Four Christmases
My movie choice of this week was "Four Christmases". This film was really fun to watch and you should rent this movie because you will enjoy the comedy, drama, and romance. This film is about a couple name Brad (Vince Vaughn) and Kate (Reese Witherspoon) who come from a family of divorces. Not only they don’t want to get married out of fear of becoming like their dysfunctional folks, but they avoid them for the holidays. Brad and Kate accomplish that by lying to their families telling them they are doing charity work in foreign countries, but when their flight to Fiji is cancel they are interview by a news station on TV. After being seen on TV by their families they are forced to spend Christmas with not just one family but all four of them. Now that I told you a bit about the plot let me explain why you will enjoy this film.
"Four Christmases" was actually pretty funny. I caught myself laughing on the very first scene which was a really good sign. One of my favorite funny scenes was when Brad gets the snot kicked out of him by both his brothers and nephews and one of the nephews says "Google me bitch". Also the secrets each one of them had carefully kept from each other are quite funny. Another reason why I found this film pretty funny it’s because I’m a big fan of Vince Vaughn who I believe is a very funny actor. This film is rated: PG-13 for some sexual humor and language but other than that it is a perfect family film which you decide if the little ones get to watch.
I really thought the drama in this film was really good. Can you imagine meeting your lover’s family for the first time and not knowing what to expect. Well on this movie you get to see all the drama between the families and why Brad and Kate avoided their families in the first place. I also enjoy the romance in this film because after all the drama you come to realize what is important in life and what matters to you the most. Another reason why romance was one of my favorite parts of this movie is because at the beginning of this film my girlfriend and I were arguing but by the end of this film somehow we ended up Snuggling. I guess we too also came to realize what matters to us both. In conclusion I rate this movie a 5 out of 5 since I enjoyed the comedy, drama, and especially the romance.

Over the weekend I decided to rent the movie “Bruno”. Sacha Baron Cohen last film “Borat” was actually quite funny but “Bruno” was the worst movie I ever saw. This film was a waste of time, not funny, and just plain stupid. On this review I’ll let you know what other people thought and my opinion towards this movie. This film wasted 82 minutes of my life that I wish I could get back. The first few minutes of this movie I was waiting and waiting for something funny to happened but I didn’t laugh that’s when I wanted to turn this movie off. Now I’m here to let you know that this movie sucks and you’re better off watching something on television.
The reason why I felt this movie was not funny at all is because you can compare this film to Sacha’s last movie “Borat” and is a lot like it just way less funny. I also felt that Sacha was trying too hard to be funny but did not succeed. Another reason why I felt this movie is not funny is because I don’t enjoy watching two guys making out or Sacha’s private parts. A lot of the scenes that where meant to be funny where plain stupid. For example there’s a scene where Bruno

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen
Did you like the first Transformers movie? Well if you did then you would sure love the second "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen".This film was a bit long but you will not be dissapointed since its non stop action and great special effects keeps you focus on the screen. What makes this movie so entertaining is that not only theres lots of explosions and battles but you also get to see hot girls like Megan Fox and Isabel Lucas. Also there is many cool cars and a introduction to many new Decipticons.
Watch this movie because of the never ending action, comedy, and Transformations.
My favorite scenes of this film was of course the action. One of them took place in the forest when Optimus Prime rips that big robot's face apart with his hooks right before he gets killed himself. Another cool scene was when Sam (Shia LaBeouf) is seduced by a creepy hot girl, Isabel Lucas who turns into a robot and tries to kill him. Even tho there was alot of action there was also some funny scenes. One of my favorite parts of the movie takes place in Mikaela Banes ( Megan Fox) garage because I find it really funny to see a small robot cursing at Mikaela calling her a "crazy bitch". Another funny scene I really like was when Sam's mom eats the maijuana brownies and starts going wild all tru out the campus.
One word to describe the special effects on the new transformers movie is "AMAZING". There is so many special effects in this movie from cars to air plaines turning into robots. One of my favorite transformations is the Isabel Lucas when she turns from human to killer robot. Overall I really loved this movie therfor I rate it a perfect 5 out of 5 since there is lots of action,funny scenes, and many new transformers.
