Forgetting Sarah Marshall

Point I Fell Asleep: ACTUALLY STAYED AWAKE
Location: Home
Time I Started Movie: Primetime

This just proves that even a blind squirrel eventually finds a nut. You guys know I've been hating on Judd Apatow movies of late, but this movie was HILARIOUS. Definitely one of the funniest movies in 2008, if not THE funniest. I was even hoping it wasn't an Apatow movie throughout the movie because I didn't want to give him credit for the movie. Kudos goes out to Mila Kunis, the poor man's Vanessa Hudgens, for putting up a good fight with Kristen Bell for the title of "hottest chick in the movie." Definitely worth the ticket price, and you guys know how much I hate paying $9 for a movie.

Oh so bad Tina...so bad. Stick to "30 Rock." Sorry, movie just wasn't funny.

Saving Face

So I watched this movie at the request of my friend Joy who made me watch it IMMEDIATELY. I asked her if she was willing to stake her reputation on it, and she said yes. And after watching the movie, I have to thank her for recommending such a great movie. I was expecting the movie to be a Chinese movie with subtitles, but it turned out to be an American movie with subtitles (due to all the Chinese spoken throughout the movie). It's funny because I was watching "What Happens in Vegas" earlier in the day, and I forgot to write about how the best thing about the movie was the Asian actress in it, Michelle Krusiec. This is the 2nd time where I've unintentionally watched 2 movies with the same actress in the same day. If you liked "Joy Luck Club," then you'll love this movie. If you're an Asian female, you MUST watch this movie. If you're an Asian male, you MUST watch this movie too. Trust me fellas, you'll thank me afterwards.

What Happens in Vegas

Point I Fell Asleep: ACTUALLY STAYED AWAKE
Location: Home
Time I Started Movie: Afternoon

Man, this movie was as funny as catching a cold. I think I chuckled maybe 2 times the entire 1:40 hours. After about 30 minute, I was pausing it to go clean the house. I just don't believe Cameron and even a little bit Ashton should be playing these roles. They're like the washed up Keanu/Sandra couple in that letters through time movie. They're just too old to be believable. This should have been played by Kate Hudson and Emile Hirsch or somebody. This movie isn't even worth watching on a plane!

The Love Guru

Maybe I was just in a good mood tonight, but I found this movie to be very entertaining. I don't care what IMDB says; this movie was funnier than most of Will Ferrell's recent movies. It wasn't laugh out loud funny; it was more childish funny like "Austin Powers" was. Plus, Jessica Alba shows why she is the hottest woman on the planet in this movie. I was worried about her after "Fantastic Four 2," "The Eye," and that movie with Dane Cook, but she definitely brought back the heat. Justin Timberlake was also funny in the movie. Definitely not worth paying money at the theatre, and probably not worth renting either, but if it's playing on the plane, watch it!
