So it’s not the typical genre that I would watch at the cinema, so my expectations were somewhat low.

However, I am happy to say that this film was certainly a good laugh! I did enjoy it.

I guess it was specifically marketed at the Gen-Y population – I couldn’t see my parents enjoying it, and certainly not anybody younger than me!

It surprised me that it was the same directors as Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs – what a change in genre!! Continue reading

Little Miss Sunshine

This gallery contains 4 photos.

Okay, if you adored the humour of Juno, you will fall madly in love with this film! It was full of that dry, black humour where you don’t know if you should laugh or cry. It has that “typical family” quality where you can relate to every character because we all know somebody like them.

I mean, who doesn’t know a teenage boy who refuses to speak, a grandfather who is a heroin addict, a gay uncle who is suicidal and a father who is a failed businessman. Continue reading

And The Horse Whisperer is certainly way up there in terms of lack of soppiness, being accurate in the training and horse terms as well as having a strong sense of realism.

So it begins in the most idyllic farm blanketed in thick snow. Grace (the young Scarlett Johansson) puts her riding boots on and tip toes out of the house. She sees he friend over in the next field… Continue reading

The Hunger Games

This gallery contains 4 photos.

Imagine the over-powering control as seen in The Truman Show, the effect on the audiences’ instincts as felt in the 2010 film 127 Hours but with the overwhelming popularity of Twilight.

Wow, chills went down my spine!

Although I havn’t read the novels, I found I got totally emersed in the storyline of the first of the series about a world of twisted priorities with little respect for life, with a brewing love story beneath the conflict… Continue reading
