Ever since I saw previews for this movie, I was hesitant to see it. I'm a strong believer in love.. in faith.. and in hope. When I'm in a relationship, I trust with everything that I have. I love with all of my heart. I'm just programmed that way. It's great at times, but it's definitely the perfect way to get your heart broken over and over again. I knew this movie would represent me well.. the girl who is SURE the guy likes her.. who makes up every excuse possible for him and who believes anything he says. So I waited.. I waited months and months and I didn't see it. Well, last night I caved. My roomie and I watched it, and I loved it. It did make fun of everything I live by, but in the end.. love worked its way out. I thought it was an entertaining and honest portrayal of most girls I know. I liked the different stories it followed, and I liked to picture myself as the different girls in the movie. I thought it'd make me sad or make me question the way I live and love, but it actually made me happy that I do live that way.. that I don't hold back.. that I'm not afraid.
thank you thank you thank you
ReplyDeletei looove your movie review!
because that is EXACTLY how i felt about this movie...anxious to see it and afraid i would get depressed and worried that it would shut down everything i believe in hahaha
my best friend forced me to watch it a few months ago after my boyfriend broke up with me and for parts of it i was screaming and throwing pillows at the tv and parts i was crying and parts i was histerically laughing and parts i was so...happy :D haha
but over all i freaking loved the movie and the storyline and the confidence it gives us to let us know that while "usually" things dont go how we expect them...every once in a while we can be the "exception" and everything will work out perfectly :D
ps favorite line of all time (when the two black women are talking)
"i'm so jealous of the man who gets to spend the rest of his life with you. well...that could've been you! thats what i was going for...why am i so unhappy? why have i gained twenty pounds!" hahahahahahahahah
I love this movie so much. It is really a great representation of how people live their love lives differently and how some are so committed and for others, love doesn't really mean anything. It's a little sad in some parts, but for most of them it turns out for the best
