April Movie Review

Public Enemies

Who doesn't love Johnny Depp? This movie kept me interested. This gangster/bank robbing/true story was worth every penny of the rental. Johnny Depp pulled off the character and made me think at times that the cops had less morals than the "bad" guys. Watch it!

Gigantic

Being one that usually likes movies with Zooey Deschanel and John Goodman, I thought this movie would be an absolute thumbs up. Although many offbeat movies can be good this one was missing something. The tone of the film was strange and finally when answers were coming, the answers didn't make any sense. I would say that this movie isn't a thumbs up or down, it just lays there flat on the table! Parts of this movie are interesting but as a whole, it's like they forgot parts in the end.

Fear
Oh Mark Wahlberg those 1996 Jeans are very funny! Although it was cool to see a young Alyssa Milano, Reese Witherspoon and Mark Wahlberg, it also reminded me how terrible the fashion was! It made me shudder realizing, I probably dressed like that too! This movie keeps the tone of 90's twenty something thrillers. Mark Wahlberg's stalker character with his sweet voice is absolutely freaky but the cheese level from the typical bad 90's thriller acting is also incredibly obvious. I say rent it because it's an amazing reminder of why the 90's shouldn't come back into style and how all of these actors have grown into actual actors now.

Blindside

Although I hesitated to watch this movie thinking that it would be overly sappy and not hit any actual emotion, a friend came over with it so I watched it. It was shockingly well done and Sandra Bullock was well deserving of an Oscar. It was a sweet movie and sometimes sweet is good!Sandra Bullock and Tim McGraw have a great dynamic while Quinton Aaron pulls at the heart strings every other scene.
The movie demonstrates how one person can change another person's life forever. Warning: It is sweet and sappy so you have to like that to like this movie.

Cloverfield

My cousin informed me prior to watching this movie that the ending would annoy me and it did. I am giving you all the same warning, the ending may annoy you! It's a typical sci-fi'ish movie with monsters attacking New York.
Spoiler: The beginning and middle were good but why is it that so many movies leave the watcher with absolutely no knowledge of what happened to the world?
It's alright sometimes but too many of these type of movies are like this. There's also whole movie's on what happens after. Please write something different! I never really attached to any of the character's or really cared when they died or jumped so it didn't really serve it's purpose. It's fear level is sort of there and the writing is decent so it's a if you're bored, rent it.
Check out the Olivia's at Fifty three art exhibit featured artist,you may know her:)
