Wristcutters: A Love Story (2006)
Roadtrip meets black comedy meets love story
This is one of the best movies I've seen in a while! It's also one of the funniest movies I've seen recently.
The beginning definitely sets you up for the action to come and adds shock value. The first half hour or so was hilarious, filled with nice little humorous tidbits. Then it launches into the whole road trip scheme and focuses a lot more on the characters' emotional journey.
What's also neat for anyone who's spent a lot of time in Los Angeles and the valley is that you can recognize most of the scenery. This brings the plot into our world a little and makes it sort of familiar. The characters bring you along with them on their journey.
Patrick Fugit was fantastic in his role, as were all of the other actors. There were even a few surprise castings that had the audience roaring with laughter and cheering towards the end of the film.
This is truly a character-driven film of the type that you don't find much anymore. You won't regret any minute of it!
Real Women Have Curves (2002)
Smart & Funny movie
Wow! This was such a great movie; it managed to be both funny and intelligent at the same time. It is also able to deal with both humorous matters and serious issues, without making either seem unimportant.
America Ferrera brought such charisma and energy to the part of Ana, as well as honesty. I appreciate what she has done for both minority and larger-figured women by being in this movie.
However, when it comes down to it, this movie isn't about size or shape. "Real Women Have Curves" is about accepting who we are and embracing it. To see a movie with such a simple, real theme in this day and age is quite refreshing!
Happy Accidents (2000)
This movie is NOT an accident!
Wow! This movie totally involves you with the characters and the plot! My friend and I went to see it at our local Indy theater and ended up going to see it once more, because we couldn't get enough of it!
The chemistry between Vincent D'Onofrio and Marisa Tomei was dazzling. Sam's story was completely believable, and the twist at the end of the movie was completely unexpected! An absolutely stunning film, in all its simplicity.
