Wallace and Gromit the Curse of the Were-Rabbit: Disappointing. I have come to expect more from them.

The Pirate: Move over Pirates of the Caribbean, Gene Kelley is my favorite pirate. I'm not a fan of Judy Garland but I quite enjoyed this movie. The plot's a bit weak but the dancing and acrobatics are amazing!

Mulan: This is one of my favorite disney movies, I was so excited when it first came out, finally there was a disney girl I could identify with. The story is ridiculous historically but what does that really matter? Favorite quote: "Woo, sign me up for the next war!"

Toi et Moi (You & Me): This is a French movie, I'd never heard of it before but I saw it at the library and it looked interesting. This movie was not what I expected, not an American movie, I know that should be obvious but it had a very different feel to it than an American movie, sort of like Run, Lola, Run is very apart from American movies. I hope that makes sense, I don't know how to explain it better. I didn't really like this movie, I wouldn't watch it again. I haven't seen many French movies... actually I might not have seen any other French movies, maybe it's just a French thing...and I take it back, I have seen at least one other French movie.

Les Choristes (The Chorus): This is another French movie but unlike Toi et Moi, I loved this movie, it's such an uplifting movie! Though the subject matters are completely different, this movie made me think of La Vita e Bella/Life is Beautiful; both movies left me with a happy and uplifed feeling. I whole heartedly reccomend this movie to anyone.

Quantum of Solace: I was a bit dissapointed with this movie, Casino Royal was such a good movie and this one was a little lacking. I am willing to cut it a little slack since the story wasn't actually a by Ian Flemming. Flemming's Quantum of Solace has nothing that would constitute a Bond movie, it's just an ambassador or someone like that, telling Bond a story. I also might not have gotten the whole effect of the movie because I was working on something while I was watching it. I do love Judi Dench as M though.

I Confess: This isn't a movie that I watched recently, it's one that was on the original movie blog that got deleted on accident. For whatever reason I remembered it today and decided to add it on here. I confess is a Hitchcock movie, but not my favorite. The plot is intriguing though, Montgomery Clift is a priest who hears a murder's confession. Suspicions fall on him and his vows don't allow him to clear himself, he has to try and find a way to clear his name.

Concert for George: A year after George Harrison died, his friends and family came together to put on an amazing concert for him. This is a highly enjoyable concert.
