Enchanted was a totally Cinderella story, until the end. It was a good modern day fairy tale, and I ended up really liking it a lot. I thought that it would be a little fake at first, but still wanted to watch it. It turned out really great, and …
Doomsday
10,000BC is currently where I draw the line for horrible contemporary cinema and while the quality of Doomsday doesn’t fall quite so far, it’s perhaps in a similar ballpark. Personally I hate both parks and balls but I use this analogy with the intention of making it clear …

The storyline …
November Man (thriller movie)
The trailer for November Man didn’t make it come off as something that I would want to see in the theatres. For some reason, it just felt as if the movie wouldn’t be very good. However, when I watched it, even though I didn’t think it was great, it was …

500 Days of Summer movie
First of all, an admission. I had not heard anything about this film and would normally not see a romcom at the cinema. I only went because there was a free preview showing through Guardian Soulmates (strangely apt to see a romcom about failed relationships as a dating event). …
