12 Riveting Movie Reviews

1. Finding Nemo

ONE STAR

Couldn't really figure out who Nemo is? Title is misleading. Thought the dentist character should've played more of an essential role.

2. The Notebook

1/2 STAR

Thought this was going to be about a library??? It's not. I watched 27 minutes then turned it off because I wanted some action.

3. 127 Hours

NEGATIVE 127 STARS

Haven't even seen the movie cuz I'm not about to waste 127 freaking hours of my life what the heck is wrong with people why are people wasting their whole lives trying to watch this are people literally just sitting there for 120+ hours watching a movie don't they have to go to the bathroom????

4. Les Miserables (the non-musical version with Liam Neeson)

3 POTATOES

(This is real life) Alright so here I am, trying to watch this supposed "amazing"musical because I have to keep up with the current times and I want to see what all the hubbub is about. So I'm at the 30min mark and no singing. I silently thank God because I'm not really a fan of these types of musicals but still what the heck. I approach the 60min mark and still no singing. I repeat, still no singing. Slightly suspicious but not enough to do anything about it, people have to pop out and start singing any moment now. Liam Neeson is in this which is unexpected, but alright, didn't know he could sing. I hit the 90min mark and finally give up on the singing. I stop the movie, look it up, and realize that I am watching the NON-MUSICAL version of Les Miserables. It is not a musical. I shake my head, say "oh what the hell" under my breath and finish the movie. All in all, it was actually a pretty good version.

5. Valkyrie

7 RUBBER BANDS

Basically the same thing happened like Les Mis. Here my family is, waiting for Tom Cruise to appear on screen and freaking kill it. Over an hour in, we're still wondering where the elusive Tom Cruise could be and if there could be two main characters with eye patches? We held out hope til the end.

6. New Girl (the show)

2 MAGIC ERASERS

Title is misleading because after the first episode, Jessica Day is no longer "new". Am I the only one who noticed this?? Major plot flaw???

7. She's the Man

12 LIP SMACKERS CHAPSTICKS

I couldn't get past the idea of "the man." Who exactly is the man? Why is it THE man? Does anyone really know? They didn't explain it in the film. You know when you "stick it to the man," who is that man??? Is it the same man that they refer to in this movie? I can't be the only one thinking this.

8. (500) Days of Summer

3 1/2 PEACHES

Not really sure how many days there are in summer but that seems like a lot.

9. Twilight

47 STARS

A lot seems to be happening in the daylight if you ask me... alright that one was bad.

10. How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days

4 HANGNAILS

I bought this accidentally reading it as "how to lose 10 pounds in a day". Not a very good weight loss program.

11. The Princess Bride

0.5 STAR

It's alright.

12. Rocky

4 DROPS OF SWEAT

I was left feeling...uninspired. Not sure if Sylvester Stallone was right for the part. I thought Adrian really stole the show and Rocky was just a mere afterthought with his small amount of screen time.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
