When a criminal mastermind uses a trio of orphan girls as pawns for a grand scheme, he finds himself profoundly changed by the growing love between them. 

IT’S SO FLUFFY, I’M GONNA DIE! IT’S SO FLUFFY!!!

Who can ever forget that hilarious and uberly cute unicorn scene? This is what I love about Pixar. They make you cry then laugh then cry again (the cycle goes on and on)and in the end you just don’t know what to feel but you go out of the movie theater feeling like a kid again with a big smile on your face. 

The voices are star- studded. From Steve Carell to Miranda Cosgrove, it actually feels weird hearing their familiar voices but in a different body. AGNES! Where do I begin? SHE IS JUST A.D.O.R.A.B.L.E.  I want my own Agnes! To tell you the truth, I barely even noticed the two other kids because Agnes just stole the scenes every time she’s in it.

THE MINIONS! They are just as cute and funny as Agnes! I love that they had their own language. That makes them more funny.

Gru has the face of an ultimate villain. Vector well… he is your typical smart ass nerd that you just wanna punch every time even if he is just sitting on the sofa eating his favorite cookies.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS MOVIE! I am pretty sure that children and parents will equally love it.

A drama centered on a rebellious girl who is sent to a Southern beach town for the summer to stay with her father. Through their mutual love of music, the estranged duo learn to reconnect.

I am not a fan of Nicolas Sparks (but I adored The Notebook) so I really had no expectations when I watched this movie. I have to say, Miley Cyrus can really act. She far from Julia Roberts obviously but I think she deserves what people call her: “The next Julia Roberts”

The story is a bit predictable when the main reason she was shipped off to her father for the summer is revealed. The story about her family and her relationship with her father balanced out her sizzling hot (LITERALLY) romance with on and off screen boyfriend Liam Hemsworth. The boy who played Miley’s brother is amazing. Every time he cried, I felt my heart break. And yes, I did cry.

I love summer and beaches and beach houses and summer flings. All of these are in the movie. A typical chick flick but with a big heart.

In a world where technology exists to enter the human mind through dream invasion, a highly skilled thief is given a final chance at redemption which involves executing his toughest job till date, Inception.

This movie has taken the world by storm. No one expected it to be this big. I am sure that everyone who had the chance to watch it while it’s still on the cinemas were caught off-guard after. 

I consider myself lucky that I have been able to watch this one of a kind, amazing, mind-blowing *insert more adjectives here* masterpiece. It has been a while since I last watched a movie that literally made me think. It is one off those movies where you hold your pee until the credits roll. IT WAS THAT GOOD. Good is even an understatement. It made my mind hurt, yes. But watching it is like an orgasm for the mind.

EVERYTHING WAS JUST SO GOOD. The fight scenes (OMG, THE FIGHT SCENE OF JOSEPH GORDON- LEVITT<3 ), the star-studded cast, the amazing effects. I can call it “The Perfect Movie”.

No spoilers here. I am sure that a lot of people haven’t watched this film. If you are one of those, you must, I repeat, YOU MUST WATCH IT. Torrent it, wait for the DVD, whatever, just watch it.

The film, written by IFTA-nominated screenwriter Daragh Carville (Middletown), follows the story of two best friends who are looking forward to a summer of fun when a troubled beauty makes them dangerously compete for her affections.

BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE, NO SPOILERS HERE. :)

I will be a little biased because anything Rupert Grint an instant watch. I think Rupert Grint being in a very different role apart from his famous Harry Potter character gave Cherrybomb its much deserved fame. This film that premiered at the 2009 Berlin Film Festival was unable to find a distributor at first. But thanks to the million fans of Rupert who helped to secure a deal, it was released in the UK this year and is awaiting release in the US.

First, it is again a breath of fresh air seeing Rupert in a completely opposite role from what is known for. Malachy (Rupert Grint) is an over-achiever while his best friend Luke (Robert Sheehan) is a druggie with no future. Robert Sheehan reminds me so much of Adam Lamberg! The curly hair and his eyes! It’s almost like they are twins! Michelle (Kimberly Nixon) who is the love interest of both Malachy and Luke is not your typical skinny, uberly hot feamle lead but she did well and she fits her part.

THE CINEMATOGRAPHY IS AMAZING. The location and the props too! The story is predictable and yet not so predictable (you’ll get what I mean when you watch it). The strong accent will is hard to understand in the start (especially Luke!) but you’ll get used to it while the movie progresses.

Rupert Grint is extra hot in the movie. EXTRA HOT. I kept dying inside while he’s on the screen. 

Watch it! I gave a list of torrent links here if you are interested in downloading it!

