Rent this

I am not normally a woman that sees the movie the day it comes out. Usually, I don't even see movies in the theater, except for special movies or special occasions. Most of the time I am a rental kinda girl. My own cozy house, comfortable clothes and whatever munchies look appealing, kind of movie rental girl. (just ask my bff, redbox) But I am finding it increasingly difficult to find movies that are rated PG-13 or less. I mean really! Is it really too much to ask for a movie to have a plot that sounds interesting and keep the violence/sex/language toned down enough to earn it less than an R rating?

Movies I have seen recently(ish):

"Up" ~ Way cute, a pixar movie with a story that adults can appreciate too, but I swear I was crying ten minutes into the film. And one of my friends said that the old man in looks like my dad, which is rather funny...

"New Moon" ~ Yes I have read the books, no I am not a "twi-hard", yes I appreciate a shirtless gorgeous wolf guy, and no I don't think that she should have picked Edward. A good film, nonetheless...

"Sherlock Holmes" ~ The two leading men in this film had me laughing all the way through. I liked it, action with some comedy to lighten up the (dreary) London setting. I liked how quirky the characters were.

"Ghosts of Girlfriends Past" ~ Normally I am all about Mr. McConaughey and his rippling abdominals, but this movie was lame. I found myself struggling to maintain my interest and wondering when it would get to the good part, which it never did.

"The Soloist" ~ This one was good, a human interest story that was comical a few times, but mostly poignant. Really makes you feel for the guy you see sleeping on the street.

"Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince" ~ I am interested in seeing these movies through to the end. This one was much darker than the first two but I do enjoy the storyline more.

"Terminator Salvation" ~ Yeah, fell asleep during this one. I do like terminator movies, don't get me wrong, but this just didn't quite hit the interest button.

"The Proposal" ~ Really like Sandra Bullock. Really do. This made me laugh so freaking hard I can't believe it. It is pretty risque though and I thought was a little inappropriate for a PG 13.

"Carriers" ~ Scary, apocalyptic disease storyline, I liked most of it, but the end was dumb. Really made me think though.

"The Maiden Heist" ~ Funny, but dumb. I liked the storyline, but the characters were a little too creepy when they were supposed to be quirky.

"My Sister's Keeper" ~ Cried my freak'in eyes out. I read the book about a year ago and really liked it, but I need to point out that the movie has a totally different ending than the book.



Movie I want to see? Alice and Wonderland. Burton plus Depp. Yes please.
