Scrooged (1988)

Posted on December 21, 2010 by laurarachel4

Rated PG-13 I understand that this is a favorite Christmas film among some of you but I didn’t care for it much. Scrooged would have been a good watch if they didn’t have all the theatrics. I usually enjoy watching … Continue reading →

The Associate (1996)

Posted on December 20, 2010 by laurarachel4

Rated PG-13 The Associate’s plot was interesting to say the least. I loved the statement that it makes about women in the work place. Although, Whoopi’s performance was amazing but the makeup didn’t enhance the work. I believe that if they worked as hard on the makeup  as … Continue reading →

It Happened on Fifth Avenue (1947)

Posted on December 19, 2010 by laurarachel4

Rated NR What an enjoyable show! I loved the moral of the story in this film. I think it’s my new favorite classic Christmas Film. It almost beats It’s a Wonderful Life. If you haven’t seen this film it’s a must for … Continue reading →

Eve’s Christmas (2004)

Posted on December 18, 2010 by laurarachel4

Rated PG The inconsistencies in this movie are too many to count. One minute Eve remembers something and in other she forgets-like lasagna night-how does one forget lasagna night when it’s a family tradition. I will say even though the inconsistencies … Continue reading →

Comfort and Joy (2004)

Posted on December 17, 2010 by laurarachel4

Rated NR Comfort and Joy was a notable film. I appreciated the story of a career oriented woman getting a chance to experience life with a family. The story has a great message about what’s important in life and while … Continue reading →

The Mortal Storm (1940)

Posted on December 15, 2010 by laurarachel4

Rated NR One of my favorite Jimmy Stewart films. This film was made in 1940 before the U.S. entered WWII and it is a marvelous portrayal of what life was like for a family living on the border of Germany. It starts … Continue reading →

The Tourist (2010) Rated PG-13

Posted on December 14, 2010 by laurarachel4

I loved this movie not just because it had the backdrop of Venice, a city that I love, but because it’s also a mindless journey of entertainment. Although, you can guarantee what happens it is worth a watch. It keeps you on … Continue reading →

Christmas Town (2008)

Posted on December 13, 2010 by laurarachel4

Rated NR Christmas Town was a stretch for me. Everything about it didn’t seem probable to me. It couldn’t hold my suspension of disbelief. It was too sweet, there wasn’t anything real about it. Maybe that’s the magic of Christmas but … Continue reading →

The House Bunny (2008)

Posted on December 12, 2010 by laurarachel4

Rated PG-13 I didn’t look forward to watching this film due to the content. Although the message seems to be flaky and suggestive, the message at the end of the film was the opposite. You need to be true to … Continue reading →
