Hope Springs (2003)

July 19th, 2010 · No Comments

Predictable and boring comedic romance about a guy that thinks he got dumped, runs away to America, crazy fiance’ follows him and he falls in love with a local girl. Oliver Platt is amusing as the mayor. imdb.com Colin Ware (played by Colin Firth) arrives in the most hopeful sounding town he can find to [...]

Confessions of a Shopaholic (2009)

December 13th, 2009 · No Comments

Happy ending, rich guy, everyone finding their true calling? Well, how the hell could that happen in a Hollywood film straight from the best seller shelves of Borders and the plot machine for chick flicks? Girl finds love in buying things. Loses everything, gets unexpected job giving financial advice while being stalked by creditors, finds [...]

Bride Wars (2009)

November 18th, 2009 · No Comments

Though I found this film enjoyable for some Saturday night viewing, I did have a few problems. 1. Who believes that Kate Hudson and Anne Hathaway are the same age? Though the two actresses supposedly only have 3 years difference in their actual age, I fail to actually believe it. 2. What kind of a [...]

Ghost Town (2008)

September 13th, 2009 · No Comments

Ricky Gervais as the completely misanthropic dentist turned romantic is an odd concept. I never expect Gervais to play a romantic anything. But he pulls it off to a point with subtle humor. It is sort of fun to watch the character grow and learn that how he is living isn’t really working for him [...]

I’ll Be There (2003)

September 11th, 2009 · No Comments

Craig Ferguson continually delivers sweet little UK films with a happy ending. You can count on it. And as we have come to do so, we decided to watch this film. We knew it wouldn’t be too heavy and that everything would be great in the end. And it was. A musician knocks up a [...]

Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist (2008)

August 15th, 2009 · No Comments

How can you not root for a Michael Cera character? You want him to get the girl, the RIGHT girl. Things have to work out for his characters or there just really is no justice in the world. And in this film he does. They love the same things, they connect despite ex’s getting in [...]

Bring It On (2000)

August 5th, 2009 · No Comments

We have a weakness for these films and realized when we came across this a couple days ago, that it wasn’t listed on the site, only the others were (Bring It On: All Or Nothing (2006), Bring It On: In It To Win It (2007)). So this is the film that started it all. It [...]

I Could Never Be Your Woman (2007)

August 2nd, 2009 · No Comments

Ok, Paul Rudd is on my fives. He is adorable and funny. There is not a Paul Rudd film I wouldn’t watch and probably very few I haven’t. So this film was a must. This film was never released in the theatres. One film festival and straight to DVD. It wasn’t a bad film, but [...]
