Let me start off by saying, Shannyn Sossamon is beautiful! Gawd damn she’s hot! I got this movie because i was kind depressed and thinking about killing myself. (not really) but i was kinda depressed. I picked it up cause there were some good reviews on the DVD jacket. And obviously, i’m a fan of Miss Sossamon.

The movie is really good. It’s very creative and i recommend it. It’s a modern take on “defending your life.” It’s a cooler version of that afterlife movie. If this movie was just a black comedy, i don’t think i would like it very much. But, wristcutters is a love story. It’s about falling in love and losing love.

The cast is brilliant. Everyone acts their part and acting it A class. The directer does a great job setting up the scene and letting the story move forward.

Thumbs up!

If you loved “before sunrise & before sunset” you’re probably going to link this dialogue rich movie. 2 days in Paris was a surprising film written and directed by julie delpy. I didn’t realize how talented she was. The script is amazing. I love dialogue rich movies. Of course, the dialogue has to be real and engaging. I rented this movie without any expectations. I just felt like watching a relationship flick or chick flick. But this movie is much more then a chick flick. It’s a smart film about relationships.

Most films follow a basic formula. This movie is structurally sound, but it’s quite original. I could totally relate to the stupid arguments that these two characters were having. The insecurities and self doubt of every day relationships is represented well in this movie. I was in a few inter racial/ inter language relationships. I understand how conversations can lost in translation. I know how it feels to be in the outgroup when meeting friends or family.

Thumbs up!

Why did i get married is the first drama film written and directed by Tyler Perry. Let me start off this post with a question. Why did i watch this movie? I guess because i recently got married and i thought i’d give this “black” movie a chance. To be honest, i’m not a fan of Tyler Perry. I don’t understand why his movies make so much money. I guess white people love watching black men in drag.

I actually like relationship movies. I even like “black” movies. I enjoyed “boys in the hood” “the wood” and “the best man.” I even liked “for love and basketball” and “brown sugar.” But this movies was bad. I blame the writing and i blame the directing. Most of all, i blame the bad acting. The only actor i enjoyed in this movie was the guy who was in “cool running.”

The movie is overacted by it’s “icon” star, janet jackson. None of the chracters are likeable and i didn’t care any of them. The movie is corny. If they changed the script and changed up the actors, it might not be that bad. I don’t think Tyler Perry should act anymore. Unless he dresses in drag for the white fans, he really has no business acting.

Four married couples meet once a year to talk about relationships. Janet’s character is a writer and she wrote an award winning book based on the relationship of her friends. This movie is like a bad episode of Oprah. No, it’s a bad episode of Dr. Phil.

They should rename this movie to “why would you want to watch this movie?” Thumbs down, way down!

What a god awful movie this was. I just finished watching this sorry excuse for a movie. I can’t believe so many actors wanted to be in this movie. Granted, non of them are A listers, but still. I’m thinking Forrest Whittaker took this role before he won his Oscar. This movie was hideous. The story didn’t flow and i was left watching 10 mins of the movie over and over again. I wasn’t even curious about who the shooter was. What was the point of this flick? Save the president? Honestly, i wouldn’t mind if the president got shot. It’s not like back in the day of JFK. I don’t think the country would mourn that much if Bush got shot.

Not worth watching. Thumbs down! Way Down!

This Showtime Original TV series is pretty amazing. I rented the first season of The Tudors because i got interested in Henry the 8th. My interest sparked because i saw “The other Boyln girl.” I couldn’t resiste Natalie Portman and Scarlet Johansson. Anyway, on the bonus disk of “the Tudors” there was the first episode of Californication starring David Ducovny. I thought the writing was solid and the actors amazing. I like the daughter in the movie. She’s not annoying like most child actors. His wife and his wife’s boyfriend’s daughter are hot.

If you like witty dialogue and good acting, you should check this series out. Watch it on showtime or rent the whole first season on dvd.
