Jerry Macguire: The name sounded intriguing to me and Tom Cruise looked utterly handsome in the snapshot.I found it to be an average movie.But when I wiki-ed (I have to – for they describe it scene by scene – so I kind of make up on parts I missed) it , I read how it was a nice movie after all.And the rage its dialogues were-
"Show me the money" ,
"help me help you"
and
"You had me at hello".
Well,the last one left me touched too.Acting stupid comes natural to Renee Zwe who looks like foolishly in love with Tom.I had loved her anyways in her chick lit- Bridget Jones' diary.
Someone like you : Its one of the nicest rom coms I have watched in recent times – not because it was very humorous or great,but may be because it stars Ashley Judd and Hugh Jackman.They both were new faces for me (hollywood illiterate I am).Ashely looks gorgeous and fresh as a strawberry .For Hugh Jackman's character ,I would say I love the way how the portrayal of his character gradually changes towards the end .And the other hero - portrayed as a perfect guy in the starting looks like a dud towards the end of the movie.A fickle minded person - happens in real life too very often .In the novel, on which it is based- the story ends where Ashley and Hugh should end up being great friends.How a boy and a girl can be perfectly comfortable in each other's company as friends.But like bollywood movies aren't really them without songs,a hollywood rom-com also won't complete without a kiss and hug ending.So,the romantic angle that looked "pushed" and unnecessary was there in the end.
By the way, I loved the way movie opened.How they study behaviour of males towards females through studies on Cows.
I also loved the scene around the "You had me at hello" ..very beautifully put "Acting stupid comes natural to Renee Zwe "..perfectly describes her in the movie.
ReplyDeleteThe movie is good and does have some adrenaline pumping stuff when it comes to sports.....I also loved Rene's son..so cute
Haven't seen the second one (hollywood double illeterate i am ;)) but seems a good watch.
