Superbad (2007)

ha just ha!!

[10/10 · 13 May 2019]

I have to admit that I didn't really want to watch this film back in 2007/2008. I remember my brother saying I should watch it and the title of the film didn't really intrigue me but i thought i would give it a go, and glad I did. The film plot is very simple, and some could sat stupid or silly, but i feel this film is good because the plot is simple. I personally have to be in the right mood to watch a film that requires a good amount of concentration and lots of questioning. A simple story is often good. The films jokes are kind of like" Teen humor", but it it done in a way that is funny to all. I also enjoy the fact that they rip into the police/cops, and he mclovin scene in the shop is my favorite scene in the whole of the film. watch it you wont be disappointed.

Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County (2004–2006)

Like, Lauren Conrad and the Hills was the only good things about this show..like

[1/10 · 8 May 2019]

OK, so this show is absolute garbage at its best. The characters in the show are not likable, well apart from LC which I am pleased to say made something out of herself, with a little help from this show. The teens can barley speak a full sentence of English and the things they say are full of the words "like" and "narley" and after while it become exhausting. Most of the scenes shot are absolutely pointless. For example the have quite lengthy scenes that surround discussions about small social events, which are obviously a big deal to them, because they are from rich family's and have no real worry's. The teens take so long to make a point and most of the time the conversation is pointless. They say things like "Like, is Jason going to the party? .... well if he talks to me i'm like going to get so mad and like I'm like literally never gonna speak to him again. And like if Alex's is there I will like be friendly but.... like you know no not too friendly like". As stated, the cast don't have much other worries because they were born into money, so they focus on drama which is usually surrounds people who are using people as a weapon against another person. Jason is a big character who basically spends all his time messing with girls heads and the girls are so stupid they blame each other and don't realize he is doing it all to boost his ego. However, one good thing is that the Hills was a spin off to this ridiculous show, and to be honest, it was a lot better. Don't watch this show, give the hills a watch, it is a lot better.

Notting Hill (1999)

British films are the best

[10/10 · 5 April 2019]

Such a heart warming film. Yes the story line is cheesy, but you end up loving it. This is probably because Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts are so talented and pull of their rolls so well . They also have two other very famous actors that are brilliant. These people being Emma Chamber and Rys Ifan. Also, from what I can read on google most of the other actors are very famous and talented also which probably also adds the how good the film is. The meaning behind the story is that just because someone is famous doesn't mean they are not normal like everyone else. Like Anna Scott states in the film, she says something like "The whole fame thing is fake really. I'm just a girl who likes a boy". This film will send a much needed message to young people these days that famous people are just normal people and are no different to anybody else. Yes there are benefits to being famous making lots of money, meeting other famous people, doing all the things you dreamed of. However, the down falls can have dramatic effects on the person. I mean if you were famous you could't just go out for a casual stroll with your hair a mess and no makeup on because you would probably end up with your face plastered all over some silly magazine and this film highlights this. This film is heart warming with also a good humor all the way through. You must see it.

My Sister's Keeper (2009)

you will cry when watching this film

[10/10 · 4 April 2019]

This film probably effected me more than any other film has. I actually cant think of any other film that goes into such detail about cancer as this film. I mean it would have to well thought out for it to be successful without depressing everyone, which this film does. The story grips you, or gripped me, because i had never heard of a child being put on the earth to be used as a source to help a cancer victim live their lives. I the story suggests that if the girl with cancer had anything wrong with her, her sister was immediately used, as donor in a sense, to help her sibling fight her cancer. For example the straw that broke the camels back was when they asked for Anna if she could donate a kidney to kate. However, Anna probably did want to be in charge of her own body, who would want to be careful all their life? but ,Kate wanted to be cancer free and that is why Anna took legal action to say she matter too and didn't want to "Do it anymore" in her words. They highlighted the pain that Anna also went through when giving parts of her body to Kate. Yes Kate suffered a huge amount, but Anna also suffered. The mother who Cameron Diaz plays is only thinking about her feelings, and how she could not cope if she lost Kate, but is not thinking about the bigger picture. You have sympathy for the mother because having a child with cancer must be horrendous, but however, you do feel she is being selfish by using her other child as a donor for her child with cancer and is not thinking of her feelings. So there is conflicted feeling in the film. Ok, so if you get upset easily prepare yourself because you are very likely to cry, but you should watch it, its very touching.

