Movie: Kung Fu Panda 2
Jan's Rating: 6
Time: 1 Hour 30 Minutes
Jan's Opinion: I took my grandson to see this movie today and we both gave it a rating of "6". We really enjoyed the first Kung Fu Panda but found this one lacking. We decided it was just so-so. I hear they are talking about making #3 already. Sure hope it's better than #2.

THE HANGOVER (Part II)
Movie: The Hangover (Part II)
Jan's Rating: 6
Time: 1 Hour 42 Minutes
Jan's Opinion: As you know, I don't usually agree with the Enquirer's review but this time, I do. My husband and I loved the first Hangover movie so were eager to see the second one. Well, Hangover II had very few really funny parts but lots of crude parts. The title of the movie should have been "What the F___?" because they must have said that phrase 300 times. I'm not a prude but after a while, it gets old and really takes away from the movie. This was one of those times. In this movie, the dentist has divorced the prostitute in Las Vegas and is engaged to a beautiful young Asian woman. Alan is invited along again and puts a drug in their marshmellows and they wake up hungover in Bangkok, then they learn all the nasty things they did. Neither my husband nor I enjoyed this movie and would not recommend it to anyone.

BRIDESMAIDS
Movie: Bridesmaids
Jan's Rating: 8
Time: 2 Hours, 5 Minutes
Jan's Opinion: Cousin Bonnie and I saw this movie today and we both enjoyed it, had several laughs, which is always good for the soul. SNL stars Kristen Wiig (as Maid of Honor) and Maya Rudolph (as the bride) are quite funny in this movie, especially Kristen. They have been best friends for years and now someone else is trying to take the "best friend" role away from Kristen. That would be Melissa McCarthy as the bride's future sister-in-law. The two women try to out-do the other in the best friend category and it ends of being more like a womens' "Hangover" movie. Although I think I laughed more in Hangover. This was still a funny movie and one you gals will want to see. Interesting side note.........Jill Clayburgh plays the Mother of Kristen.

SOMETHING BORROWED
Movie: Something Borrowed
Rating: 8
Time: 1 Hour, 53 Minutes
Jan's Opinion: Cousin Bonnie and I saw this chick flick yesterday and we both enjoyed it. It gave us a few laughs and the story is certainly one that has happened a lot of gals over the years. Ginnifer Goodwin and Colin Egglesfield are in law school together and each is attracted to the other but neither ever does anything about it, so Ginnifer introduces Colin to her best friend, Kate Hudson, a much more aggressive female, and she reels him in. They get engaged and are planning the wedding, send out invitations, then Ginnifer and Colin share a cab, an unexpected kiss, and realize they have always been in love. What to do, what to do?? Ginnifer doesn't want to hurt her best friend. John Krasinski is also in the movie and is secretly in love with Ginnifer! Of course you are wondering how it all ends, but you will just have to go buy a ticket and find out. :)
