BOUNTY HUNTER

Movie: Bounty Hunter
Jan's Rating: 7
Time: 1 hour 50 Minutes

Jan's Opinion: I saw this movie with my friend Patty and her daughter, Kris. We all gave the movie a "7" rating. Of course the Enquirer gave it a C- because it is a chic flick but being a chic, I happen to enjoy chic flicks. The movie stars Jennifer Aniston and Gerard Butler who have a great chemistry together. Jennifer is a reporter who is hot on a case and skips bail to get more information for her case. Gerard is her ex-husband, the Bounty Hunter, and he is hired to bring her to jail. She doesn't make it easy for him which is where the laughs come in. It wasn't a "Ten", but was a cute and enjoyable movie.

2012

Movie: 2012
Jan's Rating: Hard for me to rate since I don't like this kind of movie.
My husband gave it a "3", my grandson would give it a "9".
Time: 158 Minutes

Jan's Opinion: As I said above, this is not my kind of movie so I did not enjoy it at all. In fact, we turned it off after 2 hours so don't even know how it ended. It stars John Cusack, Danny Glover and Woody Harrelson. It is a story about the world ending in the year 2012 and shows how cities collapse and continents crumble into the sea. Good computer graphics but a depressing movie. Glad we rented it and didn't pay to see it at the theater.

THE OSCARS!!

My daughter, Dyan, says I need to blog the Oscars and she is right, so here is a short version of my opinion....................

Best Movie: I predicted it would be "Hurt Locker" but honestly, I think "Blind Side" or "Precious" should have gotten the Oscar.

Best Actor: I haven't seen the movie "Crazy Heart" yet, but I hear it is unanimous that Jeff Bridges deserved that award.

Best Actress: It should have been a tie between Sandra Bullock and Meryl Streep. Who else could mimmick Julia Child the way that Meryl did?

Best Supporting Actor: I really didn't care who won that one.

Best Supporting Actress: Mo-Nique - hands down - no argument!

Best Dress: Sandra Bullock - 2nd: Penelope Cruz

Worst Dress: The one with the purple ruffles! Need I say more??

Best Body for her Age: Demi Moore

Worst Body for her Age: James Cameron's wife. Sad since last I saw her. She could be the poster woman for anorexia.

I would appreciate your feedback.
