Point I Fell Asleep: ACTUALLY STAYED AWAKE
Location: Home
Time I Started Movie: Midnight
IMDB: http://imdb.com/title/tt0461770/
Oh man, for 6 year old little girl movies go, this is by far THE BEST I've watched. Let me first say that this movie had ABSOLUTELY no shot of making me stay awake. I had just fallen asleep during Idol earlier, which I rarely do, and having started this movie so late, seriously, it had no shot in hell. But let me be the first to say - this was the best love story movie since "Perfect Woman." Yeah, I just said that! That's how much I enjoyed the movie.
However, the whole subplot of the movie was wondering if Amy Adams is a younger, hotter Nicole Kidman or a poor man's version. If you base it strictly on the movie, it'd have to be Nicole, but I just saw Amy on SNL in HD last Saturday, and she definitely wins it live in person. The casting in the movie was almost perfect. I was not too thrilled with McDreamy at first, but he eventually grew on me. Every other part was cast perfectly though, even down to Susan Sarandon as the queen. I have one small gripe about the movie which I put down in the spoilers section, so make sure you've watched it before you read it. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the movie and HIGHLY RECOMMEND it to all audiences!
***** SPOILER ALERT *****
Okay let me say that I really enjoyed all the plot twists at the end. I even enjoyed when the queen turned into the dragon. However, I didn't like how the dragon died. C'mon, for a queen not to notice the post bending and then NOT FLYING when she was falling...c'mon now. I'll even give you Amy being able to throw the sword to catch McDreamy, but the dragon's death was just too much. I would have rather seen lightning strike the post, the queen dropping McDreamy, and then Amy catching him.
***** END OF SPOILER ALERT *****
