12 Riveting Movie Reviews

1. Finding Nemo

ONE STAR

Couldn't really figure out who Nemo is? Title is misleading. Thought the dentist character should've played more of an essential role.

2. The Notebook

1/2 STAR

Thought this was going to be about a library??? It's not. I watched 27 minutes then turned it off because I wanted some action.

3. 127 Hours

NEGATIVE 127 STARS

Haven't even seen the movie cuz I'm not about to waste 127 freaking hours of my life what the heck is wrong with people why are people wasting their whole lives trying to watch this are people literally just sitting there for 120+ hours watching a movie don't they have to go to the bathroom????

4. Les Miserables (the non-musical version with Liam Neeson)

3 POTATOES

(This is real life) Alright so here I am, trying to watch this supposed "amazing" musical because I have to keep up with the current times and I want to see what all the hubbub is about. So I'm at the 30min mark and no singing. I silently thank God because I'm not really a fan of these types of musicals but still what the heck. I approach the 60min mark and still no singing. I repeat, still no singing. Slightly suspicious but not enough to do anything about it, people have to pop out and start singing any moment now. Liam Neeson is in this which is unexpected, but alright, didn't know he could sing. I hit the 90min mark and finally give up on the singing. I stop the movie, look it up, and realize that I am watching the NON-MUSICAL version of Les Miserables. It is not a musical. I shake my head, say "oh what the hell" under my breath and finish the movie. All in all, it was actually a pretty good version.

5. Valkyrie

7 RUBBER BANDS

Basically the same thing happened like Les Mis. Here my family is, waiting for Tom Cruise to appear on screen and freaking kill it. Over an hour in, we're still wondering where the elusive Tom Cruise could be and if there could be two main characters with eye patches? We held out hope til the end.

6. New Girl (the show)

2 MAGIC ERASERS

Title is misleading because after the first episode, Jessica Day is no longer "new". Am I the only one who noticed this?? Major plot flaw???

7. She's the Man

12 LIP SMACKERS CHAPSTICKS

I couldn't get past the idea of "the man." Who exactly is the man? Why is it THE man? Does anyone really know? They didn't explain it in the film. You know when you "stick it to the man," who is that man??? Is it the same man that they refer to in this movie? I can't be the only one thinking this.

8. (500) Days of Summer

3 1/2 PEACHES

Not really sure how many days there are in summer but that seems like a lot.

9. Twilight

47 STARS

A lot seems to be happening in the daylight if you ask me... alright that one was bad.

10. How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days

4 HANGNAILS

I bought this accidentally reading it as "how to lose 10 pounds in a day". Not a very good weight loss program.

11. The Princess Bride

0.5 STAR

It's alright.

12. Rocky

4 DROPS OF SWEAT

I was left feeling...uninspired. Not sure if Sylvester Stallone was right for the part. I thought Adrian really stole the show and Rocky was just a mere afterthought with his small amount of screen time.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

For those long nights that turn into mornings when the struggle is real.

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
