My Week With Marilyn - Movie Review

My Week With Marilyn- Movie Review

For me there isn't a ton to say about this movie. I thought it was pretty good. It really portrayed Marilyn's life. Everyone used her. They druged her up used her for her fame. She had a really horrible childhood and just wanted someone to love her. It was really sad in many ways. I thought Michelle Willams was great in it. I would love to read the book and learn more about her life.

The Hunger Games Movie -Review (Amazing)



The Hunger Games Movie -Review (Amazing)

I did read the book before seeing the movie which does make my understanding of it a lot better. I actually read it twice so that I could remember all the tributes names.

I felt that the movie was a pretty good interpretation of the book, there were some changes that I didn't like but we will get to that.

What I liked-
  • I loved how the scene of Peeta giving Katniss the bread was spread out I don't know why but I thought how they unveiled it was good.
  • I also liked how Katniss bought the pin and gave it to her sister it brought a little more depth and meaning to it.
  • The visuals were really stunning especially the capitol. I loved the girl on fire dress I was afraid it wasn't going to be done well but it was perfect!
  • Cinna was simply amazing that is all I have to say.
  • The cornucopia was cool I pictured a giant golden cornucopia unrealistic lol but this made more sense.     
What I didn't like-
  • They didn't explain the mocking jay. How it refereed to the rebellion and really mocked the capitol.
  • Peeta lost his leg at the end of the book from the games and it really impacts Catching Fire, I know that is a weird thing to find wrong, okay I have problems but he needed to loose a leg.
  • Katniss straight out tells him it was all an act that she didn't love him (She kinda did though) That is how the book ends which makes you want to read the sequel so bad to see how they move on.
  • They didn't talk about Avox's which was talked a lot about because that is what happens to the traitors. Which at the end becomes a fear of Katniss' also her and Gale see them in the beginning.
  • Also they never mentioned the 13th district which is foreshadowing!
I loved this book and movie. If you only saw the movie and didn't read the book go read it and the sequel Catching Fire.

FanFiction

Fanfiction

Now for those of you who have never heard of fanfiction here is what it is: sites that have stories dedicated to the characters we love from movies, tv shows, and books that we just can't get enough of. Do you ever hate when you watch a movie and there is a cliff hanger but no sequel than wriet fanfiction to tell what you think should have happened. Or if a show gets canceled go a head and finish the plot the way you thought it was going to go. Put your two favorite characters together. Change things like if in New Moon maybe you think it would be better if Edward never came back to she was much older. Or just change the whole thing but keep the likeness of the charcters, Damon Katherine Stefan and Elena go to Vegas by the end of the trip who end up with who!

The point is that it is all up to you sometimes as a writer my self it is hard to create a plot you love but as a writer you are always thinking what if. And even if you love to read there are some amazing stories out there just waiting to be read.
**If you want to read something I wrote I am on fanfiction.net as superfrog101 they aren't that great though**

The Vow- Movie Review (Loved it)

I went to see this movie a couple weeks ago way past Valentines Day and I actually enjoyed it. I liked that it wasn't just a chick flick there was actual drama and comedy in it that made it good. Channing Tatum and Rachel McAdams are both great actors who really brought the story to life and made you sympathize with the characters. The movies is based on true events which I found to be very cool. At certain times I thought McAdam's character was bitchy for not accepting the life she lived but I loved how even though she never really recovered her memory she still lived her life the way she was meant to be.
It was a pretty good movie that I recommend to see it wasn't just a couples movie I went to see it with two of my best friends! Shout out to Sam and Justine lol we got frozen yogurt before it! I was so full I didn't get popcorn this is crazy!
