So I've seen a couple of movies lately that I haven't seen before (whether they are really new or really old) and I'd like to take a little of your time (good Maroon 5 song, by the way) and share my experiences with you. Just humour me...
The Invention of Lying
I saw this movie in theatres a few weeks ago and it was freaking hilarious (as are most Ricky Gervais movies, because he's awesome)! However, since Ricky Gervais is an Atheist, so was the movie and apparently a lot of Christians are really offended over the content, however, I thought it was hilarious and I'm definately going to buy it!
Footlight Parade
It's an early talkie/musical, and I know it's certainly not supposed to be a hilarious as it turned out to be, but I could not stop laughing!
My favourite line:
Nan to her roommate Vivian: "As long as they've got sidewalks, you've got a job!"
Oh burn!!
And may I mention how much I love early movie trailers. They don't advertise the movie, they advertise the stars, the spectacle and the girls...
Where The Wild Things Are
Oh this one is my favourite of the three. I just saw this one two nights ago in theatres and I absolutely LOVED it! I saw it because I loved the book when I was little and the trailer looked awesome. The movie was just amazing! It may have lacked a tad plot-wise, but it was made up completely by the heart (boy, I sound so cheesey). There were just so many emotions you get when you watch it: happiness, sadness, excitement, fear; it's just... lovely! I will even admit that I teared up near the end. Highly recommended to everybody! I also really loved the way they made the "wild things". They had completely real bodies (with stunt people inside to do the moving of these giant costumes), and only the faces were CG to give them realistic facial characteristics. It looked amazing!
*Applauding with admiration for Spike Jonze*
Well, thanks for joining me for Jackie's Movie Review Corner. Hope you have a nice day!
