Week 4 Of Love Movies!

Week 4: Valentine's Day! This movie takes place in Los Angeles California! It follows the stories of many people on valentines day and shows how they are all intertwined. It was a unique twist on the holiday and proved to be very entertaining. I enjoyed watching it because I watched it on valentines weekend, but I would suggest waiting to watch it until next valentines day or wait for it to come out on video.

This was the fourth and final week of love movies. All I could think about when watching this moving is how much I wanted to live in Los Angeles or Southern California someday. I enjoyed my month of love movies and plan to go see many more movies in the next few months.

A Sacramento Filled Day

I was just sitting there in book of mormon class and then this kid raises his hand and he starts talking about the Sacramento Temple Celebration, and then another girl was like hey I was there too, and then someone else and I was thinking we Sacramento Folk are well represented in the BYU community.
Then that afternoon I received mail from home from the city of Sacramento itself.
It was a great day!
I love Sacramento and miss the people and the trees!

Week 3 of Love Movies!

I cannot believe that it is already week 3!

Week 3: Dear John: this movie is based on a book by nicholas sparks who wrote the oh so famous the notebook. It takes place in present day with a soldier who is in the army for Iraq. He meets a girl when he is at home on leave and falls in love with her, but has to go back into the army, so they begin to write letters to each other back and forth.

I give the movie 4 out of 5 stars because it exceeded my expectations for a movie that I expected to be really cheesy, it was not. It is constantly filled with twists and turns and had me saying what? a lot. Overall a good movie, if you are dying to see it go for it, but it is okay to wait for the dollar theater or even video.

Just a side note, the very best part of the whole movie was the awkward couple sitting next to me, who would not touch each other until like the last 30 minutes of the movie the boy suddenly and kind of aggressively puts his arm around the girl and then they begin to cuddle. haha i found it kind of funny.

Week 2 of Love Movies

Week 2: When In Rome: A woman (Kristin Bell) travels to Rome for her sister's wedding and tries her luck at making a wish in the fountain of love. She takes some coins out of the fountain, which causes the owner of the coins to fall madly in love with her. The owners of the coins follow her to NYC and chase her for days trying to get her to fall in love with them (John Heder, Danny Devito, Dax Shephard, Josh Duhamel, and Will Arnet)

I give this story line 5 stars. This movie was very fast paced and interesting throughout. Not to mention it was pretty funny. Although this movie is VERY unrealistic and is just an urban myth it still was easy to relate to. I like movies I can relate to. I would suggest going to this whenever you want, morning, noon, or night.

Next Week: Dear John....

Week 1 Of Love Movies

So a friend and I have decided to go see all of these love movies that are coming out for the valentine's day season. It is very funny actually because I am typically not a huge fan of these types of movies, but I have been enjoying myself.
Anyways

Week 1: Leap Year: A woman (Amy Adams from Enchanted) decides she wants her boyfriend to become her fiance. He is on a business trip in Ireland and a tradition in Ireland is that on Leap Day a woman can propose to a man, so she sets out to propose to him.

I give this one 3 stars because although funny at times this movie had a lot of seriousness to it as well. I also felt that it would never happen in real life and therefore could not really relate to the movie. I would suggest waiting for the dollar theater or for it to come on DVD to watch it.

Next week: When In Rome....
