Leap Year (2010)
Sweet Movie :)
I liked this movie quite a bit. I didn't have plans to see it, but my friends and I decided to spur of the moment. I really like Amy Adams, and I hadn't heard of Matthew Goode before, but this movie really made me want to check out his other work. The storyline was really good - better than the previews made it look! The relationship between Anna and Declan was so sweet, and it progressed well. It was actually developed! There were definitely funny moments and characters, but there was a fair bit of romance that wasn't overdone, as well. I of course wouldn't say that this was the best movie ever or even the best movie I've ever seen, but it was done well, it was funny, and it's definitely made it onto my favorites list. I can't wait to buy it once it's out on DVD! :) I definitely recommend this movie, especially if you're a fan of romantic comedies... or even if you're not!
Twilight (2008)
I liked it. - Minor spoilers
I'm a huge book-to-movie skeptic. I always expect them to be awful. But I saw Twilight and it followed the story fairly well - there were a few different things, of course, but it wasn't enough to make me think, "No, it didn't go like that!" The characters were good, and the actors portraying them did a good job for the most part. There were, of course, down points (Kristen Stewart's sputtering in the hospital bed and in the hallway), but overall I think that the movie followed the book well and delivered a beautiful love story. Some parts were a bit silly ("Hold on tight, spider monkey!"), but it appeals to the masses of 14-year-old girls who all went to see Robert Pattinson as Edward :) and I must say, he IS gorgeous!
Wizards of Waverly Place (2007)
Good show
Before I start, I just have to say that I am not a big fan of the Disney Channel. I don't watch it for the most part. However, I was channel surfing one day and stumbled on this show. I thought, "Well, I've never seen this before. Maybe it won't be as bad as some of the other stuff on here." I have to say that I was right! This show is appealing for the "tweenage" population but also for people in other age groups (myself included). "Wizards" is also pretty funny (albeit some of the humor is a bit cheesy, I have to admit that it still gets a chuckle out of me!). Selena Gomez is definitely another rising star. I had never even heard of her before this show, but now I count myself as one of her fans. Jake T. Austin is simply adorable, and David Henrie is pretty cute ;) I think that viewers of most ages will probably enjoy this show (if they can stand some overplayed gags and corny jokes). Personally, I think it's a lot better than anything else they show on that channel, so if you're like myself and think that everything on Disney Channel is stupid and little-kiddish, I recommend that you check this show out - maybe it will change your opinion. It did mine!
