Jackie & Ryan (2014)
The story leaves you wondering
This movie follows two people who live opposite lives, but their love of music brings them together. In the end, you don't know how he ends up. Does he get his record deal? Does she get custody? What happens? I don't like movies that leave things opened ended for you to guess. I like answers. Also, there's not very much acting. There is a lot of music playing, a lot of staring, a lot of long pauses where you are starting at the characters doing nothing for a period of time. With Katherine being a main character, I expected more. This is certainly not one of her top films at all. A lot of "folk" music. All in all, I wouldn't watch it twice.
Magic Mike XXL (2015)
Wasn't what I was expecting
I give this movie an 8 because you doesn't love watching Channing & the rest of the guys dance, but it wasn't what I expected. The first movie at least had a story line, a love story attached. It showed how people can bring themselves up from the bottom to the top no matter what their profession is and of course had the dancing involved to tie together a great show! This movie had a story line, but it wasn't nearly as good as the first one. Yes the dancing was great (when it actually happened) but there wasn't enough of the dancing for as much as it was bragged about. You sat through the entire movie to only get great dancing at the end in the last 5-10 minutes. I just expected a little bit more. Not asking for a full on porno by all means, but just stating that for the amount that it was bragged about for being so "XL" it wasn't anything over the top.
The Duff (2015)
A cute love story!
This movie follows two high school neighbors who are total opposite of each other. It's a romantic comedy that is extremely cheesy at points, but in the end they fall in love and your heart can't help but the skip a beat. This movie goes to show that no matter who you are, what your background is, how others see you.. that there is always someone in the world that you are meant to be with. It doesn't matter if they are a nerd or popular, rich or poor, black or white.. everyone has a soul mate, and hey.. they might just be living next door! The main neighbor boy isn't too bad to look at either, he's pretty gorgeous. His smile melts your heart and the way she can put him in his place makes you thankful that there are women that can still stop men in their tracks! All in all, I would watch this again. Cute love story!
