catching up on flicks

as you probably know, i have a bit of an obsession with movies. i love watching them. i'd say i probably watch 3 a week. i know...a little extreme, but there's something about immersing yourself in a story that i really dig. anywhoo, i wanted to give a little recap of some good (and bad) movies i've seen this month. let's start with the good...

i thought this movie was amazing. i was actually hesitant to watch it because i heard it was pretty similar to the fighter (which i was not a huge fan of). but this movie was great - a definitely feel gooder, with some obvious action. highly recommend.

this flick isn't for everyone...i happen to love sports, so i really enjoyed it, but a couple of my girlfriends were bored out of their mind after seeing it. if you like sports, it's a really great story. and bonus, it's true.

adorable. i loved it. i laughed, i cried. i have a soft spot for animals, so this was right up my alley. such a touching story.

i thought it was pretty good! i love george clooney, so i've wanted to see this one for a while. not a whole lot happened and i was expecting more of a thriller than what it actually was, but i was pretty impressed overall.

call me crazy, but i wasn't very impressed. maybe i was let down because it was really hyped up, but where were the action scenes? i really don't know a single person who didn't like this movie, which is why trey and i were so confused after we watched it. i'll tell you what i did like...ryan gosling's face.

terrible. i honestly would have turned it off, but i was really in the mood for a good chick flick and kept hoping it would get better, but it just...did not. i got punk'd. i laughed out loud maybe once or twice. skip this one.

have you seen anything amazing lately?
