The Twilight Saga: Eclipse (2010)
fine
I really can't understand why people would rate it so low of a score when in reality it wasn't that bad. My guess it has to do with the fact that like me they are kind of tired of the hype that has been given to certain things like Jacob's chest and not the actual love story that is happening. Or because they have finally realized how stupid the actual concept of the story sounds.
I myself have read all the books, and have for the most part enjoyed all the movies. I don't think it deserves higher than a six because it just wasn't amazing, it didn't wow me and the acting was terrible to say the least. But I am a loyal fan, I liked the story and I am not afraid to say so and yes I have read other books. I am not an over obsessing teenager, who dreams of a romance with a vampire and can't get over how hot Taylor Lautner has gotten.
The movie was way too acted out, these actors for the most part do not know how to act at all. Taylor unfortunately is not the best actor in the world, and ended up being a bit too dramatic for my liking. And lets not mention Robert Pattinson and his very furious faces; it was beyond annoying. I don't even want to get started with Kristen because just hearing her awkward voice makes me flinch.
So why did I dress up, on a Friday night to go see a movie that I knew had so many wrong things going for it? I think I did it because I am loyal to the story and my curiosity couldn't stop me from playing out.
It had its cute moments and I have to give it up for the man who plays Charlie because he alone drags this whole movie around. Without him, I strongly believe the Twilight Movies would have died long ago. My favorite scenes would have definitely been the ending ( and not because I wanted it to finish), and the snow scene ( although I can't quite say why). It was decent, if you are a twilight loving teenager then you won't be disappointed with the many showings of Taylor Lautner's very poised behind. ( no nude scenes though)
I also wanted to say that I enjoyed finally hearing some of the characters actually talking now, (finally the vampires speak)
So I suggest you go see it, it is really not that bad, we were sitting next to an old couple and they truly enjoyed as well. Try not to go watch it in places with many teenagers because you will hear a lot of noise and hopefully you will have better luck getting seats then the ones I got.
Letters to Juliet (2010)
It's decent
I really was excited to see this movie and to be honest I felt it really accomplished all my expectations. this is a typical love story, very similar to Romeo and Juliet's and if you have read the synopsis you will probably feel complete adoration for Claire. The romance that she felt for Lorenzo was very cute, and I am not usually keen to like old people romance but it had my stomach in jitters when they reunited.
Now the film does have its stupid and very very cheesy parts. Particularly the end, I am not going to say much, to not spoil it but it was just ... stupid. Anyways it doesn't really take much away from the actual film, it was very beautiful, Verona is gorgeous and the scenery itself already gives this movie a complete boost it otherwise would have not have. If you like romantic movies, but are not very critical to predictability and just want something cute with a very likable cast, and not to mention good looking actors then give it a go. I enjoyed it!
Mercy (2009)
This show is great!
Now I have never seen any other nurse shows so I can't really compare but all I can say this show is so beautifully made. Although I don't watch it when it first premieres instead I opt for on demand I find this show to be really great and refreshing. I love the three main nurses, they are very likable and each of them has their own unique story. There is a lot of dramatization but I guess everyday is a new thing in the ER. Nonetheless , this show should not be missed, as I said before I can't compare it to any other since I haven't seen any of them but this show tops. I am really hoping and crossing my fingers that there will be a second season, although it seems unlikely, because that season finale was just too much to not want to continue watching this!
