Movie Review: The Best of Me

I haven’t seen any good Romance movie like this one in forever!!! I cried so much!! It’s so good and so sweet and so so beautiful!

It’s the story of Amanda (Michelle Monaghan) and Dawson (James Marsden) who are reunited after 21 years when their good friend Tuck (Gerald McRaney) died. As they prepare to say goodbye we learn their story and how they fell in love and got separated. The flashbacks of young Amanda (Liana Liberato) and young Dawson (Luke Bracey) are so heartwarming and just makes you smile!

It’s one of those movies who leave you with this feeling that life is good and everything is going to be alright even if it doesn’t seem that way right now. It just makes you remember how love matters in life and you should never let it go.

It made me mooshy as you can sense! I’m so high with good feeling or maybe its just my after crying feeling. God, I cried every 10 minutes! The movie is just so romantic and goooood!

The setting is amazing! I loved the town the story was set it. Breathtaking! Such a perfect place for a love story! I also seriously loved the characters in this movie! Both Amanda and Dawson are easy to love and you just want the best for them! They’re not too clichéd, they’re just your normal average good people and I love that!

The cast did a great job to convey this! I felt the love in their eyes, their smile and their words! I enjoyed the younger actors better. Though James Marsden is as gorgeous as ever! He was so brilliant! His eyes, it’s all in his eyes!! Ah!

The movie is based on a novel by Nicholas Sparks, who wrote The Notebook, A Walk to Remember and Dear John. I just want to know how is it possible that I never ever read his books!! I need to fix that!! All the movies I saw based on his books are just … Romantic!

I’m so gonna watch this movie again! I’m still hooked on the soundtrack!

نقد فيلم: The Fault in Our Stars

قصة الفيلم لا تقدر بزمن في كل لحظة منها هنالك ما يجذبك نحوها أو يبعدك حينما تكون بين فكرتين ، الأولى تتمحور حول واقع رحيلك قريباً و بين تمسكك بأخر قطرة من السعادة لربما هي سعادة لن تتكرر .

قصة الفيلم ستقودك نحو مفهوم آخر و هو ما معنى إن تكون حياتك أقصر من اللازم ، وكيف عليك العيش بفكرة إن الجسد الذي تسكنه ضعيفاً جداً ؟ و الى أي حد الذي لا تستطيع الآتكال عليه هيزل غريس كانت تؤمن بفكرة عدم المجازفة بأي شيء ولم تكن تهتم بشيئا معينا سوى   Imperial Affliction الرواية التي كانت تتمنى أن تقابل كاتبها و تسعى الى خطي أميالاً عديدة مع الجميل أوغستس الذي يطلق القصص المضحكة عن ساقهِ الاصطناعية ، قلبان في جوف واحد قلب فتاة ممتلئة رئتها بالماء وشاباً يمشي بقدم واحدة والأخرى لا حياة لها ، لكن السعي الذي يجعلأوغستس يغير مجرى حياة غريس لتكون كلمة okay هي المطمئنة لكليهما .

ترشح الفيلم الى جوائز عديدة منها جائزة المراهقين و غولدن غلوب و جائزة شباب هووليوود و ترشح لجوائز أخرى لم يحالفهم الحظ بالفوز بها . 

مخرج الفيلم هو جون  بون، و الفيلم مقتبس من الرواية التي تحمل نفس العنوان للكتاب جون غرين التي صدرت سنة 2012. الفيلم من بطولة شايلين وودلي و أنسيل إلغورت مع نات وولف ولورا ديرن وسام ترامل وويليم دافو يلعبون أدوار ثانوية . 

يعد الفيلم من أكثر الأفلام تحريكاً للمشاعر حيث أقر العديد من المشاهدين من الفيلم بالكباء أثناء مشاهدتهم لعرض في السينما ، مرضى السرطان يعانون كثيراً من حيث الألم الذي يواجهونهُ و لكن قوة الأيمان بأن الحياة لن تتوقف لم تمنع من هزيل غريس أن تصنع فكرة ما حول البقاء سعيدة مما تبقى من الوقت ، القصة قد قرأتها في السابق لجون غرين قبل طرح الفيلم ، وكلاهما قد أمتلك جزءٍ من قلبي وأسلوب جون غرين يجعلك تتمنى رؤية حقيقة البطلين عن قرب و الأماكن التي حدثت فيها جميع الأحداث و جون بون شكراً لكونهِ قد حقق الحلم .

Movie Review: The Hunger Games

The much anticipated movie of this season. Based on the best seller trilogy, The Hunger Games broke records on its opening weekend in USA. I didn’t know about the books, since I haven’t been in a book store for a very long time! But when I saw the movie buzz on TV and online I was slightly curious to read the books and had them in my Amazon cart. After seeing the movie, I will definitely BUY it!!

The movie was AMAZING! Very intense and entertaining! It was slow at first, but then when I get the hang of the story line and setting; it was just a rush of thrilling scenes. I can see there’s a lot of details we need to know are in the book, that’s why I’m excited to be a new fan of this trilogy!!

I liked the concept of the movie, survival of the fittest and all. It’s amazing how people act when they face death! Their true nature appears and it’s sometimes predictable, but can also be shocking. The movie was slightly slow like I said, but it made me believe the game was happening for real. The movie was more drama than action, but in a good way!

I don’t want to talk about the plot a lot, but the main idea is get kids from different districts (the movie is set in a different world), throw them in a forest and let them kill each other; only one can survive. This concept is kinda old, but what I liked is how the writer made a TV show around it. It’s just a reflection of today’s world, on how to survive based on rating and people’s love. True, no one is killing each other in reality shows (even though most of the time they try) it’s just the same concept; let everyone fight and back stab each other for people’s entertainment.

A line I liked that was said in the movie was, “I don’t wanna lose myself in this game”. It says a lot!

There were signs in the last couple of scenes of the movie about part too, and I searched for it, so “Catching Fire” will be released in 2013!! yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay.

The movie is fun and you should go and cheer for your favorite in Hunger Games ;)
