review no. 1

Danny and I are a little obsessed with movies. We don't have any cable, or any channels at all for that matter. So we spend our spare time watching movies. We like comedies and romance and independent films and, our newfound love, suspense. We have NetFlix which means we get to watch about 2 movies per week. Well, I want to tell you about them. Because there's nothing worse than waiting expectantly for a movie only to be annoyed or lulled to sleep. So, first up: Paper Heart.
I waited a very long time to watch this movie. Was it worth it? Yes yes yes and yes. We give this movie 4.5 stars. Awkward humor just gets us every time, and this movie is loaded with it. I squalled in discomfort many a time- it was fantastic. The girl in the movie, Charlyne Yi, was as charming as ever. I'd like to be her friend and listen to her laugh all day. And Michael Cera, he is wonderful too. He plays the same role in every movie, but why stray from what works?

So why the -.5? The ending seemed a bit rushed...it reminded me of when I am super hungry and have the heat set on high when I'm cooking my scambled eggs. They're still great eggs, but not as good and light and fluffy as they could be. So it was with the ending of Paper Heart.

If you watch this movie you'll laugh a lot. I promise.

Next up: Run, FatBoy, Run
