Don't Cry Over Jennifer Connelly: Selfish Bitch

REQUIEM FOR A DREAM! WHY HAVE I ONLY JUST SEEN THIS FILM!!??

This film = (insane s*** + drugs + immense editing/directing) x Jared Motherf...Leto

So why did I have to wait for the school film club to bring it to me? I should have been running to it just to stroke Jared's eye on the cover...(have an obsession as you can tell...well, he is a God amongst men!) BONUS: He was called Harry (I can dream...JK) Took me by surprise when he opened his mouth though - was not expected that accent...but I found it quite endearing after a while (does he have any flaws?) And how cute was he playing around with his gf: Jennifer Connelly

But enough about Him for now. This film is up there not just for good actors but my God, the editing: split screens and montages galore. Not sure if the drugs bit got overused at one point but as it was consistent it was one of the fundamental elements that make the film so unique and ground-breaking.

And while we're on groundbreaking: the soundtrack *UGH - screams uncontrollably* Yeah, it's repeated sometimes and you think whoah deja vu but you've got to have a theme, right? Theme's are the best! And this theme is heavenly! Adds so much more tension and emotion to the scenes - I almost cried at the aftermath...

Some people shouldn't cry *coughJaredcough* - please you're a beautiful man, just don't lower yourself to cry over that selfish girlfriend of yours who you treat like a crackwhore princess and she just cares when she's gonna next get to fix herself up. But don't worry about your poor, cold, injured boyfriend who's just as much a junkie as you are a shllllllaaaaaaaag (fair does, you needed the money though)...

As I need to watch this film, AGAIN! SOON! MUCH LOVE FOR DIS MOVIE AND SOUNDTRACK - GO WATCH IT NOW!

I Am So Easily Amused

Arthur Christmas - sounds particular appropriate for today. I have fancied watching this movie for a while as it seemed like some good ol' British humour and I was not disappointed in the blunt sarcasm from Gran-Santa (defo my fave).

Not knowing much about the film before, I was intrigued as I wasn't really looking for a proper moral-filled kids movie. But the humor and technology-influenced culture brings that rewatchable factor for every year.

I did however find myself laughing at...everything,unlike most people but I still heard a fair few laughs and I'm sure people of the same nature as me will love it at any age. I'm pretty sure I heard Harry laugh at some point :P Look out for stuff in the background as this can also cause a giggle :P

RECOMMEND RECOMMEND RECOMMEND (for anytime in the year except it's not acceptable in my opinion to watch Xmas films throughout the year so save it for everyday in December)

On another note, I'm catching up watching stuff on my Sky+ box and decided to watch Knowing. Nicholas Cage! I've always wanted to watch this film as it seemed really intriguing on a trailer I always see on a DVD I have (pretty sure it's Twilight, don't murder me). Nicholas Cage! I wasn't disappointed by the thrill factor and the intrigue but the ending seemed a tad silly. Should have kept a bit of mystery and ambiguity in my opinion. But I loved the links throughout the film and for once the the mother and daughter looked alike. Did I mention Nicholas Cage is in it? That man's voice is awesome :D He's a hero in this - his best character of course :P Nicholas Cage!

I love the concept and the effects but i think the endings a tad stupid, but give it a chance and you may like all of it....but you're safer turning it off 30 mins before the end :P
