movie reviews...

You are probably sick of hearing so many posts about the movies I am watching so I thought I would make it easier on everyone. At the bottom of this blog I have removed the photos and replaced them with a movie review. I will be able to share with you what I am currently watching or just watched. Should you watch The Way We Were? Maybe you should read the review!!!

ENJOY...


The Way We Were (1973) **** Barbra Streisand + Robert Redford. A wonderful love story about complete opposites trying to make their lives work together. I watched this because I love Sex and the City and Carrie compares her relationship with Big to Katie and Hubble's relationship. I guess the curly haired girl with the open mind and mouth never really win (well, until Sex and the City: The Movie!)

Lifeboat (1944) ***1/2 A German Sub torpedoes an American ship. There are just a few survivors. The spend the next few days deciding how to survive. Much drama ensues. Typical Hitchcock. Very good.

Private Benjamin (1980) ** Goldie Hawn. Judy is rich girl whose husband dies on their wedding night. She is sick of living how her family wants her to live and thinks the army sounds glamourous. Boy is she wrong. This is a very 80's movie, but I wasn't that impressed with the entire movie. Maybe Judy Benjamin needs a hobby she actually likes.

Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? (1966) *** Elizabeth Taylor + Richard Burton. A husband and wife basically fighting for the whole movie and seeing which can hurt the other more. The performances are fantastic, sadistic, and entirely entertaining.

The Ugly Truth (2009) ** Katherine Heigl + Gerard Butler. I am not a total movie snob. I do like the occasional chick-flick over the top 100 winners. But this one... not so much. Wow. Predictable. I won't even bother with the synopsis. It was fun, just not something I would even suggest to a girlfriend.

The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999) (currently watching)



(Star ratings are out of five)



So keep up with my movies down below. Just keep scrolling...
