Eat Pray Love

"A married woman realizes how unhappy her marriage really is, and that her life needs to go in a different direction. After a painful divorce, she takes off on a round-the-world journey to "find herself". " www.imdb.com

I think EVERYONE can relate to this movie. Who hasn't ever felt lost and like they need to find themselves. Of course we can't all go around the world looking for ourselves. We have to figure out our own paths to enlightenment. This is a beautiful movie, powerful story, beautiful scenery. Strong messages we can all learn from. Such a real, honest story.

I first saw this movie during a depressing, lost time in my life. It inspired me to try to find myself again and to figure out what made me who I am. I had to find a source of strength within myself. This movie is truly inspiring. Definately a movie to watch more then once.

America's Sweethearts



"A movie publicist deals with the messy public split of his movie's co-stars while keeping reporters at bay while a reclusive director holds the film's print hostage." www.imdb.com

If you really like incredibly corny romantic comedies than this is the movie for you. It's funny. It's sweet. It's a surprisingly simple story, complicated only by the characters involved. The performances make this story almost believable and makes you wonder if Hollywood actually does stuff like this to fool the public. You hope for a happy ending but you just aren't sure what that means and for who. The cast is amazing and if you have no other reason to watch it than them then it is still worth it.

Cloverfield



"Revolves around a monster attack in New York as told from the point of view of a small group of people." www.imdb.com

Think Godzilla meets Blair Witch Project.

If you want to make a movie but save on production cost, just give the camera to the actors and them then shoot it for you.

Not much to say about this movie. Since you can't really see what going on you can't really tell what's happening. I suppose the acting was good because they were all acting about the same, so apparently the actors understood what was going on. The premise could be more interesting if more of the story was shared.
