August Rush (2007,  PG)
August Rush 5.0 Stars
amazing...everything! i (having seen so many movies) am usualy not throown into a movie to the point that i want to yell at the TV but when he p,layed the song w his dad i was so sweet...the sound track must be amazing as well!
wizard seemd like the perfect person...but his anger seems to get the best of him, and he really has the wrong intentions...the comercial is misleading about that. i also thought the way each :thing" had music, the way he saw almost what was put there for every one to hear but we are all to busy w our lives to pay attention. But what i think i loved the most was the way the peoples stories wound together and in the end at the park...and...oh my god it was just sooo good!!!!

amazing! i absolutely loved it. i think it may very well b my new favorite movie. a lot of people said how they could not see rubert grint outside of being ron weasly, and i didnt think that at all, i think ben is a different character, and i completely believe it. julie walters playing Evie was also incredibly. Evie is a very fun chacater to watch on screen. i have been waiting to c this movie since i saw it on a movie rental shelf, but my mom wouldnt let me c it, so i went to the movie store by myself today and payed to rent it with out them and just locked myslef in my room w a portable DVD player. and i am SO glade i did! its an amazing movie, and i highly recommend it to EVERYONE!

BEFORE I SAW IT:
I WAS IN DC WHEN THEY WERE FILMING THIS!!!! I SAW NICHOLAS CAGE!!!!! and if im lucky...my class and i could be in a scene in front of the white house! : )

but taffygirl did not c Nicholas!!! everyone thought i was CRAZY!!!! but i have a blurry picture of his head to prove that im NOT!!!! (its blurry cause we were walking away from him :*( so sad!)


and it comes out DECEMBER 21 not November...cause im an idiot who cant read a stupid month written in plain site on the Internet and wrote November on the quiz that i made and was so kindly corrected by a guy in my class...terribly sorry about that : )



GOING TO C IT ON FRIDAY THE 21 AT 6:45!!!!! I WILL OFFICALY REVIEW IT THEN...AND GIVE MY OPPINION (LIKE I DONT ALREADY HAVE ENOUGH OF THAT :) IM SO EXCITED!!!


AFTER I SAW IT:
this is an AMAZING movie! there were some parts...when it was like...eh! thats from the first movie! u cant do that! but over all the best movie i have seen all year (and i am a MAJOR harry potterhead and pirates of the caribbean person) i would HIGHLY recommend it to anyone...EVERYONE! i loved it...i might go again soon...tomorrow maybe??? yeah...that sounds good! :)

and may i just say...for those of u who care...there was a part...that may have involved me in the background...but i have to watch it again to confirm it! :)

i am not! :( *tear* so sad...depressing even! :(

but i have just bought the script (signed by the actors) and i fully intend to have this moive memorized by the time it comes out on DVD! :)

The Wizard of Oz 5.0 Stars
how can u not love it? i have been in this play aboiut 4 times now....i just rewatched it, and its so funny the effects r so bad, like u can c the string in "if i were a king" so, the one thats making the lions tale move lol...and the backgrounds r very obviously not real! but it is one of my favorite movies of all time, and let me just clear this up for anyone who hasnt heard the truth yet, their is not a munchkin/tinman/director hanging himself in the back of a set...its a bird!
my fave little thing though...i love the jitterbug somg, and the sign in the ahunter forest is spelled wrong...(or so i hear...i always forget to look! :)
if u have not cn this movie...or u didnt want to watch it cause the first part is in black and white (or really brown and dark brown) go and watch it...its a great story, great actors, all that great stuff, so yeah!: )

Secret Window (2004,  PG-13)
Secret Window 5.0 Stars
AMAZING! it was so good. the story drew u away rom what was really happening, and then when it came back, u didnt c it coming. I thought it was weird when the guy started turning up everywhere, bt the endding explains everything, and how he starts talking to himself. But i have to say, most movies that end the way this one does are not very good, but this pulled it off great. U didnt doubt for a min, what u saw, until u found out what really happend.

War of the Worlds (2005,  PG-13)
War of the Worlds 5.0 Stars
AMAZING! i am not a tom cruise fan at all, and it was on tv and it was that or high school musical (:P) and so i watched it, it is amazing!
i didnt see the begining, but i saw from when the thing just starts to rip through the ground...and the cars start stopping.
it didnt seem like a "horror" movie at all, u cant help but get caught up in everything, feel like ur there, part of this family running from monsters that are killing them and everyone they knew. dakota fanning was so great, though her character complains a lot. and the sreaming does become a bit supperfulus...but it really is a great movie and (if u care about this stuff) it has some really great camera shots too, when they are held up in that guys basement, and the monster comes down and looks for humans, and they r just missing him, and going behind all the different walls is really great, and the trick w the mirror and the shoe, me beigging a person who prides her self on not letting movies trick me, was imperssed by the way they pulled the mirror out and put the shoe there to trick it when she moved her foot...the only thing i dont get is WHY. why did the monster things wait that long to kill everyone? why did the need to JUST drink the blood, why dont they just eat the whole body?

and to anyone who said the endding sucked...watch "the birds" (another one of my favorite movies) now THAT is a strange endding. but i think that this movie fits in with a more NOW version of the birds, it had the same "why r they doing this, and why now" feeling to it....

An Inconvenient Truth (2006,  PG)
An Inconvenient Truth 5.0 Stars
I can honestly say, i am not a huge documentary person, some people can sit through anything and b compleatly interested, i get bored with things like this normally...NORMALLY...i loved this, it has a great message about world conservation, and even if ur one of those "the world is NOT dieing you fools!" u should go see it, it may very well change your mind. Al Gore has managed to catch my, a 14 year old high school freshmans, attention, then he must b doing something right. we watched it in school last year, for for arbor day i think, and the whole school watched it, 6th, 7th, and 8th grades, and i know that people got stuff out of it. and again, if u are one of the deniers, it will still teach you ways to live normally, but treating our environment w respect.

my goodness..what can i say? this was the perfect role for johnny depp. he is so unimaginably strange in this movie...he barely even looks liek himself. i had seen parts of it befor...but now that i have seen t all the way through i cant even begine to explain the sheer genius of this movie. the perfect little suberb and then theis castle looming over it...and the endding is great...its on of those movies that u shoudl watch it...if not only because the endding is on of the best ever. : )

Benny & Joon 5.0 Stars
i loved it so much. johnny depp is amazing in it...its a realy quirky movie. it has this great feel about it that a lot of movies dont have, liek when u r watching it it has the feel tht u just want to keep watching it...

the story is great, and u can thelp but fall in loive with the characters. one strange thing for me that i think i liked was there really wasnt an anit-hero..no one reall had it out for anyone else...they each did what they felt was best for joon...though benny had his jerk moments like at the hospital calling sam a moron...

i also thougth the choise of actors was amazing...i could only imagine that working w johnny depp it is quite hard to hold ur own...show ur weirdness, but they all build off each other so well u cant help but wish that u could walk up and start a conversation w sam...

The Dark Knight 5.0 Stars
The most amazing movie this summer.
Nothing else can possibly describe Heaths AMAZING performance as the joker. Not only did he show a strange maniacal but he showed something that couldn?t help but make you laugh. Comedy in an action movie is not only hard to get but hard to get when u have lost one of the leading men. Christen bale also gave an amazing performance as ?the batman? not many times do you see a hero on the point of giving up and revive himself only to become hunted by the police. One can only hope that the next batman movie will be somewhere near as good as the first two are. If Heath Ledger doesn?t get at least nominated for this movie?I will be incredibly disappointed.
