One sentence movie reviews

Recently, I've been watching quite a lot of movies with my flatmate. I'm usually not very good with films that I don't know and tend to be very fussy and can't be bothered with a lot of genres and story lines. But that does mean that I am capable of summing up my thoughts of a film in one sentence, and due to the fact of watching so many (well, a lot for me), I thought I may as well make a blog post out of it.

Big Hero 6- Has to be the coolest cartoon of all time, with a loveable robot and a Fall Out Boy song

Inside Out- (a previous post) An excellent concept that keeps you engaged

The Spectacular Now- (a previous post) Believable and such a sweet story

The Breakfast Club- (a previous post) Excellent script that would work really well in a play. Only thing I don't agree on was the ending.

Ghost- (referred in a previous post) Corny and probably quite bad, but still my all time favourite film

7 Pounds- First half of film I was like "what on earth am I watching". Second half of film I was like "Ohmygosh! This is amazing!" A must see.

Catch Me If You Can- Was pretty good and for that genre, was well written with fantastic acting.

Flashdance- I was surprised, but it was really enjoyable and I felt like I was so unhealthy compared to the lead

Footloose (old and new)- Old one is seen as a classic and fair enough, but I personally liked the new better because I thought the story was more developed and preferred the lead guys performance in it

Saturday Night Fever- Shocking film and was so unsatisfied with the story and ending. Don't waste your time with it.

Grease- What's not to love? One of the greatest musical films ever that you have to sing along to with your friends

Blue is the Warmest Colour- Overrated and very very very very long and 2D characters that should have had more development

LOL- (the French version) Enjoyable and really well acted

What We Did On Our Holiday- Was hilarious with its black humour that British scriptwriters have perfected to an art form

Bright Young Things- Probably not everyone's taste, but I absolutely love it- the era and it's young socialites. Sort of like a 1930's version of 'Skins'

Killing Bono- Dark comedy and drama- it was a fantastic film that I really enjoyed and didn't realise until the end, that it was based on a true story

Big Hero 6
