Julie and Julia

Julie and Julia
Directed by: Nora Ephron
Starring: Amy Adams, Meryl Streep.
My Rating: 3.5 out of 5.


Hi Web,
Whilst this film has been out for some time now, I only went and saw it yesterday because I quite honestly expected it to be a film for 60 year old women like the 'Jane Austin Book club'( is that what its called?). But it was quite enjoyable. I was quite surprised also to see that the cinema (it was a very small cinema though) was full. I was also quite shocked that it was actually quite funny and amusing. I wouldn't say it is a classic but it by no means is a flop and in some surprising way it is almost inspirational. I would strongly file it under chick flick. I give it 3.5 out of 5.

New Moon

Hi Web,

Directed by: Chris Weitz
Starring: Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Launter.
My Rating: 2 out of 5 stars.
Unlike "The Time Travellers Wife" I have read the Twilight books by Stephanie Meyer and you would have to be completely and utterly in love with the story of Edward and Bella to even find his film not cheesy. Whilst the 'Twi-Hards' are boosting its greatness, I found it extremely annoying and strange.Such as the 5 second pause that seem to happen every time Bella and Edward say something to each other. The most amusing thing about seeing this film wasn't even the movie, it was watching my male friend spend half the film with his head in his hands cringing. I would only recommend this film to the die-hard twilight fans and people who don't mind wasting there money to go watch a film were the biggest highlight is Taylor Launter shirtless.
Kirsten Stewart also stars (for lack of better word) in this film utilising her pout all through the film and I didn't find Robert Pattinsons to be that great either.

The time traveler's wife

Hi Web,
Review of: The Time Traveler's wife
Directed by: Robert Schwentke
My Rating: 1.5 out of five.


Having not read the novel that the book is based on, I am extremely confused as to what happens in the film. Sure the time traveling is easy enough to understand, yet there a multiples of him from different periods in time which makes the film very hard to follow. Yet it is a nice film if you stop trying to understand and just go with the film. Eric Bana and Rachel McAdams are both very good but unfortunately couldn't save the film.If you are a hopeless romantic you may like it but that about all I would recommend it to. I give it 1.5 of of 5.

The Box

Hi Web,

So after randomly surfing the web after days of being sick, I found an article critiquing Richard Kelly's (of 'Donnie Darko' fame)new film 'The box' as " one of the worst ever made". Maybe this is the case for some, but I personally didn't find it to be that bad. Whilst it is not action stations every minute and is by no means meant to be, it can be quite slow and boring at times. Whilst it is billed as suspense and thriller it fails a little to provide in those categorys, yet it turns out to be quite thought provoking. I very much liked the concept of the film, I think it is a clever film that has been a misunderstood by a public inundated with the straight forward mainstream films that grace our cinemas.
I think this film will mostly be enjoyed by the open-minded.
'The Box' stars Cameron Diaz, James Marsden and Frank Langella.
I found them to be all quite good though I'm still a bit unsure about Diaz's accent.

My Rating: 3/5
Staring: Cameron Diaz, James Marsden and Frank Langella.
Director: Richard Kelly