Sex Tape (2014)

i don't get the negative reviews. This film isn't the best, but its not the worst.

[7/10 · 4 April 2019]

Yes some could say the story line is silly, which to be fair, it kind of is. However, i found the story line quite believable. I know people that have have nude pictures or nude videos on their i phones that have been transferred to another device because of the i cloud sync, which doesn't surprise me . if you are new to apple products etc, how could you be aware of this. However, the part on the movie where they give the i pads away is a little silly. this movie could have been horrendous but, Cameron Diaz and Jason Segel are brilliant actors so the movie was good. However, I have to admit this isn't Cameron Diaz's best film and doesn't show how goof her acting can be . I think shes shows this in more serious roles such as my sisters keeper, and the holiday. Overall worth a watch, its not too intense so would be a good one to watch with friends.

My Best Friend's Wedding (1997)

no! Didn't like the plot

[5/10 · 3 April 2019]

Ok, so I didn't like this film because the plot is silly really. The main character that Julia Roberts plays is not likeable one bit. She is selfish and self serving and even Julia Roberts couldn't make you like the main character, so the story was doomed from the start. If Julia Roberts. Ant make the character likeable than who can? How could you suddenly decide that you love someone after 9 years of being friends with them? You ether know or you don't. The reason why the main character decided this is because the man she once had wrapped around her little finger wasn't at her beck and call anymore and wanted the character all to herself which is wrong. The way the main character tries to get her own way is also calculated and cruel which leaves the viewer having no sympathy for them. You actually end up liking the character Cameron Diaz plays because of her niaveity. Although this is probably the worst roll I have ever seen her play and it's probably the worst I have ever seen her look. So overall not really worth watching.

The Girl on the Train (2016)

Oh, hello Phoebe Buffay!!

[9/10 · 15 March 2019]

Ok, so this film is good, but when you have read the book and then watch the film, the shock factor that the book gave you is gone. I still enjoyed this film even though I knew what the outcome of the film was. People criticised this film, and I believe this is because you can never truly match the experience you have when reading a brilliant book like girl on the train with watching a film based around the book. Reading stimulates the creative mind, so each person creates their own "film" when reading, in a way. People slated it because the characters didn't look like what they expected and where the film was based was different to how they saw it etc. Well everyone has a different imagination don't they.? I'm sure Paula Hawkins wasn't prepared for the media coverage she got let alone the book being created into a movie. However, I do agree with the opinion that it was a shame that the film was filmed in America because the book is based in London. However, I do question if they would be able to film in London because of the trains etc being so busy? It was a bit weird that the Rachel was British and the rest of the actors were American. I also kind of agree with the views that Emily blunt is too pretty to play Rachel, yes she is too pretty because Rachel is supposed to be a fat alcoholic, but then again, could anyone pull off the role as Rachel as good as Emily blunt ? Probably not. Her acting as a drunk person is so good she almost looks like she is possessed at certain points in the film ha! Oh and the title of the review is there because that's what I said to mylself, obviously in my head, whilst in the cinema, when I saw Lisa kudrow. I wasn't told she was in it, she only has a small part, but I think it is a crucial part of the film. It was nice to see that she is a diverse actress, and can take on a role of a completely different character. The book is overall better, but the film is good, also.

