« No more essays for the week! | Main | Enlightened Blood - the Movie »

2 movies down, 2 more to go... and that's just for today. Full reviews later, I only have ten minutes until the next one.

The Metrosexual was... disappointing. Not that funny, not that metrosexual. Maybe I would have liked it better if it was advertised not as "Metrosexual" but just as "sad loser with no interpersonal skills". But it wasn't awful.

Young Single and Angry was pretty funny. There were a couple problems here and there, and mostly I was just cranky about these four people who were angry that they weren't married, and that they were actually buying into the 1970's ideal that the main character remembered from her childhood. But... they fixed it in the end, so that gave it about 100 more points in the last 2 minutes of the movie. I recommend it, but only as "a Cinequest movie", meaning it's not 100% perfect.

Full reviews of all today's movies tomorrow.
Now I'm off to Glory Boy Days and then Speed Dating.

Get info on these movies by visiting the Cinequest site.

The Hotel Montgomery is going above and beyond what is required to make things up to me from last week. I'll definitely have to recommend them again if all goes well through the weekend. Honestly, I'm not high maintenance, I just want the keys to my own room and not get a wake up call at 5am insisting that I had ordered a taxi. But so far, so good, so if you need a room downtown tonight - Come on over to the Montgomery!

And the best part of this weekend is that I have NO PAPERS TO WRITE. It's really really nice to not feel pressure to bring my laptop and type papers up in the theater. I just have to read some things over the weekend, and I can do that no problem. It's been a tough ten days watching movies AND dealing with school (AND real life) so it's really really nice to just sit back and watch movies without worrying about anything.

See ya at the movies!
