movie 8

Made of Honor

Funny that I should have watched this after recently having claimed to have never heard of nor seen anything with Michelle Monaghan (spelled wrong, I'm sure) in it.  Still don't like her.  Maybe even like her less now.

I really thought this movie would be right up my alley, but I was a little disappointed.  It was MEGA predictable, which is usually fine by me, but in this case it was kinda boring.  Maybe doesn't help that the book I'm reading (and HAVE BEEN READING FOR LIKE A MONTH!!) is sort of the same premise - old friends and their destiny to be together.  And the book SUCKS. But I digress....

The man character - I can't even remember who played him. Patrick Dempsey? - realizes he is in love with his best friend and he wants to tell her when she returns from a month-ish long trip to Scotland.  Except she comes back, and she's engaged to some Scot who, as it turns out, is semi-royalty.  The guy is weird and you have no idea what the Michelle M character is doing with him.  You KNOW they can't go through with the marriage.  So..... Basically what transpires is like two hours of getting to that point and seeing the two people end up together.  Yaaaaay.

Yeah, I didn't really like it.  Also, I'm majorly failing at movies.

movie 7

Grandma's Boy

the people at steve's job insisted he watch this because it was "hilarious."

if by hilarious they meant totally juvenile and a waste of 94 minutes of my life, then yes, hilarious.

i have nothing more to say about this film. at least it counted toward my 50.....
