Magic Mike (2012)

Hey!

After God knows how long, I went to my local cinema. To see what? Magic Mike.

I know some people will think that every girl wants to see this film just because there are a few guys almost every second half naked. Well, that's true. I probably am one of them. But If I'm being honest, I watched it because Alex Pettyfer was there. Oh, Alex Pettyfer and Matt Bomer, obviously, even though I like Alex a little bit better because he's british. Sorry, Matt :S

I enjoy watching this not just because they're all good looking but it's fun and was perfect to pass my late afternoon. But the end... The end was a disappointing. It feels like they just cut it in the middle. I think it left too many things open but since Channing Tantum said they are working on the sequel I guess it makes sense. I'm almost absolute sure I'm going to see it.

21 Jump Street (2012)

Hey!

Today I saw 21 Jump Street.

With Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum.

I thought this was some bad film like those made-for-tv films but but this had a little more budget. Then, my brother was going to see it and asked me if I wanted to join him. At first I said no but he was convincing enough and I finally said yes.

Well, was one of the best decisions I've ever made. I hadn't laughed like that in so long. It's funny. Super funny. It's impossible to see and not laugh. I laughed for 5 minutes straight. I think it's even more funnier because when you see the more common poster you think is some lame film but then surprises you with its funniness.

It's one of those you wish you could erase from your memory and watch again and have the same reaction.

The trailer doesn't make it justice but here it is:

As usual, after watching I did a little research and discovered that there's a sequel being made which is great because I want to see it. I won't miss it for anything.

The Vow

Hey!

I've said it before and I say it again I'm a romantic even though I try to be realistic as much as I can. Most of the time. But than are these films that makes it all much difficult.

I know it's based on a true story but let's be real. First: "based on" is not copy-paste Second: Channing Tatum and Rachel MacAdams, seriously? How sneaky. Third: the statistical probability to this story happen to someone on real life is what, 0.01 in 10.000?
Ok. I know. Here I am talking about probability when enjoyed watching it.

One good aspect about the film is that it's not that average romantic-drama film you watch on Sunday afternoon on tv. If you haven't watch it yet, prepare for some to-die-for-romantic-scenes, obviously, but has a swirl of drama without being too dramatic that makes it different.
The only bad aspect I found is the end. Seems rushed. When it comes to the end you feel like you're missing something.

I read a comment somewhere saying Channing Tatum has a special talent for playing these type of guys.

Well, I think I agree :)