After Life (2019–2022)

Well done Ricky Gervais

[10/10 · 15 March 2019]

Wow! I wasn't expecting after life to be as good as it was, it really makes you think and stays in your mind hours after watching it. It's a even balance of highlighting grief, which can be a hard subject, but then also making you laugh with some brilliant jokes. I think these days people view death as something that happens and that everyone should eventually "get over" it after a period of time, but some don't. I mean we have all met people that are miserable? just like the main character, well I most definitely have anyway. When I was younger I just assumed that some people were just miserable, because they chose to be, but this isn't the real picture. The question I always ask myself nowadays why are they this way ?and that way? etc and losing someone could be the reason. However, the main character eventually realised that he had every reason to live and he had people around him that actually cared, which is a big reason to carry on even when you feel there is no light at the end of the tunnel. Brilliant series, that can lift your mood if things are tuff.

Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging (2008)

Fun film for family

[8/10 · 13 March 2019]

I enjoyed this film. To be honest , hadn't a clue that the film was based around a book or books when I watched it. It seems like this is what most of the reviews are based around, comparing the book to the film, which is natural to do. I thought the film brought back memories of what it is like to be a teenager and obsessed with boys and kissing etc. The film is silly funny and not offensive at all, and I don't think there is one swear word in it, so a good film to watch if you have children and are struggling to find a film you will all enjoy. The acting is good considering I have never heard of any of the actors in the film, apart from I think I have seen the dad In something before ,but don't know what. However, some say that the main character In the film has a weird accent ,but to be honest I think it was a mixture of her accent and a bit of a unusual sounding voice, I kind of liked her voice after a while. Overall,a good film for a family to watch and maybe if you are looking to watch something light hearted and easy to follow .

Pompidou (2015)

Silly, but funny

[8/10 · 6 March 2019]

I must admit at first I didn't really get it. However, as the series went on I found it funnier and funnier. I kept questioning why is he (matt Lucas) speaking like that? But then I realised that it's kind of a mr bean sort of comedy, as other people have stated in the reviews. Yes he is talking a load of gibberish, but you know what he isn't really saying because of his actions. I mean it's no little Britain, and I don't think anything that matt Lucas does will be quite as good because it was so popular and so different when is came out. However, this is very creative and clever. Matt Lucas is so talented and people are so quick to criticise. yes I am guilty of saying things like that was rubbish or whatever when I was younger but I don't say these things anymore because I think to myself I could never create something like this. it is so hard these days to come up with something that would please all people and I couldn't do it. I do slate things that I don't see any creativity in, like reality shows full of uneducated people, that have been created purely for money purposes, but we should appreciate real talent, even though it may be not as good as the last thing really good they created. Ok so overall funny, give it a try , although it might not be for everyone.

Isn't It Romantic (2019)

a suprise twist

[10/10 · 5 March 2019]

When i first watched this I thought that it was going to go a certain way but then there is a twist to the story which makes the film so much better. It doesn't meet the cliche' of a normal Romcom as you would think. It kind of mocks romantic comedies by the main character Natalie openly disliking Romcom beacuse of all of the things she suggests are wrong with them, and this in some ways is true, they usually are unrealistic and cheesy,but you love to hate them. I loved all the songs throughout and loved Rebel Willson's singing and dancing, it was fun to watch. To be hones,t this isnt the funniest iv seen of her, but the film is still funny. The message the films sends is not the usual message a ROMCOM sends, it's saying "You must love yourself before someone else can love you". This is such a true message and I think Romcoms send a false message to people thinking they should find the love of their life and walk into the sunset to together and life will be perfect. No, sorry that isnt what happens, we all know that. So it is nice to see a new message being sent to younger people.

