Bravetown
It took me a while to figure out why the kid looked so familiar. Then BAM! He’s in the Hannah Montana movie. Obviously. In other news, I have no idea what genre this is supposed to be. It might be a teen dance movie. It might be trying [very hard but not so successfully] to be…

Dumb and Dumber To
It was certainly dumber. The first was great because it was original. This one tried a little too hard to live up to that.

Odd Thomas
I can’t remember the last time I was so caught off guard by a movie like this. Maybe I was paying too much attention to how adorable Anton Yelchin is… So what if I was? I paid enough attention to know that I liked it.

This is what’s known as creative license

Fifty Shades of Grey
Perfect movie for Galentines with my single ladies. A few things I said out loud: “What?”, “Seriously?”, “I miss Jamie Dornan’s beard”, “Oh my God!”, “Oh”, “Ohhhhhh”, “HAHAH!”, “This should have been marketed as a comedy”, “Calm down, Ana”, “Creeper”, “Ew”, “Did he just say that?”, “NOPE”, “You’re fifty shades of what now?” I liked…

Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone by J.K. Rowling
I should have read these years ago. Phenomenal. I wish I’d bought the boxed set. Also, how great is the new Bloomsbury design?! No. 20 on my challenge. Everyone has read the first Harry Potter. And obviously, the movies are awesome.
