Abide the Law....

Ohhhh wow!!! Now this my friends is a movie. It had my attention the whole time! I was always wondering what was going to happen next! The only down fall was the language! Ugh one of my pet peeves is language and this for sure made you look around and check to make sure your kids wasnt there. Oh and Im not a Jamie Fox fan and hes in it, but he did ok...

Clyde Shelton (Gerald Butler) is an family man whose wife and daughter are brutally murdered during a robbery. When the killers are caught, Nick Rice (Jamie Foxx) is assigned to the case. Over his objections, Nick is forced by his boss to offer one of the suspects a light sentence in exchange for testifying against his partner.Yep you guessed it Clyde is FURIOUS! Fast forward ten years. The man who got away with murder is found dead and Clyde Shelton coolly admits his guilt. Then he issues a warning to Nick: Either fix the flawed justice system that failed his family, or key players in the trial will die.

Rating - R for strong bloody brutal violence and torture, a scene of rape and pervasive language. ** NO KIDS**

So I say........ Yay go buy it!!

Up In The Air...

Okay I'm a George Clooney fan to an extent but everytime i seen this advertise I said the same thing...."that's gonna be stupid". I'm not sure why but for some reason the appeal was not there.

Being a big movie guru I have rented out red box, I'm seriously running out of things to watch from there. I went ahead and rented it seeing as my choices were running slim, and okay get a pen ready, I was WRONG. The movie was cute. Now its not let go buy it and watch it everynight worthy but for a movie that you find yourself smiling at frequently this is for sure worth renting!

The movie is a bout a man, Ryan Bingham, a frequent flyer and corporate down sizer! Meaning he flys to you and fires you! But I must say if I had to get fired who better to do it! A very single alone man, who is relatively happy, meets the frequent flying woman of his dreams that he never really wished for. When his company becomes the one in jeopardy of shutting down, he takes a young business woman wanting to take over his position and gives her a taste of his world. If you think this is a case of single man meets single woman and lives happily ever after, well think again! Great story plot and wonderful actor!

Starring : George Clooney, Vera Farmiga, Anna Kendrick, Jason Bateman, Danny McBride

So I say.... Go rent it!

Need a Good Cry?

Wow, just finished watching A Travelers Wife. I have to admit at first I thought that it was gonna be a very silly movie, either hard to follow or unbelieveable. After reading the bad rating and stars it got, I was pretty sure I was going to be right, it seems like no one liked it. 

I guess Im just wierd because I thought it was a very good movie, and Im not so sure you need to be able to believe it to actually enjoy it. I think it beings up many topics you can discuss and many points people think about in its own way. Would it be worth knowing what was going to happen? Who you was going to marry? When you was going to die? Or would it be harder to let go? I am still undecided because it kinda showed good and bad points to both sides! Either way it gave you those moments to smile to, many moements to cry to, and an over all "I could watch this again feeling".

No matter what the critics say, no matter who dont like this movie I am pro time travel now ;)

Not so "Precious"

Its very early right now. Troy ( my patient) is still asleep. We watched a movie tonight that I didn't care for at all, Precious.It being nominated for 6 academy awards I just knew it was going to be an amazing movie, after all Avatar was wonderful and they went on about this movie to. Much to my surprise it was not anything like I expected. 
 
I started watching this expecting to see a story about an uneducated woman who goes above and beyond any and all expectations that anyone had for her. In the story you really see all her struggles and her achievements that she strives for, but the story plat was so horrid that I spent most of my time thinking about what she was going through and about how awful people are, I didn't even notice her accomplishments. 
 
The story which included incest, rape, physical and emotional abuse left my stomach so upset that I actually recommend against this movie. I will never watch this movie again, and I think it spent so much time focusing on the negative we never fully seen the positive. The only thing I will say is the actress that played the mother in the movie had to go to such a dark place to get into this actually role that I'm sure she had to go to some major therapy afterwards!
