Final Destination

Final Destination (2009) you suck! Most people have seen the older movies (what aren't there like 7?) about flight 180, and the roller coaster, and so on and so forth. Well those movies were stupid too, I will agree. However, once you see this movie you will think that those movies were amazing compared to it. Bobby Campo, Haley Webb, Shantel VanSanten, Nick Zano, what were you thinking?
Nick O'Bannon (Bobby Campo), Lori Milligan (Shantel VanSanten), Hunt Wynorski (Nick Zano), and Janet Cunningham (Haley Webb) are all at a racecar track and watching the race obviously. Well Nick has this premonition of a huge crash that will happen. Of course he freaks out and they all leave blah blah blah. I bet you can guess what happend. That's right the crash happens. Now all of you who have seen the older movies know how this goes, they beat death's list. So they all end up dying in a certain order. Well same here. Not only are the deaths completely unrealistic, but also he sees the visions and they are random objects. Yeah just random objects that KILL people. Sounds so cool I know! Hah! I will end this on a good note however. We all remember Nick Zano right? He played Vince on What I Like About You! And I will say he is as cute as ever :)

Titanic

Yes, my heart will go on! This movie was AMAZING, and more!!! It's easy to say that I cried through the whole thing. My friends and I watched it the other day. We joked about how since we've seen it more than 100 times that we wouldn't cry. And guess what? At the end, all of us were bawling. Not only was the cast amazing (Leonardo Dicaprio, Kate Winslet, Kathy Bates, Billy Zane, Gloria Stuart, etc.) but the story was both sad and beautiful. James Cameron I owe a huge round of aplause, because this movie was worth every second you wrote.
It's about a man Jack Dawson (Leonardo Dicaprio) who wins a ticket to the "Unsinkable Ship" during a poker game. He boards it with his friend and sees a woman. As he is reading he sees her about to jump. This woman of course is Rose Bukater (Kate Winslet). He talks about how if she jumps he jumps. Well, what can you expect, they fall in love. As the ship goes down you see their true passion of love. And at the end.... well I won't say much more. But just a heads up if you're planning on seeing this bring a box of tissues because everyone cries in this movie.
I would give this movie 10 out of 5 stars. And I recommend to everyone who wants to watch a good movie.

Revolutionary Road

So I just got done watching Revolutionary Road. You would think that with such a great cast that this movie would beat the heck out of all other movies, well not really. It starts with Frank Wheeler (Leonardo Dicaprio) and April Wheeler (Kate Winslet). They seem like the perfect couple according to their friends Helen (Kathy Bates) and John Givings (Michael Shannon). It's safe to say that once you start watching you want to see more. And how couldn't you with the darling Leonardo and Kate Winslet who both starred in Titanic. Kathy Bates (who also starred in Titanic) however, did make a superb role in this film. As you start going through the movie you realize that this couple isn't what they seem. They fight alot, cheat on eachother, and let's face it never talk to eachother. They seem like total strangers.
As I kept watching it I just had to see how much time I had left. The movie was good I will admit that, but it was to frustrating to completely want to watch over. I will say that I kept watching it because....Mr. Dicaprio is shirtless in one of the scenes ;)! All in all it was an okay film. I would rate it maybe 2 stars tops.

Movie Reviews

Okay so I haven't written in a while! That's why I've decided to change this blog up a bit! By doing movie reviews. Yes, it sounds dorky, but I don't care. THis is my blog and I will do what I want with it. Also I've seen tons of movies, so this will work out just fine!
