Bad Teacher

I must say Cameron Diaz pulled of some evil stares in this movie.
She certainly had me convinced for being a bad teacher.
As for J.T well his performance was meh, but he sure makes a cute nerd.
In the end, good movie that actually teaches a good lesson.

6 stars

Monte Carlo

Selena Gomez first starring role at the box office.
The plot entails 3 girls who venture to Paris, and soon find themselves in Monte Carlo after Gomez is mistaken for an heiress.
We also have the chance in seeing Leighton Meester outside her popular role of Blair Waldorf on Gossip Girl.
In general the storyline was typical and quite predictable. I give this movie 6 stars.

Horrible Bosses

9 stars
My fave movie by far this year.

Hilarious x 3

I enjoyed this movie much more than Bridesmaids, and thought the guy cast was amazing.

Jason Bateman was awesome. But Charlie Spacey definitely stole the show.
I also have to say this my favourite role Jennifer Aniston has ever played. She really went outside the box, and pulled off a great performance. And hey she looks great as a brunette!

I would go in heartbeat to watch this movie again.

Cars 2

Good kids movie with a good mix of humor and spy action.
And of course cool cars and great graphics!
I have yet to see the first Cars movie, but I did enjoy this one. I give this movie 6.5 stars.

Super 8

Super 8 defines a great movie.
8.5 stars
I've waited far too long for a movie like this. It left me jumping, guessing and thirsting for more. This movie will leave you on the edge. The special effects in particular at the beginning were stunning, as well as the sound. I  also had the chance in viewing Elle Fanning; Dakota's Fanning sister, for the 1st time on the big screen (first I've seen her in a movie).  Like her older sibling, she has major potential as well as the remaining kid actors in Super 8- I look forward to seeing them in future films.

Thor

7.5  stars 
I was very much pleased with this movie. It was nothing I had expected and definitely went beyond my expectations. Film remakes along with turning literature and comic book heroes into films are the latest trend. So after seeing Thor, I feared it would be another poorly made film. But it certainly wasn't. For starters, the special effects were amazing. The city of  Asgard and the bridge created between stars was stunning. Nothing I would have imagined. Chris Hemsworth on his part did an excellent job on portraying Thor, and no one could have done it better.
 His stance, 
 His presence,
 His voice was key. 

His co-stars were just as good, and my fave by far was Idris Elba who played the role of Heimdall. In th end, I'm going to guess that a sequel will shortly follow-but we'll just have to wait and see!

Bridesmaids

8 stars
Nothing can prepare you for the first scene of this movie.

Totally unexpected.
Totally inappropriate. 

This movie surely didn't waste any time and jumped right into awkward moments that were just down right entertaining. What appreciated most was the main character's development in which they faced multiple problems and the movie didn't focus solely on one. All the bridesmaids in the movie of course had their own sense of personality that really gave this movie an edge, in particular Meghan. I have yet to see the Hangover, but if its anyway close to Bridesmaid I can't wait. This is a movie that will make you laugh and cry. I know I did.
