Salmon Fishing in the Yemen: I saw a preview for this movie when watching another movie and decided I needed to see it. I just got it from the library yesterday, watched it and loved it. It was an absolutely wonderful movie! I loved it's feel good story, I loved the way it was filmed, I loved hearing Ewan McGregor's Scottish accent, pretty much the only thing that I didn't like about this movie was that like many movies or plots of late, a marriage had to be broken up for the happy ending to occur, I wish that wasn't such a norm, I don't like to be rooting for divorce or break ups while hoping for the characters to find happiness. See this movie though, so many good messages.

Kung Fu Panda 2: As far as two movies go, it was pretty good, I still laughed a lot, but something was missing and it wasn't as good as the first.

Kung Fu Panda: The first time I saw this movie I had very low expectations, but this movie surprised me, I loved it. It's funny, there's kung fu and good messages.

Casino Royal: This was the first Bond movie I ever saw, I don't know that I'd ever really been interested in Bond before this movie. I've only seen two Bond's (well three, I've seen part of some movie where Pierce Brosnen was the Bond) and those two are Sean Connery and Daniel Craig, it's hard to choose a better Bond between the two as Connery was the original but even so I think I lean a bit more towards Craig. I think this is a great movie, so many years later, it doesn't look very out dated, there is sometimes computer animation that's pretty obvious but the movie still looks pretty fresh and was filmed very well. Also there weren't too many of the cheesy Bond lines, I see that as a plus.

Clueless: I know this movie's well known and been around for ages, but I saw it for the first time this weekend. I wasn't sure that I would like it, I figured I wouldn't but I really liked it. I loved the satire and the Jane Austin basis (it's loosely based on Emma.)