I Feel Pretty (2018)

the story has a good meaning

[10/10 · 5 March 2019]

Yes, people have been very critical about this film. Some suggest that the story is giving out the wrong message to women by suggesting that women have to hit their heads in order to feel pretty. To be honest, I dont think the film is saying that at all. I think it is saying that if you believe in something it will happen. Amy shumers character wanted more than anything to be pretty and the knock on the head made her see that she was, but her looks stayed the same, only the way she saw herself changed. The way she felt made others see her as pretty because she believed she was, and she was able to do things she had only ever dreamed of because she felt better about herself. To be honest, we do live in a world where we are unfortunately under so much pressure to look a certain way. There are so many reality stars look a certain way, so it makes people feel they have to look perfect to accepted. Now, I am older, well 30, I am old enough to not take much notice of things i see on TV or in mags, but younger people might not have grasped this, no wonder high anxiety disorders are very common. I have come to realise that the film is right. If you are positive, and feel good, everyone will be drawn to you. Yes, it is natural to judge someone on their looks when you meet them, but looks fade At first I see the outer layer of a person, but then gradually, their personaility takes over. I then only see the person they are on the inside. In my experience, I have in the paased, thought somone was good looking, then got to know them. If they were horrible I would start to see an ugly person and vice vera. Just like Amy's character she was full of convidence and others started to see her true inner self once they started getting to know her.

Miranda (2009–2015)

"such fun!!!"

[10/10 · 4 March 2019]

Il be honest I watched the first episode and though "Mmm not sure what I think of that?". Then I watched more and it just got better and better and I ended up loving it!! I think the more you watch the more you fall in love with Miranda's character. It is not funny in a offensive or disgusting way like many comedies these days. Our Tv's seem to be full of rubbish reality Tv, with people who have no talent and are obsessed with looks. This was a breath of fresh air for me to watch. The bit that makes it funny is the fact that many shows make the actors pretend the camera isn't there, but Miranda actually talks to the camera like you are actually standing next to her. She tells fibs to the actors to make herself look better, like we all do, but then turns to the camera and blurts the truth out like they are not able to hear her. An example of this is one the actors "Oh you have cake for breakfast? Do you have this often?" She replies with "Never". shaking her head. Then looks towards the camera and says "All the time". With a cheeky funny face. The program is based around a single 34 year old women and what she gets up to when she lives on her own. It isn't all based around her trying to find a man, yes some of it is, but it highlights all the silly things her and single friends do in secret like e.g. the game where is Miranda? and who can pop the most bubble wrap in one go. Yes she ends up with the love of her life, but it trying to say in so many words that beauty is what is on the inside. Miranda isn't the typical type of women you see on television , she is different looking, but the show takes that and runs with it, and mocks her size and flaws through out,so it is even funnier. However, Miranda has many love interests even though she isn't perfect looking because of her unusual personality. Personality wins every time. Maybe this message should be said to the younger generation who are pressured to look perfect. If there was more shows like Miranda, the world would be a better place. Such fun!!

The Hangover Part II (2011)

good for a "second film"

[8/10 · 27 February 2019]

I enjoyed this film. It had lots of funny jokes like the first one, but obviously it did't have the suprise factor like the fist one did. The plot was the same, being so hung over that you cant remember anything, and then having to find the missing friend, but for a film that was probably made purely for money purposes, i enjoyed it. All though, these days, they always have to "milk" a good things and produce a third film. Why not just leave something be and end on a high note?

Gavin & Stacey (2007–2024)

british comedy at its best!!!

[10/10 · 26 February 2019]

I watched gavin and stacey on net flixs only recently, and i regret not watching it when i was first aired. It is so clever and makes me laugh out loud. The actors are all excellent and it helps that two of the main characters are the ones that wrote gavin and stacey, they are very talented individuals and have moved on to more great things since gavin and stacey ended. The story is heart warming and not cheesey. It highlights real life struggles that people would have, during meeting the love of your life over the internet. What I love the most about gavin and stacey is that is was around at a time when programs were not made for just making money. There arent alot of episodes, but there was enough to keep your interest, and focus on the main story. They didn't make episodes just to drag the story out. You don't find comedy like this these days. It isnt funny in an obvious way, it is dry humor, which is far from what is considered as comedy now. Our screens seem to be full of uneducated people on reality TV, getting drunk and making a fool of themselves. I hope in the future more of this type of comedy is reborn, but im not going to hold my breath.

