takes a stand and says no more. She sues her parents for medical emancipation from her parents. Her sister has gone into kidney failure and Anna doesn't want to donate the her kidney. The story is very good. I have never cried from a book until I read this one. A touching story, that challenges what is right and wrong. It has been made into a movie and will be released later this year, or early next year.

Must Go...

1.This girl that always wears clothes that are 6 sizes too small for her. Every time she comes on a Saturday night I want to cover her up. I mean I wouldn't be able to fit in some of the things she wears. Besides it's just plain gross!
2.Dumb people. I talk to dumb people every day. I get so puzzled as to how they managed to make it this far in life because of how dumb they are.
3.Cold weather. It's nearly May, I want some sun.
4. School/Homework. I only have about 2 more weeks of school but I was done about 4 weeks ago. Like right now instead of blogging I should be taking a med. term. test. Who does that? Blogging is much more fun.
5. Weekdays. I would love to have a life full of weekends. Very little work, being able to stay up late and sleep in. That would be the life.
6.Bills. That's a given. I hate getting a pay check and then having to spend it all on bills. It's so discouraging to feel poor.
7.TV shows coming out only once a week. I don't enjoy the anticipation of waiting an entire week to figure out what is happening between Chuck and Blair. Just let me know all ready!
8.Working at a assisted living center where your bosses grandfather is living. Pretty sure that is going to result in some individuals loosing their jobs... Hopefully me!
9.The fact that on itunes, for one episode of TV it costs $1.99. That is so over priced it's not even funny. Then I have to buy it because the episodes on free internet TV are slow to download, blurry, and have commercials.
10. Commercials, it's not like anyone watches them. Everyone always changes the channel.

Bad Day...

So I had a bad day. Don't even want to go into really. I'll just say to top it off I had to ask a police officer to jump my car. In the pouring rain no less. Hell of a day! Glad that it's over!


Blog ya later!

MUST GO....

These are the things I have seen this week that must go!!

1. Men that think it's ok for their hair to poke out the neck of their shirt. It's disgusting, distracting, and did I mention disgusting. I don't expect you to wax your chest, hair is normal, I'd just rather not see it peeping out of your collar.
2. People that call to set an appointment, I reply well I don't have anything til tomorrow morning does 10:15 work? person on phone: well I was really wanting to get in today. (INTERNAL THOUGHTS: oh well in that case let me just cancel my life, because you really wanted to get in today.) Actual response: well I really don't have anything left today! I can see you tomorrow at 10:15. I mean seriously you obviously don't give a damn about what I want so why should I care that you really wanted to get in today? Stop being so self centered.
3. Anyone that is driving when I have anywhere to go. You either shouldn't have a license, or you need to get the heck out of my way.
4. People who think it is okay to go 10+ miles below the speed limit. You know that's just as illegal as speeding in my book.
5. Red lights! Or at least the ones that you hit that causes you to hit EVERY SINGLE RED LIGHT afterward.
6. Heavy set girls that wear clothes that are 6 sizes to small. I mean you really shouldn't be wearing a mini skirt when one of your thighs is the size of the empire state building; especially when you are swing dancing. Come on, If I wanted to see all that I would have gone to the strip club.
7. Bosses who think it's okay to show up to work 2 hours late. EVERYDAY!
8. Malls, I'd save soooo sooo much money! I could probably buy a house.
