Fast Five

One of my guilty pleasures is the Fast and Furious series! They are so exciting and so much fun to watch. I was so excited to find out that there was going to be a fifth one! So of course, as soon as I could, I hit the movie theater to watch it!

The movie starts with where the last one ended. Dom, Vin Diesel's character, was in the prison bus en route to prison. Brian, Paul Walker, and Mia, Jordana Brewster, are driving around the bus. They then cause a car accident with the bus and break Dom out. They then go on the run and meet up in Rio where a "job" goes wrong. The rest of the movie is about how the three of them get revenge on the person they were supposed to be doing the job for.

The whole movie is intense and exciting. Everything you expect from a Fast and Furious movie.

Mary Poppins

 I was just so excited that this movie was on TV yesterday. Lately, I've been trying to catch the Disney movies as they come out of the vault. This is one I can't wait to reappear again.

When I was younger this was one of my very favorite Disney movies. I knew all the songs and would sing along at the top of my lungs! Yesterday, my mom, brothers and I relived those wonderful days and sang at the top of our lungs to every song :)

The magicalness to this movie is what makes it amazing. Who wouldn't want to have a nanny who seemed to have magical powers and looked and sounded like Julie Andrews? After I watched the movie yesterday, I couldn't get Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious out of my head!

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1

I have a slight obsession with Harry Potter. Not only have I read and watched all the movies and books available several times over BUT 2 family trips have been centered around Harry Potter. The first was two summers ago when my family and I went up to Chicago for a week to visit the Harry Potter exhibit at a museum. The second was when my family and I went to the Harry Potter theme park this past summer at Universal Studios!

This first installment of the Deathly Hallows was so great. I was happy to hear that they are going to do the last book into two parts. I feel that they would not have been able to fit everything into one movie.

This one starts with Harry and his friends getting ready to fly Harry to safety. When they start to leave the house they run into an attack by Voldemort and his followers. Harry makes it to safety but there are two significant casualties in this part. (my brother called me after one happened freaking out!) Harry, Ron, and Hermione set out on their own to finish Dumbledore's work on finding and destroying the horcruxes. The rest of this movie is following the threesome on their adventure.

The movie series has become darker as they have progressed and this part is the darkest yet.

Tron

I love movies with different worlds that I can get lost in. That being said, I love the movie Tron. I have already watched it twice since purchasing the movie on Tuesday. The movie is about a boy, Sam Flynn, who's dad, Kevin Flynn, disappeared when he was young. One day, his dad's friend, Alan Bradley, receives a page from Kevin's old office at the arcade he owned. He tells Sam he should go check the place out. When Sam gets to the arcade he finds a secret room where his dad would do a lot of his work. Sam sits down to the computer in the room, hacks into the system, and his journey onto the grid, the world of Tron begins!

There are a few sentimental moments but overall it is more action scenes. The movie is very futuristic and fun to watch, but you really have to pay attention to completely understand what is going on in the movie.

Get excited for this week!! Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 comes out on Friday!!

Life As We Know It

THis movie stars Katherine Heigl and Josh Duhamel as two people who cannot stand each other. They tried to go on a date but it failed miserably. Alas, they're best friends end up getting married and they are forced to  be in each other's presence. They soon found out they were both named as legal guardians of their friends' baby. The rest of the movie is about the two raising the baby the best that they can.

I fell in love with this movie after watching it. I kept getting hints though of the Kate Hudson movie, Raising Helen. This is definitely a movie I am considering purchasing. I laughed hysterically and cried and there were even a few moments that I just had to aww at. Altogether, definitely a movie worth watching!

Casablanca

I'm a sucker for old movies. Casablanca is one of my very favorite movies of all time. So I decided for this week's post I would talk about it.

Casablanca is a movie that takes place in, of course, Casablanca in Africa during World War II. The movie follows Ilsa and her husband Victor as they try to get to America from Casablanca. Their paths cross with Rick who is their way out. However, Ilsa and Rick have a mysterious past that her husband does not know about.

This is such a wonderful movie and I cry everytime at the airplane scene. This is one old movie that everyone should watch!

Disney Movies!

Hey guys

Spring Break is upon us!!

Last night Ashton and I were flipping threw the channels down here in Fort Myers, Florida and ran across Aladdin on ABC Family. We started asking questions to each other, such as who's our favorite sidekick or who's the worst villian. I decided, for everyone to make some easy points, I'd ask you all a few questions about Disney movies and give my answers to them!

Favorite Sidekicks:     Lumiere and Cogsworth and Mrs. Potts (basically everyone in Beauty and the Beast :))

Worst Villian:     Maleficent (Everything about her was terrifying!)

Hottest Hero:     Prince Phillip

Favorite Princess:     Belle

Favorite Disney Movie:     Beauty and the Beast! I swore when I was little that Belle and I looked exactly like alike :)

Now it's your turn guys!!

Have a wonderful spring break!!
