What A Hit

I am full of broken promises and for that I severely apologize...It's just not good enough, is it? But never fear, all those few people who read our blog will possibly be delighted to hear that I am writing something about a film! Yes, it is actually happening!

So, the time was running out on my iTunes free downloads so I used my time today to watch The Whole Nine Yards :) Yay - Matthew Perry! Even better? It was basically Chandler Bing :P I've seen Perry in other films and I feel that his mannerisms and characteristics essentially are Chandler - which is great as he's my favourite 'Friend'! Not so great that an actor can fundamentally play one character (himself). And from what I've heard, he's the one stopping a Friends reunion from gracing our screens - so boo you MP! XP 

Still funny though - felt like he was the main contributor to the humour in this film, even if it was purely  reminiscent for us 'Friends' fans. 

I had a liking for the woman who played Jill (Amanda Peet) as well, straight-talking and stunning (not to mention confident, seeing as the fact there are a few topless shots) :P Not so fond on Cynthia (Natasha Henstridge) who seemed a little stuck up but as long as 'Oz' was happy, eh? 

Bit of a mixed up movie regarding characters and who was 'hitting on' who and literally hitting on (with guns) but quite an easy, relaxed film to watch. Plus, Bruce Willis is a badass.

Bringing Sexy Back ;D

A guilty feeling resides in our stomach everytime we remember about our blog. A levels suck, right? Taking over your life and what not. But just because we study 24/7 (well, Daisy anyway) doesn't mean we haven't made time to watch movies and we certainly have not given up on our blog! So, be prepared and please await a joint review on THE WOMAN IN BLACK and various other tidbits and comments on movies such as The Number 23 from Daisy hopefully over the next couple of days :D

Harry & Daisy ;D

P.S. for now we will leave with you with this...

Read All About This, Kate Winslet...Oh Wait....

Channel 4's whacking out some good'uns at the mo! The Reader was this Sunday night's extravaganzaaaaa and yes, I was once again rather excited to experience watching another must-see highly-acclaimed picture.

I was *not* disappointed. I have to say, I didn't know much about the film before other than the affair between Hanna Schmitz (Kate Winslet) and Michael Berg (David Kross) and the shock value surrounding the large age gap. I was pleasantly surprised however to find there was a lot more to the story and these characters than pure lust and hiding their affection.

For once, English being used instead of German with subtitles as me and Harry both prefer (after all if they are meant to be portrayed as German speaking German in Germany, they should be actually speaking German) doesn't take away from the film at all as it allows us to fully appreciate the acting. And it wasn't half bad :P Kate Winslet really is something!

And well done not mucking up your speech and the Golden Globes :P Apparently reading's not the only thing she needs to practice...

Bring On The HP (And I Don't Mean The Sauce!)

Like the lazy peeps we are, me and Harry ditched handing out CVs for a short notice HP marathon at our friends (OH YEAH!). Part of me has felt ol' Potter's ventures have the potential to get a tad tedious, but I just can't deny the excitement of a Harry Potter sesh, for the series is made up of such classics (or as Harry decribes them: landmark films of our generation's childhood - good enough for me). We decided the films once again don't quite reflect how amazing the books are but for them to achieve such an impossible task it'd have taken a hell of a lot of money and about 10 hours for each installment - so hats off to what they've done! Only having time for myself to watch the first, I realised that this is in fact my least favourite. As well as the cheesiness, the acting and script aren't that great (my Harry's thought's also) but granted, it is a family film and they were very young. I much prefer when they get a lot darker and there's more twists in the storyline as the plot starts to thicken and unfold. So basically I don't like Chris Columbus' interpretation and naivety of the delightful wizarding world. It's a shame I didn't get to watch more but I don't have the whole Blu-ray set for nothing ;D I thought I only really liked a few and on a good occasion but thinking about what's exactly in each one and the personality of each attracts me to ALL of them. I do believe though that the 3rd,5th and Part 2 are my faves with the first being my least favourite but I know that every single person has a completey different opinion on each. So...for pure curiosity, I'd like to know what everyone's favourite is so vote on the poll on our page and feel free to leave a comment with why that's your fave - we'd love to hear from our readers :D
