Movies I Love :

1)     Easy A
Starring: Emma Stone, Pen Badgley, Amanda Bynes, Alyson Michalka
It’s about a girl that faked losing her virginity just to help a gay classmate survive high school. Rumors started spreading fast, and soon after all geeks and weird students started paying her to “do it” with them. She accepted the offer at first because she felt pity for them, but then it just became a matter of getting noticed for once in her life around school and to get money.

It impacted me because no one really knew her and they judged and called her a “whore” without really knowing her and that’s something that happens every day in real life.


2)  Pineapple Express
Starring: Seth Rogen, James Franco, Danny McBride

This guy, Dale Denton, goes to his lazy pot dealer to buy the new rare strain called “Pineapple Express”. He then witnesses a murder by the biggest drug lord in the city and his friend which is a female cop. Dale drops his weed in front of the house. He goes to his dealer to see if the weed he bought can be traced, and it can. The bad guys are now after him and his dealer Saul Silver to kill them.

It’s amazing what drugs can do to you not only mentally but it can also mess with your safety like it did with Dale’s and Saul’s. I was also impacted with what these men did for each other, how they protected one another as if they were family. In the beginning Saul was only his dealer and Dale was only his customer. At the end they became best friends.




3)     2012
Starring: James Cusack, Thandie Newton, Chiwetel Ejiofor

Dr. Adrian Helmsley is part of a geophysical team, he finds out that the earth’s core is warming up and if they don’t do something about it now, the world will eventually come to an end. While he is struggling to warn and save the world, Jackson Curtis, an author, is trying to save his family. Earthquakes, tsunamis, all sorts of natural disaster start occurring. The earth is being destroyed little by little. Part of society was saved because the brilliant Chinese people created some kind of arks to live in.

I found this more of a horror. The movie was perfectly done. The effects seemed so real I believed everything was actually happening. It made me realize that we have to make a change and protect our environment if we want to live longer.


4)     Blue Lagoon
Starring: Brooke Shields, Christopher Atkins, Leo McKern

On their way to San Francisco two kids get stuck on an island with a new crew member of the boat, Paddy. He teaches them everything they have to know about surviving in an island. Paddy then gets drunk and drowns in the middle of the night. The children get scared and move to another island. They grow up, hormones start accelerating, and they fall in love and have a baby.

The movie is a great movie but what really impacted me was Christopher Atkins. He was such a handsome boy. He’s the reason why I watched the movie in the first place, and then I really enjoyed the movie itself.


    


5) Aquamarine
Starring: Emma Roberts, Joanna ‘JoJo’ Levesque, Sara Paxton

Two 12 year old girl best friends love going to an old beach club near their house. A huge storm passes; they go to check it out, to see if it was ok and they find a mermaid named Aquamarine on the pool. They took her home and they made her look normal. She then falls in love with the life guard. At the end she goes back to her main home, the ocean.

The movie was my favorite movie back then; I use to watch it almost every day. It did make a huge impact on me I even got blue highlights like the ones Aquamarine had.


6)     Epic Movie
Starring: Kal Penn, Jennifer Coolidge, Fred Williard

Four orphans who won tickets to go to a chocolate factory go on an “epic” adventure. They escaped to Narnia to defeat the evil white witch but they need help from a hoard of mutants from the x academy, students of witchcrafts and wizardry, funky swash-bucking pirates and mischievous beaver.

This movie is beyond the worst movie I have seen in my life. These movies like for example Meet the Spartans, Disaster Movie, Vampires Suck, Date Movie etc. are very low budget and horrible.


7)     All About Steve
Starring: Sandra Bullock, Bradley Cooper, Thomas Haden Church

Mary Horowitz, a cross word puzzler agrees to go on a blind date with a CNN camera man. She decides he the perfect guy for her. She stalks him all around the country, he absolutely hates that. Later during the movie Mary falls in a shaft that already had a little girl in it. Nobody could figure a way to rescue them but Mary being the smart woman she is, finds out a way to save herself and the girl. At the end she is still not with the guy.

I laughed a couple of times because of the things she did but there was really no point in doing this movie. It was a waste of money. What impacted me was how much of a stalker she was. I didn’t know someone would be capable of doing all of that without being  

8)     Bratz
Starring: Skyler Shaye, Janel Parrish and Logan Browning  

Four friends, all very different start hanging out with other clicks and forget about each other. They go years without talking but one day they all had detention and got reunited.  They find out that Meredith the evil popular girl is throwing a party and they are not invited. Cloe finds out her mom is the party’s caterer and that they have to work with her. During the party Meredith reveals Yasmin’s secret which is dancing and singing with a mask.

I really liked how girly it was and all the makeovers that they did. The colors were very pretty but the way they acted was not good at all. They should have picked better and more experienced actors that knew what they were doing.

  1. I like this blog.Yet it needs to be more detailed in the reviews. The movie trailers were a nice touch though. Also you should label the movies you hate as such or readers will get confused.

  9. Great way in expressing your point of view. This shows a great side of you. However I disagree, with the movie Aquamorine, maybe because it is more suitable for girls. Moreover, those are not my types of movies. Try to play with you background next because it will give an awesome touch.
