The Perks of Being a Wallflower movie

My Rating: 5 stars I have been waiting for about two and a half years – ever since I first read the book. I was actually quite nervous about how everything would turn out. The Perks of Being a Wallflower holds a special place in my heart, and I don’t think I could handle it […]

The Perks of Being a Wallflower Official Trailer

The Perks of Being a Wallflower first official trailer premiered last night during the MTV Movie Awards pre-show. I have been waiting so long to see this. The Perks of Being a Wallflower is one of my all-time favorite novels and I know it is so important to not only me, but millions of other […]

Deathly Hallows Part 2, Round 2

After seeing Deathly Hallows Part 2 again, I realized really now much of the ending of the movie was changed. Really, the whole timeline of events was altered. All the events leading up to the big moment (when Harry finally defeats Voldemort) were totally different than what happened in the book. After Harry is “killed” […]

Beastly

My rating: 2 stars I started this movie thinking of the book and how much I loved it. To my disappointment, the movie wasn’t I would have expected it to be. First of all, Kyle, the main character, wasn’t even turned into a hairy beast, like in the book. He was transformed into a weirdly […]

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2

My Rating: 5 stars Okay, here we go. I had been waiting for the moment I’d see this movie for four years. I was lucky enough to see it at midnight, and I couldn’t believe it was happening. I got to see the movie in 3D, and it was my first time seeing a movie […]

Shutter Island

My Rating: 4 stars My mom had read this book and seen the movie a while ago and I was in the mood for some Leonardo DiCaprio, so I decided to watch this today. Basically, Leonardo DiCaprio plays a U.S. marshal named Teddy Daniels and his partner, Chuck Aule, who are both U.S. marshals go […]

To Kill a Mockingbird

My Rating: 5 stars I don’t think I can describe how much I loved watching this movie. I got to watch it in school, and I feel like some of the kids didn’t enjoy the movie as much as I did. The movie was almost exactly like the book, but with few plot changes to […]

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1

My Rating: 5 stars I have been waiting three years for this movie, even though it is only half of the whole. But let me tell you, it was definitely worth the wait. My friends and I all went to the midnight showing of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1. We were ready […]

A Very Potter Sequel!

My Rating: 5 stars Harry Potter and all of his friends are back in this amazing musical based off of the Harry Potter books. But this time, things are switched around. Lucius Malfoy and all of the Death Eaters are plotting against Harry Potter because he got rid of Lord Voldemort for good. And how […]

The Lightning Theif Movie

My Rating: 2-3 stars Where do I start on this movie? I cannot believe Chris Columbus, who directed Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, directed this movie. I am so surprised. I first saw this movie without reading the book, and I thought it was pretty good. But now that I’ve read the book, I […]
