Movie Mania!!!

Well it has been a while since my last (and only) movie blog.
So here's the not so mega list of movies I have seen since then...

The Most Recent Of them...

ECLIPSE (the Twilight Saga)

I LOVED this movie!!!! More than the first two infact...When I saw Twilight for the first time, I hadn't read the books yet, and I hated it...I thought it was so silly how they could hate eachother then fall in love...I decided that because I clearly didn't understand the movie as much as the other "Twi-Hards" I should read the books....and OMGOSH did I fall in love!!!! I read all 4 books before New Moon (the second movie) was released. When New Moon came out, I was determined to watch it the day it was released (which just so happened to be the day of my NCEA Level 2 English Exam). I rushed through that exam to only be slightly bored and disappointed. So both movies failed to give me a good first impression...so I didn't know what to expect in Eclipse...But I was blown away!!!! It was action packed, full of creepy thrilling bits, cute, funny, sad...it was just EVERYTHING!

Movie number 2 - Shrek Forever After

This movie was actually pretty good for a kids movie...and also considering it is the 4th sequal!!! The 1st Shrek was good, the second was "meh" and the third...thumbs down. But this was farely good....oh and I forgot to mention...it was in 3D so that added to the excitement.

Next....The Prince Of Persia

Ben and I went and saw this together, and he went in with a fair idea of what was going to happen in the movie due to the fact that it is a video game of some sort (I did not know this!). I went in thinking that since it was made by the same people who made 'Pirates of the carribean' ; it would be a good movie.

I thought this movie was good...but not good enough to see twice. It had its moments...but it didn't really tickle my fancy...Oh well.

Last but not least... The Blind Side

Ok, confession... I didn't go to the movie's to watch this...I went to Stacey's (Ben's older sister) to see it with Ben, her and her flatmate Tereinamu. This movie is a definite tear-jerker. It was so sad and is based on a true story. It's not like all those other movies out there about American Footy...It has so much more heart involved in it. And Sandra Bullock did a great job playing the main role in this movie...As for the BIG guy...You just wanna hug him and never let go!!!!
