Ohh Those Bad Boys...

It's no secret why I liked this movie....but that (or he should i say) isn't the only reason why I liked this movie. Bad Boys II was a terrific action movie with some of the most perfect actors such as Will Smith (of course) Martin Lawrence, and Gabrielle Union.

This intense sequel gave as strong of a story line as the first Bad Boys, except this one had a few more interesting stunts, like cars being thrown on a highway (bet you'll never see that in real life.)

I'll keep this short and sweet, as a movie like this needs no introduction. Overall your guy will absolutely LOVE this movie. It's full of action, suspense, and did I mention violence? You'll also love it to, as there is plenty of eye candy in this movie...if you know what I mean.

I Invite You To See This...

The first half of this movie was shockingly awful...at least that's what I was thinking watching it. But as the movie went on, and new twists were introduced, this movie actually turned out to be pretty good.

The Uninvited tells the story of a family with a lot of secrets. Anna, played by Emily Browning, is a young girl who is traumatized by the death of her mother due to a house fire. Although Anna doesn't remember the frightening night the fire happened, she knows that her father's new girlfriend, whom was once her sick mother's nurse, had something to do with it. By the end of the movie, you think you know how the movie will play out...but boy will you be wrong.


Besides the shocking twist at the end, the plot was not very thought out. Supposedly this movie was a remake of a recent Japanese film called "A Tale of Two Sisters." I would have liked to have seen the original to discover if the plot was as boring as this one. I sat in front of my television thinking, "why is this movie so cliche?"


Luckily I watched until the end, and it was then that I decided to give this movie a chance. But if you have to wait until the end of the movie to be intrigued, then maybe this isnt a great movie to see if you or your guy aren't patient.

Surprisingly And Notoriously Good

One of the most important factors in a relationship is compromise, and during a recent outing with my best friend and our boyfriends, we had to compromise on a movie choice. Surprisingly, the compromise ended in an equally liked experience from all of us with the guys' movie choice.

I'm usually not the type to like hardcore hip-hip legend movies, but I have to admit that this movie surprised me. Notorious is the story of legendary rapper Christopher Wallace, most commonly known as Notorious BIG, and his rise to fame.

With all the sex, drugs and violence surrounding music, I did not expect for this movie to be as insightful and thought-provoking as it was. Although there were brief scenes of all the negativity previously named surrounding hip-hop music, the movie offered a very heart-felt plot, and it showed that every person, no matter from what background has a story to tell.

Notorious BIG grew up in Brooklyn New York, and quickly got involved with the negative activities of his neighborhood. However, the movie tells how Biggie turns his mistakes and misfortunes into learning experiences, and follows his dreams to become the legend he remains today, even after his death.

This movie is a great date movie, but ladies I'll have to say your guy may enjoy this one a little more than you, but you'll be intrigued none the less. But like I said before, compromise is a good thing, not just in making a movie choice...if you know what I mean.

Get Hitched

In case, you haven't noticed, I just can't get enough of this man. Not only is he one of THE sexiest men on this planet, he is also one of the best actors. Let's just say Jada Pinkett-Smith is a very lucky woman. But enough with my rambling...let's get on to this movie.

One movie I happened to watch with my boyfriend this weekend was Hitch, starring Will Smith as Hitch and Eva Mendes as Sara. Hitch is a secret date doctor who helps men land the woman of their dreams. Sara is a gossip columnist who writes about the secretive lives of celebrities and other important people. When Hitch and Sara's paths cross, interesting things happen, and Hitch soon realizes that even he has a few things to learn when it comes to women.


All the while, Hitch takes on his most interesting case yet with Albert Brenneman, a clumsy and carefree accountant. His client Allegra Cole, a rich and almost untouchable woman, catches his eye, and he enlists the help of Hitch to help him win her heart.


Overall, this movie is a great movie to see with a date. It just shows that even a guy that seems to be perfect (well, Will Smith just may be) has a lot to learn when it comes to love. This is a movie that guys can learn a lot from, and women can be blown away by the beautiful love stories intertwined within the movie.

Madea Left Me Dissapointed

Coming from someone who has been an avid Tyler Perry follower since the beginning of his career, this is going to be a shocker; but I was extremely disappointed with Madea Goes To Jail. Overall it was very cliche and it did not grab my attention as anything different or exciting.


The movie follows a group of accomplished attorneys, but mainly engaged couple Joshua (Derek Luke) and Linda (Ion Overman). When Joshua runs into an old friend with whom he has "history" with, it shakes up his enagement more than what he expected.

All the while, Madea, infamous for her run-ins with the law, has encountered trouble yet again. However, unlike every other time when she has been able to narrowly escape her upcoming fate, Madea will be serving jail time.


Tyler Perry's eccentric character known as Madea has run her course, in my opinion. I must not be the only one feeling this way, as Tyler Perry has announced that he has debated letting his character Madea "die a slow death."

But not so fast. Madea has gained a lot of publicity and popularity over time, and although Tyler Perry has admitted he is tired of putting on a dress and playing Madea, the fans want it, so she will be round as long as she is demanded for. Let's just say I won't be excited for the future.

Watchmen was too long to watch!

The time has finally come, and one of the most anticipated movies of 2009 has hit theaters with a bang. The Watchmen, starring Tony award-winning actor Billy Crudup, is the story of a group of superheroes trying to save the world from nuclear war.

As the movie began, it was obvious that the plot would be very in-depth and detailed. The action started with The Comedian, one of the watchmen, being launched from a multi-story building right onto the street below. It was from that point on that I knew I would be at the edge of my seat from this point on.
Set in the year 1985, the film recants the lives of the original watchmen, whose ultimate goal was to protect society farther than the law could reach. Throughout the movie, we follow Walter Kovacs, also known as Rorschach, a fallen watchmen who is worried about the future of the remaining members of his once close-knit "band-of-brothers."

After The Comedian's death, Rorschach became paranoid that someone was trying to "pick off costumed heroes" in an effort to destroy the world, and it turns out he was right. As the movie continues, and the plot thickens, your glued to the back of your chair to watch what will unfold for the next three hours.

Yes, I said three hours.

Don't get me wrong, I'm a sucker for romantic and action-packed plots, which is what this movie offers, but I couldn't help wondering if the movie would ever end. Besides the length, this movie was very well written, and very thought-provoking. It combines the idealism of the world during the Nixon Era with the hopelessnes of a modern society watching and waiting for a modern-day hero. All in all, the action combined with an unforgetable love story is a treat for both a guy and a gal, just as long as you have three hours to spare.
