Movie Review/Winner

Before I get to my review of an amazing movie, I'd like to announce the winner of The Brevity of Roses. The lucky winner of this awesome book is: Christi Craig! And Christi, it was actually your tweet entry that was the winning number, so thanks for the tweet. :) I'll be sending you an email shortly to get your info.

Now, on to a movie review




Thanks to Jenn Johansson for recommending this movie to me when I called her in an 'I'm on my way to the theatre help me choose an awesome movie' panic. She came through because let me tell you, this movie is AWESOME. It's even a movie you can take your parents to and not squirm uncomfortably the whole time. I thought it might be based on a book (because aren't most amazing movies based on books?) but it doesn't look like it is.

Anyway, this isn't much of a review because I don't feel like I can tell you any details without giving things away. In fact, I went without knowing ANYTHING about it. I leaned over to my friend right before it started and said, 'Uh, do you know what this is about?' And she said, 'Not at all.' We both laughed and said, 'You better know what you're talking about, Jenn,' then settled in for awesomeness.

  1. Man,I wish I would have known this sooner! The other week I went to Red Riding Hood with my friend and it was AWFUL. Like in, I-can't-believe-I-stayed-for-the-whole- movie awful. I guess we should have gone to Source Code! I'll take my hubby this weekend.

  3. I've heard many great reviews about this movie. With movies costing so much lately, it's important to pick wisely.
