What a "Hugo" Disappointment!
Wow, time sure flies! I can't believe it's been so long since I last posted. I apologize to all you Jamie Club fans. It's a little difficult as I also write for another blog. So I welcome any of the other Jamie Club members to post messages....
So I wasn't sure what the movie was about. I knew it was a Martin Scorsese movie. Also, a boy who lives in a clock? Well, I wasn't too impressed with the parts I saw in between naps. I wasn't drawn into the movie. I thought the characters were too contrived. Don't get me wrong, the little boy was cute and played the part well. But I'm not into whimsical and storylines too far-fetched to believe. Anyone see Tree of Life??? A Terrence Malick movie. What's happened to these renowned directors?
Suffice to say, not getting my nod for Best Picture. Sorry, Maryann, coordinator this month. Hey, you'll have a chance with the snooze and WTF categories!
Alas, my weekend was not totally ruined. I saw the Vow last night. It was a movie based on true events. I loved it, and not just because of Channing's butt shot. It was about relationships, sacrifices, second chances, and loving someone enough to let go. What more can you ask for in a movie? Just my opinion...
