Ahh, I had plans to see it on Sat night with my mum and sister but then the plan fell through… HOWEVER, being 2nd to last screening, I’m going to see it tomorrow night! And that review just made me mooore intrigued :)

I saw this movie recently; I honestly thought I was going to be disappointed but I ended up loving it.

I also thought one of the best parts of the movie was the relationship between Natalie and Ryan. I also loved George Clooney as Ryan.

I really enjoyed Anna Kendrick’s performance (I actually think she was nominated for an Oscar), and I had no idea that she was in Twilight (not that I keep track of the stars of those movies at all).

Obviously our movie timing is perfect, therefore the telepathically linked portions of our brain are far more awesome than the rest of our brains ;)

I saw a preview screening of Up in the Air before it was released way back in November. I really liked the movie and how it “stayed” with you after watching it. It’s kind of like how it was with Slumdog Millionaire – the more hype you hear about it, the greater your expectations are, and sky-high expectations can never be met.

This surprised me. I thought it would be really bad. I might have to see it.

Once again, we’re on the same movie brainwave, because I watched this yesterday! This is becoming scary! The movie selection part of our brains must be telepathically linked!

I wasn’t quite as impressed with this movie as I was hoping to be. I liked it, but I expected to love it. On my scale of 1-10, I give it a 6.5-7. I really liked Anna Kendrick in this though. I only saw the first Twilight movie, and I don’t really remember it at all (blocked it out :P), so I can’t really compare her to that, but I liked her a lot in this movie. :) I wouldn’t say it’s Oscar worthy or anything, but she did well.

Ok, then it was Jessica. :D I think she wasn’t annoying in the books?

Anna Kendrick plays Jess in Twilight, one of Bella’s friends at Forks. Jess is pretty much jealous of Bella and is only really her “friend” if she’s put in a better light than Bella. An amusing character, but one that lacks depth, just like everyone else in Twilight. And I’m not sure there is a character in Twilight who isn’t annoying :P
