What to Expect When You're Expecting wasn't what I was expecting...

I saw the trailer for this movie couple months ago and thought to myself that I had to see this movie. Months have now gone by and today I see the commercial On Demand. My immediate thought was $4.99? OH HELL YEAA!!!! I was expecting it not to be so cheesy but of course any romantic comedy that somehow connects all the characters like "News Years Eve" and "Valentine's Day" has to be cheesy!! An outright amazing cast including, Cameron Diaz, Chris Rock, and Jennifer Lopez, minus whoever the hell Ben Falcone is, I know your Melissa McCarthy's husband and all but your wife is daa shit, we all saw her in Bridesmaids, but not only that, she was awesome even in her beginning days in Samantha Who. You however Mr. cannot pass as Elizabeth Banks husband, in my opinion they should've casted someone better known and with a better personality. This Falcone fellow also did a terrible job being "pissed off" at his dad (Dennis Quaid) for competing in everything... pretty sure this was the  plot for Kicking and Screaming where Robert Duvall and the one and only Will Ferrell did a freaking amazing job. Elizabeth Banks is an awesome actress, she was hysterical, loved her! Hottie tottie Chace Crawford was looking hotter than his usual Gossip Girl persona but his character was absolutely useless since SPOILER ALERT he wasn't expecting -___- but I definitely don't mind him being eye candy in the movie!!! Another useless character was True Blood hottie Joe Manganiello, but by all means if you need hot men to fill up your movie time, I will gladly watch! It had numerous comedic parts which I enjoyed but the cheesiness outweighed the comedy. 3 out of 5 stars for this bad boy!

Colombiana!

I was never a fan of action movies till I saw this one... and Colombiana isn't a very known movie compared to movies such as Mission Impossible 4 but the fact that it swayed my movie genre preferences means that this movie was EPIC!!! I started watching it so I could kill time in between classes but as the movie progressed, my determination to go to class digressed, so sad I had to miss class that day :/ I've never watched a Zoe Saldana movie before, but I really enjoyed her acting; she is quite gifted and she's super hot too [no homo]. She was the only notable one in the film, but the rest of the cast was decent. I would totally watch that movie again if I had to, I was interested the entire time and a movie that doesn't bore me is a winner!! I especially liked about the first hour, thats what really had me saying, "It's only 50 minutes, I don't need to go to class, i'll probably just go on amazon anyway" -________- BUT IT WAS SOOOOOO WORTH IT because the rest of the movie was awesome too!!!! This movie is leading me down an action movie spiral and I'm freaking loving the ride!!!
