High School Musical 3 !

I am writing this while coming off a high. Not like a drug high, but off of a musical high. Singing and dancing has never been this intriging to me in a while episcally a Disney movie made after 1999. In case you haven’t notice I mean the movie HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL 3! I am not nessciarly going to say that it was the best I have ever seen, I mean I have seen better. I saw the first two, but I saw them through the girls I was babysitting, and while watching it I was trying to calm them down, so I really didn’t have much love. But I was pretty excited to see the movie this past friday.

I know you must be asking why on earth a college girl like myself would go see a movie that my 12 year old cousin would see. I do see that the dance sequences and that the music just stays in your head…Just watch the trailer and tell me what you think

 

 

The third installment of High School Musical is entitled Senior Year, due to the fact that the main characters (Zac Efron, Vanessa Hudgens,Corbin Bleu, Ashley Tisdale) are “going to college” next year and the want to leave with a bang! They basically do everything I did when I was a senior in High School, just with dancing and showtune numbers. The wildcats start the year off by winning the state championships in basketall…again. Then with the students going on to college Troy and Gabrielle have to put thier relationship up in the air, since they are both going to different schools…You know the typical High School Drama

Sorry Again and Coming Attractions

I am so ashamed  of myself for the past couple of weeks. I have seriously haven’t gotten use to this college life! Anyways, I promis I will be back to me old ways and giving you…the ever so faithful reader reviews on your favorite music and movies old and new!

For your viewing pleasure, I want to show you and video that my cousin gave me to cheer me up.. Two silly  college boy and a female compainion make a hilarious remake of Spice Girls “Wannabe”…Enjoy

If that doesn’t cheer you up or make your day then I don’t know then. Once again I am so sorry for the looong delay… I will get right back to work!

Donnie Darko

Alright, I chose this movie not because there is a brother-sister duo as a starring role but the message is a freaky type, rabbit through the rabbithole type of movie. Donnie Darko is the movie I chose this week due to the complexity of the movie. You may think that you have a clue about what is going on in the movie but once you really get into it then you start to understand.

Donnie Darko takes a dark loo intoa family in the suburbs. The Darko family is like your average family Mother,Father and three great children. The middle child, who happens to be the only boy in the family is diagnosed with a bipolar disorder and is given medicine to put it at bay.This is where the trouble begins, we first meet Donnie when he is sleeping in a golf course and is woken by some golfers. Pretty soon after that Donnie is met with strange visions and becomes friends with a  man dressed in a rabbit suit,named Frank.

Here’s a Trailer:

Little does the audience remebers when they watch this that the Tanget Universe in ending and there is really nothing that can be done, at least I don’t think so. But while in the process of having these “conversations” with Frank, Donnie goes on a little call of duty message. He vandalizes his schools statue, burns a local star’s home, but also leades to the aresst of the owner, due to some quite disgusting photos found in his basement. So I guess there was some god to come out of it. Pretty soon times start to end and Donnie is starting to figure it out. Donnie feels like he is the messenger and he has done everything that he can do.Until Everyone invovled wakes up!

There is a song played towards the end of the movie called “Mad World.” The song was originally song by the 80s Band Tears for Fears, but for the movie it was remade by Gary Jules The dark and erie tone of the song sets the mood for what is about to happen to Donnie and his family.

 

I would recommend this movie to anyone that is of age. Due to the fact that the movie is Rated-R. But there is great cameos made by Drew Barrymore and Patrick Sawyze.

Madea’s Family Reunion

 Tyler Perry is an Arfican American Playwright who is know for producing,starring and directing in the majority of his palys and movies. Yet with every play Perry puts in a sense of love with Christ and the humor of that will keep you stiches. Today the movie I am going to review is Madea’s Family Reunion:

Madea

 In this movie, released in 2006, Tyler Perry plays a pistol carrying grandmother,also playing a smart mouthing older man, and a sleek-looking lawyer in this movie. The movie is set around Madea’s family who are preparing for a family reunion and wedding. But trouble begins to stir throughout the entire movie and vindictiveness and griminess throughout the entire movie. You see Lisa(played by Rochelle Aytes) is getting married to Carlos( played by Blair Underwood) while they are engaged Carlos begins to physically abuses her and begins to threaten her with her life if she left him. Pretty soon she runs, leaving Carlos to go to Lisa’s mother Victoria (played by Lynn Whitfield), who is a goldigging widow who has her hands on her daughter’s inheretance, and forces Lisa to go back to him. In the mean time, Lisa’s sister Vanessa( played by Lisa Arrindell Anderson, no relation) is having internal conflicts with trust men. With the fathers of her two younger children either in jail or want nothing to do with them. But she meets a wonderful man falls hard for him.The realtion ship is tested but they both come out on top.

In the meanwhile, Madea, who is use to the Atlanta court system, is assigned to take care of a teenager Nikki( played by Keke Palmer). This starts off as a challenge for both of the characters, to keep each other from killing each other but towards the end they end up acting as family. That’s the message that Tyler Perry brings through of all of his movies: No matter what the situation, God and your family will be there to help you through it.”

Baby Mama.

Alright! I just finished this movie and I thought it was hilarious. I mean funny from the beginning to the end. Lorne Micheals deserves a standing ovation. Baby Mama starring and Sautrday Night Live Alum Tina Fey, and current star Amy Poehler. This movie has everything I would want to find in a Romantic Comedy. Love, Babies and lots and lots of humor.

Here’s the Trailer;

Tina Fey plays a single woman who is having a hard time getting pregnant. So she’s trying everything to have a baby, from adoption, to articfical semenation she is just trying not having a good time in the process. So she hires a “baby mama” to carry her child for nine months. That’s when Amy Poehler’s character comes in, she plays a hardcore “trailer-trash” woman with her equally trashy boyfriend are brought up and agree to have the baby. This is where hilarity insues from child prooofing rooms and gumchewing fights the laughs just keep on coming. There are lessons to be learn throughout the entire movie and everyone ends up being happy, but still everyone has a time of there lives.

Saturday Night Live producer Lorne Micheals took a huge step with this movie and made it his own. Without his genius and Tina Fey’s witty writing this movie would have bombed. So I have to say that this movie is really great and I would recomened this movie to anyone who wants a laugh. GO GET IT!

 

Until Next Time….Stay Fly
