Legally Blonde 2 (2003) Review

This was on TV straight after Legally Blonde, and I had never seen this before today and I kinda wish that I still had not seen it. It really was pretty bad, and I ususally try not to say that about a movie. But after how much I liked the first one (more so at the time it was released) I just thought the storyline in this movie was just too silly. Being about freeing her dog’s mother. I mean come on, hiring a private investigator to find the dogs mother in the first place was just dumb, I really do not know why I continued watching after that . . . but I did.

Legally Blonde (2001) Review

A very popular movie of the early 00′s, and I was such a fan when it first came out. After another viewing today I still think it is a lot of fun to watch and power to the blondes !!! Love it, haha. Yes, it is certainly not the best movie ever made, but it has to be in with a shout for a very good comedy. It also has a good message in it too, that no matter who you are you can do what you want if you set your mind to it.

News: Weaving, Serkis & McKellen For Hobbit

Its about time that this got confirmed, it would not have worked doing “The Hobbit” with different actors as Gandalf, Lord Elrond and Gollum !!!

Here’s one to file under, “Well, duh! But also good”. Guillermo del Toro told Radio 5, as picked up by The One Ring.net, that Sir Ian McKellen, Andy Serkis and Hugo Weaving would be appearing in The Hobbit.It won’t come as any great surprise to, well, anyone, but it is welcome news that those members of the Lord of the Rings cast who also appear in The Hobbit will be playing the roles they originated in Del Toro’s sort-of prequel to Jackson’s trilogy.We’re due a Bilbo casting announcement any day now, but we hope that this tidbit of almost-news will keep you going until then.


37th AFI Life Achievement Award – Michael Douglas

Catherine Zeta Jones helped pay tribute to her husband Michael Douglas, by joining the cast of “A Chorus Line” on stage. :-) Jack Nicholson was there too, which makes me smile even more.

2010 Releases

I guess I have nothing better to do but thought I would have a look into the future of film and pick out some movies that I am looking forward to being released in 2010.

News: Roberts Worried About Playing Bardem’s Love Interest

Awww I just love Jules, so much news about her the past few weeks and I just love it !!!

Julia Roberts is anxious to see how Javier Bardem will sweep her off her feet in their forthcoming film Eat, Pray, Love – after watching the actor’s violent performance in No Country For Old Men.

The actress is set to star alongside Richard Jenkins and Bardem, who falls in love with Roberts’ character during a worldwide journey of self-discovery in the movie, which is based on Elizabeth Gilbert’s best-selling 2006 memoir.

But the Hollywood beauty admits she is having trouble envisioning Bardem in the role of a hopeless romantic after watching him play an awkward-looking and compassionless killer in the 2007 Oscar-winning drama.

She says, “I can’t actually say I’m looking forward to it because I keep picturing him with that evil Beatles haircut. And that can (weapon) – what the hell is in that can? I have some reservations about this, but there are other nice people in the movie before he gets there.”

Filming is scheduled to begin in July and will take place in New York, Italy, India and Bali.


Then She Found Me (2007) Review

My intial thoughts before watching this movie was wow, what a fantastic lead cast of Helen Hunt, Bette Midler, Colin Firth and Matthew Broderick. They certainly did not disappoint, I found this movie to be heartfilled and rather lovely.

I have just come across the first picture of Mickey Rourke as Whiplash from “Iron Man 2″ which is due for release next year.

This really is becoming a movie that I cannot wait to see !!! I really loved “Iron Man” and just to see Mickey in this type of role is going to be great.


The Rebound (2009) Trailer

Shrink (2009) Trailer

I posted the poster for “Shrink” last week, so now here is the trailer !!! I think it looks really good, but yes I am biased because I love Kevin so much.


My Life (1993) Review

Another movie which I had not heard of until searching Netflix, so thanks again to netflix for helping me come across another good movie. So Bobby (Michael Keaton) has a nice like, a wife (Nicole Kidman) who is pregnant with their first child, a very successful business and he has cancer. In order to battle against cancer they try different things. He is first seen on a video camera, this is all in order for his child to know him.

Some news from today . . .

Name Change – LETS GO TO THE MOVIES

So I was thinking that my blog did not really have a name. It was just “My Views on the Movies” . . . which I thought was a little boring.

So from this day forward it is to be known as “LETS GO TO THE MOVIES” and in case your wondering why it is all in capital letters that is because I could not decide which words should begin with capitals.

Any opinions on the new name?