As a string of mysterious killings grips Seattle, Bella, whose high school graduation is fast approaching, is forced to choose between her love for vampire Edward and her friendship with werewolf Jacob.

I HONESTLY LOVED IT. It is million times better than the first two films. It’s good that they included humor in the film too! The fight scenes were also better than the last two movies. I liked the book and this movie didn’t disappoint to capture the essence of the book.

Carlisle’s (Peter Facinelli) sudden British accent disturbed me a little. When did he develop that accent? It wasn’t there in the first two films. Jasper (Jackson Ratbone) was hotter than ever. Bella (Kristen Stewart) got prettier although Bella is at her stupidest on Eclipse (Edward over Jacob? He is not even alive. And attempting to have sex with a vampire, that is just crazy and disturbing). Riley (Xavier Samuel) is so hoooooooooooooooooot. And oh, I miss Rachelle Lefevre playing Victoria but Bryce Dallas Howard did good.

The Saga fans will surely love it and the haters will continue hating it. I am neither of the two but I enjoyed it.

AND OH, I AM NOW ON TEAM JACOB. Face it, I’m hotter than you. 

 


The toys are mistakenly delivered to a day-care center instead of the attic right before Andy leaves for college, and it&#8217;s up to Woody to convince the other toys that they weren&#8217;t abandoned and to return home. 
Toy Story happened in 1995. Toy Story 2, 1999. Pixar finally came up with the third installment 11 years after. The long wait meant that the kids who were there when Toy Story 1 and 2 happened are no longer kids when 3 was released. It feels good that even though technically, Toy Story 3 is a movie for the kids, it catered mostsly those then kids during the 90&#8217;s. 
Toy Story 3 made me feel that separation from the young me and accepting the fact that I am no longer a kid. That when we were young, toys solved all our problems but now, we have to deal with a lot of stuff like college and real life. We all see ourselves in Andy&#8217;s character. That is the reason why almost all the 90&#8217;s babies who watched this film were more affected than those who were not there when the first two were released.
I don&#8217;t know about you but that one of 103 minutes of my life. Even for just 103 minutes, I felt like that kid again who was in the movie house 15 years ago.
PS. You may have heard of it but here are the Toy Story 3 Easter Eggs. Enjoy and be mind blown.

The inhabitants of a small Iowa town suddenly plagued by insanity and then death after a mysterious toxin contaminates their water supply.
Nothing new here. The story starts when a mysterious virus starts to spread in a small town affecting its people. The starts to act weird and later on transforms into zombies/undead. The lead characters though amazingly have not contracted the virus. Now, they are on the verge of escaping town and their people alive. In the end, they discover that the virus is none other than created by the government. Watching this will only remind you of 28 Days Later and Dawn of The Dead.

Three teenagers are confined to an isolated country estate that could very well be on another planet. The trio spend their days listening to endless homemade tapes that teach them a whole new vocabulary. Any word that comes from beyond their family abode is instantly assigned a new meaning. This film premiered at the 2009 Cannes Film Festival, where it won the Prix Un Certain Regard.
I can&#8217;t really give a &#8220;proper&#8221; review or description for this movie but this review by twitchfilm.net has all the information you want to know about the film. Very interesting film.

While his trailer trash parents teeter on the edge of divorce, Nick Twisp sets his sights on dream girl Sheeni Saunders, hoping that she&#8217;ll be the one to take away his virginity. 
It&#8217;s not surprising to see Michael Cera in the role of Nick. Lonely virgin boy who loves a girl he cannot have and in the end haves sex with her and they live happily ever after. Youth in Revolt&#8217;s story is also like that but a little different. For starters, the hot girl but there are a lot of things that are stopping them from being together. This is where the title: Youth in Revolt comes in.
I actually love the story. Even if it&#8217;s a bit predictable, twists like the invention of Francois entertained me. Plus, no one can say no to Michael Cera.

Based on Nick Hornby’s best-selling novel, About A Boy is the story of a cynical, immature young man named Will who is taught how to act like a grown-up by a little boy.

I decided to finish the book first before watching its movie adaptation. I have to say that the book is definitely better than the movie but I can’t help but fall in love with this movie.

Hugh Grant + Nicolas Hoult! These two are too adorable for words. It’s just like how I imagines Will and Marcus! Although the story is a bit different from the book  (No Kurt Cobain drama and Ellie and Marcus’ relationship is missing:( ), I love how it still had that “kick” that made people laugh and cry like the book. 

It’s always nice to watch a movie based on a book. It makes the characters more alive and there. I know you know what I mean.