The Hangover (2009)

one of my favourite comedies

[10/10 · 26 February 2019]

I found this film very funny and in 2009 it was very different to any film i had seen in a while. I found myself laughing out loud at some of the jokes, so im glad i watched it at a mates house ha!! I still remember some of the famous quotes from the original film "so long g## boys" "hey!! she is a nice lady!!" "you gonna f###on me?" However, when something is good they tend to ruin it by making too much of a good thing to make money. I found the second one funny, but it didnt suprise me as much as the first one because they used the same scenario, having a such a hang over that you dont remember anything, and haveing a person missing that you have to find. The thrird one was funny but you could kind of tell that it was purely a film that had be created to make money rather than an originall film for veiwers enjoyment.

Disobedience (2017)

very "real"

[10/10 · 25 February 2019]

This film highlights the views that people still have today. Obviously the films is based mainly around the view of people with a very strong Jewish religion. However, I do not have a religion and my family are not religious, but I have still come across people with very "set" views on things, and that feel the need to "force" them on other people., with little regard for the other person. The seen where Ronit is sat at a table and the Jewish people "grill" her, even though her Father has just passed away. The words in this scene really hit home to me. The scene went something like this (obviously I have just written this in my words, it isn't exactly how the conversation goes) .

Bitter old women (I cant remember her name) "and you are not married, you need to find someone. It's not funny growing old alone, being married well.. that's the way it should be"

Ronit "Oh is it the way it should be? or is it just institutional obligation? I would marry whoever, then after 10 years of loveless marriage I would of killed myself, or at least felt like it".

I have learned that people who feel the need to tell people how to live there lives are usually people who are somewhat disappointed with the way theirs has gone.

The heart wants what the heart wants and marriage or children wont "cure" this. Like Esti says "I wanted her to come back. I wanted it to happen. Even when we were girls it was always the same. It has always been this way. I wanted it."

The sex scene was very realistic and almost felt "real". However, i didn't get the whole spitting in the mouth scene, but reading up about it, it seems that It could be one of two things. It could be them, in a way, mocking Jewish spitting, or it could be them doing what they used to do when they were teens. Spitting because they deemed it as sexual back then.

The ending is good. It ends on a cliff hanger, making you wonder what could have happened. Overall a very good film.

Women Who Kill (2013 TV Special)

Definitely worth watching

[8/10 · 23 February 2019]

To be honest this is probably the best of Amy shumer I have seen. Her jokes in this are actually funny and to be honest I have watched her live Netflix's stand up show and other videos containing her stand up comedy. I thought that she just was trying too hard when I watched these . However, in women who kill, she is more natural and the jokes are less offensive than some of her more brutal stand up comedy. The other women in the show are also very funny and produce great comedy material.

How to Be Single (2016)

Funny!!

[9/10 · 23 February 2019]

I really liked this film. Rebel Wilson makes the film in my opinion. I love the hidden meaning that you don't have to be with someone to be happy or to be "You". The film didn't end with a soppy happy ever after with a couple getting married like I predicted. It ends with someone realising that being single is a gift and should not be taken for granted.

Mock the Week (2005–2022)

very entertaining

[9/10 · 19 February 2019]

I found mock the week whilst searching for Frankie Boyle on you tube. I was pleasantly surprised when I clicked on "best bits" of mock the week. I assumed mock the week wouldn't be "My cup of tea", because for some reason, i remember that my Dad watched it ha!!, but i loved it. I liked how the show demonstrates creativity, the panelists have to create jokes around certain topics like education, the news etc. I did question if the comedians were able to prepare jokes for the show beforehand. I have read that they are able to this, but it sill requires great skill (in my eyes anyway ha!) to create multiple different jokes about many different subjects and memorize them, then present them in a funny way, without laughing. It highlights "real life issues" and tends to make a joke out of it, which we sometimes need. I'm not sure what is true, but i have read a number of things explaining why Frankie Boyle left the show. One bit of information I read was that he was "asked to leave" because he was deemed a "raciest comedian". The other source of information suggested that him and the other panelists were asked to "tone it down" because of the offense that the show was causing and he "walked out" because he didn't agree with this. Some people who have written reviews bellow say it is not as good as it once was because the panelist, are being "Too careful".To be honest I believe this is silly, The jokes are meant to be a bit offensive that is why they are funny. It is comedy at the end of the day. I don't think a lot of the jokes comedians say are actually what they believe . I cant think of a joke on mock the week I was offended by. However, I have found that some comedians take jokes too far. Amy schumer took things too far on "the roast". I would be offended if a close friend of mine just died, and a comedian, said whilst only standing a few feet away from me, that everyone wishes it was you that was dead!! Too far!! I don't like her personalty anyway and I think that joke proved why. Anyway, we need more shows like mock the week, instead if mind numbing reality shows that seem to be all over our screens these days :)

