Isn't It Romantic (2019)

Fun time, Laugh out loud moments and throughly enjoyable!

[9/10 · 15 February 2019]

This was a surprising funny, good time movie. I went to see it opening night and the theater was full and everyone was laughing out loud and hard, many times. I cannot remember the last time I genuinely laughed out loud for a long time, many times during a movie. Maybe you have to be a romantic comedy buff to get all the jokes. There are so many rom-com references that are just hilarious. And the movie is also sweet and endearing as well. A fun, light, clever and thoroughly enjoyable time at the movies.

Second Act (2018)

Nice, lite, Fun, heartwarming movie

I enjoyed this very much. Laughed out loud and was moved to tears. It is not meant to be taken too seriously. If you want a fun, enjoyable night at the movies, I would highly recommend this.

Tumbledown (2015)

Sweet, Touching Movie

[8/10 · 10 April 2017]

I was pleasantly and unexpectedly surprised by this movie. I found it a realistic portrayal of how hard it is to let go of the memory of deep love that is now gone and learning how to move on and sometimes failing and falling down, until suddenly you wake up and life unexpectedly opens up to something new and wonderful. I am surprised by the negative reviews. It is not a romantic comedy or a typical slick, fast paced Hollywood film. But it works as a touching, authentic slice of a life, portraying what loss really looks like and the beauty of love. The music was also really fantastic. A touching little gem.
