Time to update!

I have been falling behind on all of my movies. My husband went to a Lakers game a couple weeks ago and I watched two movies that night, then I watched more the next week, and now I'm just backed up. So, it's time to update.

Bad Teacher (R)- Starring Cameron Diaz
There were some funny parts in this movie, but I didn't think it was all that great. Justin Timberlake really grossed me out as well. All she wants to do is get a boob job, then she's out of money, so she's after Timberlake because he has money, and all the while she's just being a bad teacher to get paid. She also gets what she wants in the end, which of course because it's a movie, but I wanted her to get what she deserved. Like I said, there were funny parts, but it was pretty pointless. I would not watch this movie again.

50/50 (R)- Starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt & Seth Rogan
I really like this movie. It was the right amount of funny, and there are some sad parts as well, and I just think Rogan played a great friend. I thought the psychiatrist girl (Anna Kendrick) was kind of annoying and there should have been another actress who played her part. I haven't liked any of her parts in any movies. But that's a different story. I kind of like watching movies by myself sometimes because I can feel any kind of emotion I want, so during this one, yeah I cried. And I even pressed rewind on some funny parts. Rogan was just really good. Anyway, I would watch this movie again. I even wanted to watch it again with my husband when he got home from the game.

Green Lantern (PG-13)- Starring Ryan Reynolds
This one was alright. Like I've said before, I don't really like superhero movies where there is a different world or a different planet. They had to introduce that world and the problems going on there in this movie, but for the most part, the movie was on earth, so it wasn't too bad. There wasn't anything really amazing about this movie; it was average. I didn't like the bad guys though. One of them was huge and could kill anyone by gliding over them, and the other one got super ugly so I didn't really want to look at him.

Warrior (PG-13)- Joel Edgerton & Tom Hardy
I did not want to watch this movie. My husband said he had been wanting to watch it for awhile, but I just didn't want to see another boxing movie because I thought I wouldn't be interested in it. So we went to Redbox with my husbands brother and we had five movies to choose from. We each deleted one and my brother-in-law had to choose between the last two, and I thought, oh yes he's going to pick the movie I want, but he didn't! He picked Warrior! I was so mad. Well, we came home and watched it and guess what.. I loved it, of course. My husband loves when I like movies that he picks out because I always doubt his movie choices. Anyway, it was really good. It wasn't as good as Cinderella Man, but it was pretty close. It was really sad on all parts of the family relationship because no one had talked to each other for years. It was just a dysfunctional family because of a drunk dad and a rough childhood and grudges were held. The marine brother was just so mean to everyone. Pretty sad. But a really good movie.

  1. Bad teacher - all the funny parts were in the commercials. I was really disappointed in that one. and Green lantern - that guy with the big head was SO ugly! I couldn't stand looking at him. And blake lively is crazy. Also, I'm glad you reviewed the cancer one, i really wanted to see it but i couldn't tell if it would be good or not.