Katherine Ryan: In Trouble (2017 TV Special)

good stand up comedy

[10/10 · 18 February 2019]

Having watched your face or mine with Katherine Ryan, I find her very funny so decided to give her Netflix program a go. I first saw her standing next to Jimmy Carr on your face or mine, you could see Katherine Ryan was funny in a non offensive way, unlike Jimmy Carr who achieves laughs, by making fun of others on the show . Due to this, I thought her stand up comedy would be very funny and it was. Yes some could find her jokes slightly offensive, but most of them are based around her true life experiences, and not just picking someone out and laughing at them, as such. Obviously her jokes are very mild, unlike some comedians she has worked with in the past. Like Frankie Boyle, who is funny, but just pushes it too far. Katherine Ryan says things that could offend, then does a cheeky sweet girl smile and gets away with it :)

The Charlotte Show (2018–2019)

Ooo am I the first person to review this?

[8/10 · 15 February 2019]

I think the Charlotte show is enjoyable to watch. To be honest she is probably the best person to come out of Geordie shore. Yes she has her faults , but don't we all? Charlotte was always my favourite in Geordie shore because she was the most honest and probably the funniest. She actually has a naturally funny personality which is hard to find these days. Il be honest I wasn't sure about the show when I saw the advertisement for the first series, but I enjoyed the first series anyway and am really liking the second series. Charlotte is so honest and gives the viewers all of her, she is not fake at all. I like the fact she does stuff for charity and especially because she does things for animal charities. This isn't just to "look good" she has always said she liked animals even in her early Geordie shore days. When I first watched I was unsure about her choice of men ... referring to other idiots she unfortunately went out with, but josh seems to be smitten with Charlotte, she is still insecure about cheating, which isn't surprising, considering being treated so poorly, but she is not afraid to tell us this, which is why I like charlottte so much. The song she did after seeing a whale in the episode I watched yesterday, think it was season 2 ep 3/4 was so funny I laughed out loud ha! I have to say I'm glad Charlotte had been successful since leaving Geordie shore, but I can't say the same about Vicky Patterson. I watched her recent program that was originally supposed to be about her wedding that didn't go ahead because of her ex cheating on her. The program was hard to watch because she cried through most of it and her face is full of surgery that she can't cry properly. It is horrible that someone "did her wrong "like that, but I failed to feel anything for her, because she is vile, even though she pretends to be nice. However, I always feel sorry for Charlotte when she is upset because she is a lovely girl. Well done Charlotte, looking for ward to seeing more of you. Not that you will read this ha !!,

Below Her Mouth (2016)

Good sex scenes

[10/10 · 7 February 2019]

Ok so reading the reviews I started to question myself, but I Actually really liked this film. Yes,as stated below the main character Dallas is probably "Shane" from the L word and to be honest I didn't get why she would be able to get all these straight hot women like jasmine to sleep with her. I did find it weird that she wore a strap on a lot. I have never met Lesbian that does this. The script isn't the best, but I thought the sex scenes were really hot and the story line did intrigue me, but I'm easily pleased some would say . Maybe I don't know enough about films to write a "proper review"but I liked it.

Kidulthood (2006)

Quite shocking, but realistic.

