The Proposal
by JaniceI love chick flicks because they never fail to move me and I always know what to expect because of their flagrant predictability and tendency for possessing happy endings. With The Proposal I was once again not the least deceived.
First, and most importantly, Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds have terrific chemistry and such intense magnetism that it drew me into the film even more. Storyline is quite ordinary and bland, yet it being sprinkled with a series of successful jokes do render it a fairly agreeable summer film.
If you're looking for a fun, feel-good, and romantic little film, go out and see this. Laughs guaranteed.If you're looking for a fun, feel-good, and romantic little film, go out and see this. Laughs guaranteed.

Land of the Lost
by JaniceAbsolutely inane and horrible storyline.
I am so disappointed that I don't think it deserves more than a phrase.HORRIBLE.
See this only if you really do enjoy Will Ferrel's performances... and even then!
I vouch that Year One will be 100x better.posted 27 days ago -
I recommend you see...Pfff..... TOTAL deception (not that I had grand expectations)
Such a deception, in fact, that I don't even feel on expounding. This film drained me. Too many explosions and a huuuge lack of "connection" with the characters.

My Life Without Me
by JaniceAbsolutely amazing, one of the most humane films I have seen in a long while!
Sarah Polley is breath-taking and gives the peformance of a lifetime in this beautiful, beautiful, beautiful film that makes one reflect and ponder upon the meaning of life - and of one's own life as a consequence.
Also, I think it has one of the best opening scenes I have ever seen. Terribly nostalgic and poetic. Will not please everyone but WoW. Took my breath away.
Instant classic.BREATH-TAKING.
Among the most humane films I have ever seen.
Makes one reflect upon our lives and how we are living them - sounds cliché I know, but what isn't right?
GIVE. THIS. ONE. A. TRY.

Real Women Have Curves
by JaniceCute and inspiring.
I can see why America Ferrera was singled out after playing Ana in this film, a character that manages to touch its audience in every possible way. America delivers a fine performance alongside Lupe Ontiveros, Ana's invading mother. I must point out that both share an amaaazing amount of chemistry which makes the film even more believable.
Worth many viewings.Hey, you should really see this!

2:37
by JaniceBrilliant take on the hellish dramas of high school students. Acting is virtually flawless, my favorite performance being delivered by Teresa Palmer, who plays Melody.
My only major criticism is that the plot is overly ambitious for its restricted 1h30min timeframe. The lives of each of these six individuals are so intricate that I would have made a separate film for each of them. It's a shame that there is no closure to their problems once the film ends, but are rather overshadowed by yet another drama.
Still highly recommended, though, for its unique style. Just don't watch it when you're feeling down; it's a truly depressing film.Check this out if you're really into dramas.
I found it quite depressing, I won't hide that from you, but if you're interested I strongly urge you to see this.

Angels & Demons
by JaniceHaven't read the novel so I couldn't possibly compare this adaptation to its manuscript counterpart.
I did, however, enjoy it much much more than The Da Vinci Code, yet it really doesn't live up to the exaggerated publicity we have seen countless times prior to the release of this film.
The premise is rather simplistic and the suspense was rather lacking. Twist at the end was so predictable that I believe they were better off announcing it at the beginning of the film. Also, the "bad guy's" character (to use common vernacular) really wasn't developed enough and it seems we completely lost him after a while.
Despite this, I found the actors delivered decent performances. It was the setting and the atmosphere of the whole film that made the cut for me. Also the fact that it mirrored conspiracies and controversies surrounding the Catholic Church - not that I am for or against them. The latter does seem to get to me naturally.
Anyhow, if you don't like the genre, you should best stay away and rent it instead. Otherwise, I encourage you to go out and see it. It's short and sweet... and entertaining.
p.s. I am torn between a 3-star rating and a 3.5-star rating. So I put 3.5, just in case :)See this if you have time on your hands and are a fan of the genre (I stress the latter part).
I still do think that so far, Star Trek remains the best summer flick.
But I bet Terminator Salvation will steal the throne next week...posted 49 days ago -

Star Trek
by JaniceBRILLIANT take on Star Trek. Great cast (I originally thought Chris Pine would destroy the franchise), my favorite being Zachary Quinto (Spock). However, I must say Simon Pegg and Anton Yelchin were a great addition to the cast.
Filled with action & drama; the best summer flick as of now. Seriously.Worth every single penny... and beyond.
