OMG that was good. Some serious cringe-worthy, painful to watch scenes, but in an entirely good way.

Totally. I mean, I had been vaguely pondering what the routine might be, and knew it was going to be something out of left field since it was pointedly held in complete secrecy through the entire film, but wow. Perfection indeed.

Finally saw it and loved it, I love how the film builds to the final scene, hopes dreams, flaws, and acceptance.

I saw this in the theaters a couple of months ago. I really really wanted to love it. I found it entertaining. The performances were terrific, but I found the plot to be a little predictable. I don't want to come off all hate-y, because I don't regret seeing it, I just wonder what I missed...

You didn't miss anything. It was just a cute movie with good performances based on a most common and predictable plot. It was simply a shining example of that kind of movie. Most movies of its ilk plainly suck. And this one had appeal and laughs and enjoyable characters and fun.


But I won't put it up there with the Greats of Cinema.

At Susan's family (which we just returned from), we do a gift exchange. Everyone participating brings a gift ($20 seems to be the target value range). We draw numbers and chose gifts one at a time. When your number comes up, you can choose a new gift or steal from someone else. Items can only be stolen twice.

I had #6 and Susan had #7. Someone earlier got the movie. I stole it, Susan stole if from me, and it was ours!

We look forward to watching it this week!