[10/10 · 29 October 2018]

It pin points teen troubles in detail and they are put forward very well. The teen suicide is very upsetting, but does highlight what could happen to teens if the bulling is not dealt with. The girl who took her own life, Katie, was obviously being bullied. Her parents believed her silly excuses e.g. "I fell over. This was to cover up that she had been hit a school. The parents were too caught up in their own troubles e.g. the dad was too busy focusing on work stuff. This is quite common especially in today's society. If someone close to her knew and tried to do something, they could have saved her life. The way teens are per trade is in some ways correct, but maybe slightly exaggerated. This film was made in 2006 and I left school in 2005, I didn't have anyone quite so bad as the bullies in the film, at the school I went to. However, the film is based n a completely different area, and I live in a small town, so maybe there were teens as bad a s this in that sort of area. There were people with the same type of personality, for example there were some teens like Sam that everyone was afraid of, but not quite as bad as him. The acting in the film was very good; all actors played a brilliant part. Not all the characters were like able, most of them weren't, but they all did an excellent job of playing their characters. Sam, although he plays a horrible character, makes the film all piece together, most things events in the film are caused by him and his gang. Katie's suicide was caused by him and his mates, the fact that Tri and Alisa aren't talking is because of Sam suggesting he slept with Alisa ,which isn't true. The whole scene at the end is caused by Sam. He is out to get Tri and his friends because they snuck into his house to get the game boy he stole from Jay at school. They hurt is mum whilst doing this. The fact that Katie's brother turns up and fires a gun, is because Katie wrote in her note that she killed herself because Sam and his mates were bullying her. It also highlights other issues that teenagers often face and may struggle to overcome. The teenage pregnancy was one of the bigger stories in the film, issues of drugs and alcohol are highlighted very well in the film and are very common among teenagers today. Violence and the use of illegal weapons was also highlighted. Very good film, you should watch it!

Loving Annabelle (2006)

I love this film. It's one of the best lesbian films I have ever seen.

[10/10 · 21 September 2018]

There are a number of reasons why this film is one of my favorites:

1. I really liked the music featured in the film is very different. 2. The two main actresses had such good chemistry and it really showed on screen. 3. The love story gradually built up, making you gripped to the story line. At one point I thought they were not going to get together, so was glad when they eventually did. 4. I really sympathized with Simone's character, and could feel all her frustrations whilst watching the film. She was obviously really unhappy with the man she was with, and he was pressuring her to move in which she clearly didn't want to do. She was obviously very attracted to Annabel, but the fact that it was forbidden, was keeping her from acting on her feelings. Simone was also grieving the loss of her ex girlfriend, and I think the letter in the film indicates that she took her own life. This would obviously make matters even worse. 5. The two main characters are very likeable which makes you want them to get together. If Annabel's character was different I don't think that the film would have been as good. 6. The character of Annabel was played so well Erin Kelly that the Annabel could look at Simone and you could tell exactly what she was thinking. This was especially good during the scenes in the classroom, where Annabelle was looking at Simone really seductively. Simone could obviously sense this, and struggled to ignore it. 7. The other actors all played brilliant parts, and I can't say there was any bad acting in the film. Even though I disliked Catherine's character ,she added a lot to the story line. She eventually was the one who got Annabelle and Simone in trouble. I suppose every film has to have a villain. 8. The kissing scene was done so brilliantly. It's one of my favorite kissing scenes. The rain poring around them, and the way Simone tries to walk away from Annabelle one last time, but Annabelle Grabs her hand, and she can no longer resist her. 9. The sex scene is done so well and is very believable. It is so sexy, and the music in the back ground hugely adds to It. Both actresses were obviously very comfortable with the scene, and a managed to make it just right. 10. The ending is sad, but I think it is right for the film. I have seen an alternative ending ,but it didn't have the same effect as the ending that was chosen. I think the ending says that love over rides all. They loved each other and were willing to take a risk. Love Is not always a happy ending.
