Whatever Works

What an awesome movie!! Woody Allen never lets me down. The cast was killer and the humor spot on. Evan Rachel Wood was hysterical and played her role to a "T". Larry David's character starts getting to you a little towards the middle/end of the movie. Just as soon as it does the movie takes a turn and some well needed relief from all the pessimism saves it. The ending is great and just what I wanted to happen :-)

My Sister's Keeper

I went to see this film with my husband who has not read the book...unlike me. After reading the book the movie was a disappointment. I tried not to tell Clay any details from the book until the movie was over. Once I gave him the run down of the changes he said he preferred the book version too. Not to say the movie is not good but it's just not anywhere near as enjoyable at the book. Your heart strings get tugged something awful no matter which version you go for.
Abigail Breslin and Alec Baldwin are the only two actors that really translate their book characters. Which is a shame because the story does not come across as strong at it could have. Cameron Diaz does not at all make sense but for the movie version I guess she does okay.
Clay's one liner was "Hollywood f**ked it up again"

Away we Go

This movie was really beautiful and funny and just all the right things. The acting was spot on and with every scene a new face popped up. We kept going "hey that's so and so". We laughed a lot and some of us cried a little ;-). This movie is worth going to the art cinema to see for sure.

Food, Inc.

Just go see it...

The Proposal

Betty White is a trip and Ryan Reynolds is soo easy on the eyes that he is worth seeing the movie for if nothing else. It was your typical Sandra Bullock film but not a let down at all. I happen to love a good chick flick every now and then and this one was perfect. Oh and you can never beat a movie with Craig T. Nelson in it!!!

The Hangover

Funny...I laughed a lot...but it is nowhere near as funny as "I love you Man".

Anvil, The Story of Anvil

Anvil is a heavy metal band from Canada that was somewhat big in the 80's. The were considered the "demigods of Canadian metal". They paved the path for all the heavy metal bands we know today but somehow they were never able to make it to the big time. The movie is about their story and how they are still trying to keep the "dream" alive. Super good movie for anyone interested in music and how the industry sometimes does not always work in your favor.
