movies:


prime.
i had very low expectations going into this movie. but i fell, i fell hard. bryan greenberg is not only pretty to look at, but also is very charming and funny. his wit and timing drew me in and actually made me care what happened to his character. uma was icy, cold uma, which is what she does best. and meryl streep was funny, and very convincing as the way too involved mother. it was a realistic love story, free of the cookie cutter lifetime movie of the week conclusion. and it worked.



just friends.
i knew that i would like this movie. i just had no idea that i would laugh so hard while watching it. anna faris steals every single scene that she's in. ruby from felicity, also know as amy smart is as adorable as ever. and ryan reynolds knows how to do comedy. his timing and delivery never disappoints. i guess it was all the experience he got on fifteen playing billy the alcoholic. this is the kind of movie that you want to watch again immediately after it's over. i'll probably pick it up the next time i'm out shopping, it's just that good.

tv:



free ride.
it was pretty funny. it's only on the air because of arrested development. it copies the same awkward and quick paced humor that AD had, that the average viewer just doesn't get. it's my second pick on the list of shows i wanted to check out on fox. i have a feeling i'll like the loop a lot more. it was quirky and strange, with off-beat humor. i can see myself really starting to fall hard for it by episode four. and since it is on FOX, i expect to see it cancelled by episode five.
