I have decided to just write about a few films from a couple of the genres to write about. I hope there are a few you may not have seen or heard of. I hope you enjoy!
The girl who leapt through time.
This is an anime film, and is one of my favourites. It is about a girl that is rather clumsy. She finds out that she has the ability to leap through time and starts using it to her advantage, soon to discover that it can lead to not exactly great results. It is directed by Mamoru Hosoda that is most known for the Digimon movies (Which he shouldn't be as this film is by far better than Digimon ). The main reasons I like this film are the script is entertaining and you can really connect with the main character. Also it is very pretty, and simplistic which I do like in anime, the style of it does remind me a little of Castle in the sky ( which is also a very good anime if you haven't seen it give it ago ) with its pale colouring in places and simple but effective back grounds. Of course like any time travel movie you can find faults in it but if you can put that to one side I am sure you will love this movie.
Chocolate
So as you probably see from the DVD cover this isn't the Johnny Depp movie. This is a martial arts movie about an autistic girl that tries to help her dying mother by finding the people that owe her money and of course they turn out to be gang members. As i tend to find with martial arts movies the story behind the action is not always the best ever but this does have its heart warming and heart breaking moments. But like all martial arts films you watch them for the kick arse moves and this film doesn't let you down. Jeeja Yanin that plays Zen the lead character is amazing for such a young girl. And of course she does all her own stunts which lead to awesome but very cringe and painful mess ups. Jeeja has some awesome skills like a trick she does with candy that look like m n m's that I have been trying to copy ever since ( watch the movie to find out what I mean) So yeah if you like martial arts and watching people kick the crap out of each other or even if you girl out there want to watch some real girl power then check this movie out.
Easy A
Emma Stone starring in Easy A and romance comedy about a girl that makes up a lie about sleeping with a guy in community college that soon blows out of per-portion. Loosely based on The scarlet letter by Nathaniel Hawthorn. I find that some romance comedies are full of obvious love story all the way through and it get rather tedious. That is one thing i like about this movie it isn't rubbing the love story in your face all the way through, granted it has small hints occasionally but nothing to much. It is a good film to watch if you just want to chill out in front of the tv, or if you are having a girls night in. And don't worry boys it can be enjoyed by you too, as Emma Stone is wearing very sexy clothing through out just make sure you don't get done my your girl friends as she does look stunning. But not only with the way she is dressed it is also funny and a film i really do think can be enjoyed by both men and women.
Clerks
This is a Comedy and the first ever film by Kevin Smith. It came out in 1994 and is in black and white. ( yes that is correct black and white) The reason being that in order to make he movie Kevin Smith had to sell his entire comic book collection and max out 8- 10 credit cards. So due to little funds couldn't afford a high tech colour video camera. If you are one of these people that dont particularly like black and white movie I can safely say that i have shown people like that this movie and they have still loved it just as much as me. So please don't let that stop you from giving this movie ago. This movie isn't action packed it is literately about a 2 guys that work in a convenience store one of which "isn't suppose to be their today" but it is laugh out loud funny and the script is very very well written. With great acting from Brain O' Halloran and Jeff Anderson and not to mention the first appearance of the very memorable Jay and Silent Bob. I assure you that if you haven't seen this movie you will very much enjoy it.
So there you have it there are a few movies that i think that you will enjoy :)
watch this space and see you all very soon.
