Chicago was the best picture winner in 2002. It also won the best supporting actress, direction-set decoration, costume design, film editing, and sound. The film was also nominated for seven different awards, that it didn’t win. Most musicals these days don’t get this kind of recognition no matter who is in the cast and how … More Chicago (2002)
Johnny Depp has played a handful of memorable characters in film history, with Sweeny Todd being one of them. I can openly admit I have only enjoyed watching Depp in a handful of roles and really can’t stand his more iconic ones, like Jack Sparrow. Much to the surprise of my wife, I had never … More Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (2007)
If you go to IMDb, you will notice that Into the Woods was nominated for three Oscars. Meryl Streep accounts for one of those nominations since any role she’s cast in gets an automatic nod. The other two were production and costume design, the only thing this movie had going for it. We all know … More Into the Woods (2014)
I want to think that any movie with a hashtag symbol in the title would be garbage. So far, I’m 100% on that assumption. Bring It On: Worldwide #Cheersmack has to be one of the worse movies I’ve ever watched. It was a home media release that tried to blend reality TV with cheerleading. It … More Bring It On: Worldwide #Cheersmack (2017)
My wife enjoys watching the Bring It On movies. Even I would admit that the first one (2000) was a pretty fun movie. What I couldn’t accept is how watered down the stories and characters have become all these years later. Bring It On Fight to the Finish is the fifth installment of the franchise. … More Bring It On: Fight to the Finish (2009)
A Cinderella Story continues to make Disney money, so every few years, they cast a bunch of young adults and fire up the old pumpkin coach. Now that Disney has it’s own platform to release any content they want, I would not be surprised to see another Cinderella Story someday. For the time being, I … More A Cinderella Story: Christmas Wish (2019)
If you have been following my trek through the Cinderella Story franchise, you will come to know that I really enjoyed the first three entries, rating them 8/10, 7/10, and 7/10 in that order. When we sat down to watch If the Shoe Fits, I was wondering if the series could keep up the momentum. … More A Cinderella Story: If the Shoe Fits (2016)
If you knew me back in the day, I had a big crush on Hilary Duff (can’t deny it). I even own A Cinderella Story, where she is the star. Fast forward many years later, and I find out my wife also loves the Cinderella Story franchise. Since I am all about making lists and … More Another Cinderella Story (2008)
Whenever I get asked who my least favourite actresses are, Katherine Heigl is right there at the top. I can’t stand her acting and definitely don’t watch The Ugly Truth because she’s in it. The main reason why any guy would ever want to watch this romantic comedy is because of Mike Chadway, played by … More The Ugly Truth (2009)
When in Rome is another romantic comedy with two stars in the lead roles. Josh Duhamel and Kristen Bell meet in Rome at a wedding, only to bring their romance back to New York City, where fate has a different plan for the two. This film is funny, to a point. I like how crazy … More When in Rome (2010)
