Not bad dog- bad owners

Advantages: Very sweet dog
Disadvantages: Stupid people

It is said that a bad dog owner makes a bad parent. This film is a product of our supernanny, lack of discipline culture. The dog is naughty, but what do the owners do? Nothing. No telling off, nothing. All I wanted to do was give the dog a smack on the nose and sterilise the owners. Instead they pop out kids like there is no tommorow, and then, surprise, surprise, can't cope. The acting is terrible, the storyline is non existent and mundane. It ...

Review of Easy Virtue

Even best friends can't share the same wedding day.

Advantages: Lots of funny moments, gorgeous dresses, flowers, etc to look at!
Disadvantages: None (in my opinion!)

...Ritz and seeing a beautiful bride coming out of the hotel with her husband on her arm. They make a pact there and then that their wedding will be in June at the very same venue. Liv played by Kate Hudson is a tough Associate lawyer and one of the prestigious law firms in Manhattan. She is known for getting her own way and taking no prisoners along the way.Kate Hudson plays a fantastic part, and will clearly not back down when tough choices need ...
...and is much more likeable as her character is eager to please, and also easily taken advantage of. As the film progresses, the two characters start to change, as the blessed day turns them into evil, desperate women determined to have their perfect day at absolutely any costs. The film is an interesting take on weddings, and most women who have been married will be able to see what the characters are going through. The perfect weddings mean that ...

Review of Bride Wars

pink panther stolen yet again

Advantages: closeu is gonna make you laugh out loud!
Disadvantages: similar theme to the first movie

Thie movie was funny beyond just funny! Although I'll have to admit that the first movie was better and I enjoyed it more but the second one isn't that bad either! It is good for those who need a little laughter in their busy lives. To me it seemed like the plot was very similar to that of the first movie and I sort of had a culprit in my mind and at the end i found out that i was right! Although very expected, I enjoyed it alot because only a few ...

Review of Pink Panther 2

THE WORST DOG IN THE WORLD??

Advantages: Fab film, loved it..
Disadvantages: None for me..

...Worst Dog in The World’, Marley continues to disrupt the couple’s attempts at keeping a nice home and a calm relationship. The mayhem continues throughout the couple’s married life and into the lives of their young offspring when they are born. Time passes, the children grow, the family moves house. And as for Marley?…. Well, he’s still the Worst dog in the world………isn’t he? ~ MY OPINION ~ I thought this was a lovely film. I was under the impression ...
...the actress in other films, Marley & Me really gave her a chance to show her talents to their full potential and would surely silence any critics. Without giving away too much, there are a few really touching moments in the film - one in particular is quite near the start of the film and I felt that the actress was genuinely touched by this storyline. Whether this is the case or not, she handled a delicate subject matter with grace and any viewers ...
