Review

Ella enchanted is a fill good movie that all the family can sit down and enjoy. There are places where you can tell that they CGI as they are not amazing, but in all fairness for a 2004 film where some CGI techniques was still new. So I guess for that year it was about average.

The overall story line was lovely about understanding how lucky we are to be able to choose in what wrong and right as there are some people in the world who not as free in doing what they want to do.

It about listening to your heart, as there are times where your heart might say something stupid but in reality you know in your mind that your heart is right.

Overall I give this film a 4/5 stars.

 W. Downs. It stars Scarlett Johansson, Zoë Kravits, Jillian Bell and Ilain Glazer, and follows a bachelorette party that goes wrong after a male stripper dies.

Review:

When I watched this I didn't know what to expect, because I didn't see the trailers, nor see any of the reviews. So I didn't know what it was about. I thought that I might enjoy it as it has some well known actresses. 

I was truly enjoy it, even though it was kinda of dark in topic, it was funny, and that something, as it not like me to enjoy comedy. 

It was surprising how Lucia and Paul manager to create a comedy film about some people accidentally killing somebody, and then basically becoming heroes. 

However I have to give it a warning it contains, strong language, sex reference, and drug misuse.

Review:

I seen quite a few version of this classic Disney story, some of which are more Grimm then other. So in a way I am so thankful that this isn't grim. I really enjoy this version as it shows the relationship between the Prince and his father. I really enjoyed seeing that because we always forces on Cinderella family relationship. With watching a few other version of the story made me realise that even though it well put together, doesn't bring anything new to the table. It was like watching the animation but live action instead. 

Stars.
