Nicholas Nickleby

Ever heard of that? I hadn't, not till a week ago. But oh my goodness, is this movie amazing! Rated PG and around 2 hours long, with romance, tragedy, and much more. Nicholas Nickleby, a kind, gendle-hearted young man has just lost his father, and must travel to London with his mother and sister in search of something to do. It doesn't have to pay much, just enough for them to use for food and shelter. Nicholas is sent away to be a school teacher, and his sister becomes a seamstress. And they live happily ever after. Not. No, it does not end this way. Their private world of secluded, England country beauty is no more. They must learn to survive in a cruel world. I am totally in love with this movie. I'm not gonna give anything away, for you should see it yourself if you have not already. =) Anne Hathaway is in this movie, btw. =) =D It has some scenes which you may not want young children watching, but is clean all the way through, with perhaps a couple words. (I think...) Although we actually have a movie cleaner, which skips words and scenes we want it to skip, so it may have done so without me knowing (??). But I really <3 this movie. 5 star! =)

2012

I am sure you have heard of this movie. Actually, who has not heard of this movie? I have no idea. But anyways, we waited till it was out to see it. And yes, we (my fam and I) wanted to see this movie. Not be cause 'we support the world ending in 2012', (which we don't) but because it looked like a really good action-filled, thrilling movie. So we did just the other day. Although it is almost three hours long, it did not fail to keep us almost to the edge of our seats the entire way through. Seriously. They did an amazing job on the computer generated animations (which basically filled every scene lol =D), and they also did an amazing job on putting everything together nicely. It really was a good movie, but not something I enjoyed watching. All those deaths, merciless deaths that happened at every corner, were just too much for me to find enjoyable. haha Not that I like watching people die, but still...Watching all those people die by falling off of the earth's crust into burning lava or being smashed by giant waves was not too wonderful. xd I just know that I do not plan on watching that movie in the next few years, but I did think it was great anyways. =D haha
