Movie Review - New Moon

Welcome to What Wrinkles? Movie Review

Some movies are worth the watch, while others fall flat and disappoint.

Here's what I think about ...


New Moon
What Wrinkles? Movie Review...3 out of 5!

Fantasy, romance, drama, teen drama released in November 2009
Starring - Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner, Billy Burke, Ashley Greene, Jackson Rathbone, Russell Roberts, Cam Gigandet, Michael Sheen, Jamie Campbell Bower....

This whole vampire vs. werewolf love story/series has had me hooked from the first novel and then movie, both of which I thoroughly enjoyed and considered an easy read and a good watch. Then I got into book two which was very boring not unlike the second movie. Editing and condensing comes to my mind, thinking they probably didn't need that many novels and movies to explain this story ;) Some of the graphics and slow motion scenes were a bit lame and the script too. I loved watching Edward in the first movie but now he, or 'his character', seems a little full of himself. Will I still watch part 3 and 4 you ask? Hell ya!...

...I'm still torn between the Cullen's and the Werewolves but have no desire to read the third or fourth novel to find out what happens. I'll just wait until the movies get released and take it from there.

Who's do you think is right for Bella; Edward or Jacob? ...her life seems happier and more relaxed with Jacob yet clearly her passions lay with her first love, the blood sucker, so we'll see!

What Wrinkles? Movie Review - The Bounty Hunter

Welcome to What Wrinkles? Movie Review


Some movies are worth the watch while others
fall flat and disappoint. Here's what I think about ...



The Bounty Hunter
Movie Review... 2.5 out of 5!

Comedy- Released in 2010
Starring - Jennifer Aniston, Gerard Butler, Giovanni Perez, Joel Garland

Two ex's reunite under unusual circumstances that have them both running for their lives and from each other. Together or apart the two characters Milo and Nicole realize that even though they didn't shine together as a couple as each others nemesis, they may just make it!

...this movie had my attention initially but within a half hour it was boring and I had to keep convincing myself to continue watching and to stay focused! The couples chemistry is evident and I love the sarcasm and quick wit but this movie was just a downer. I loved Jen back in Friends but I've yet to find another character that she's played where I can feel the same way and Gerard, well, he just doesn't do it for me (nor did Ross by the way ;)

Movie Review - 2012

Welcome to What Wrinkles? Movie Review

Some movies are worth the watch while others
fall flat and disappoint. Here's what I think about ...


2012

Movie Review...3.75 out of 5!
Action Adventure - Released in 2009

Starring - John Cusack, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Amanda Peet, Liam James, Morgan Lily, Thomas McCarthy, Zlatko Burić, Beatrice Rosen, Oliver Platt, Thandie Newton, Danny Glover, and Woody Harrelson.

This movie is definitely not a chic flic nor my type of must see movie and after watching it I'm reminded of why. Not that the story wasn't good or the concept but some of the graphics bothered me and it was just a little too far fetched. The escape from destruction was way too coincidental and they (the family the movie evolves around) seriously have horseshoes up their wazoo's!

...this movie was okay to watch once but I may not have sat through it's entirety if we weren't watching it together as a family. Oh, and I've never been a huge fan of John Cusack (sorry John ;) whom I didn't realize was also the star of this movie!

Movie Review - Sex and the City

Welcome to What Wrinkles? Movie Review

Some movies are worth the watch while others
fall flat and disappoint. Here's what I think about ...


Sex and the City
Movie Review...5 out of 5!
 Drama - Released in 2008
Starring - Sara Jessica Parker, Kim Cattrall, Kristin Davis, Cynthia Nixon, Chris Noth, David Eigenberg, Evan Handler

Carrie and the girls shine in this movie. I love Carrie's intro dress and Vivienne Westwood!...but I'm not going to tell you anything else except that the triles and tribulations of finding and keeping long lasting love can be earth shattering and not always in a good way. You'll need the tissue for this 'me' night movie.

...Sex and the City is a movie I waited far too long to see and with part 2 coming out soon, it was time to watch! I'm so glad too, this movie is the perfect closure to the show and simply has me hooked!

It's action versus chick flicks. Which summer movie sequel will you see? Iron Man(R) 2 or Sex and the City(R) 2? Tell us. Then get a $100 movie gift card FREE, details apply.

Movie Review - The Blind Side

Welcome to What Wrinkles? Movie Review

Some movies are worth the watch while others
 fall flat and disappoint. Here's what I think about ...


The Blind Side
Movie Review... 4 out of 5!
Drama - Released in 2009
Starring - Sandra Bullock, Tim McGraw, Quinton Aaron, Jae Head, Lily Collins

The Blind Side is a very touching story of how one single person can touch so many lives and how those lives take the time to notice and actually care back. This movie really is heart warming and I think I enjoyed simply because it's based on a true story. Quinton as Michael is a great choice!

...this movie portrays a family who went through an entire change of living without many pitfalls, they only touched lightly on that side of the subject. I'm wondering if it was as easy to conform, for everyone, as the movie suggests or was it just way too much to cover? This movie helps to maintain my belief that there are good people in this world! :) and kept me interested for the most part (except for when they delved into football a little much). This is a tissue in hand type of movie. Enjoy!

Movie Review - The Time Traveler's Wife

Welcome to What Wrinkles? Movie Review

Some movies are worth the watch while others fall flat and disappoint. Here's what I think about ...


The Time Traveler's Wife
Movie Review... 3.5 out of 5!
Romance - Released in 2010
Starring - Eric Bana, Rachel McAdams, Ron Livingston

The Time Traveler's Wife is an interesting and unimaginable love story that reflects how time strengthens and tests the bonds of love felt between two people.

...Rachel McAdams is awesome as usual (huge fan here!) and her co-star Eric is not hard on the eyes ;) This movie is definetly worth the watch but in the end I felt like I needed / wanted more. One square of tissue for this one, as for a Part 2? I'd watch it.

Movie Review - Valentine's Day


Welcome to What Wrinkles? Movie Review

Some movies are worth the watch while others fall flat and disappoint. Here's what I think about ...


Valentine's Day

Movie Review... 2.5 out of 5!
Romantic Comedy - Released in 2010
Starring - Jessica Alba, Kathy Bates, Jessica Biel, Bradley Cooper, Eric Dane, Patrick Dempsey, Hector Elizondo, Jamie Foxx, Jennifer Garner, Topher Grace, Anne Hathaway, Carter Jenkins, Ashton Kutcher, Queen Latifah, Taylor Lautner, Julia Roberts, Shirley Maclaine, George Lopez and Taylor Swift!..

Valentine's Day is a movie based around...Valentine's Day! and shows how romance, love and entanglements effect people of all ages including, families, friends, lovers and strangers. 
 
...this movie brought together some of my favorite stars but in the end squeezed from me only a few smiles and but one square of tissue. There were so many characters and stories going on that it was hard to attach myself to most of the characters. For a romantic chic flick, the beginning of Valentine's Day offered promise (like in real life, how ironic) but in the end, Valentine's Day fell flat (like in real life, how ironic ;)

Estimated release date Valentine's Day on Video - June 2010
