The Last Song

After seeing the movie 'the last song' I wanted to do somekind of a review on it. Then I thought about other films I have been watching lately. And decided to do a top three thingie.

Firstly, The Last Song.
The movie is about a broken family, and the main character is the teenage girl of this family. She's brilliant with piano, and her dad, who's living now on the beach, had always been teaching her. Now, the summer after high school, she's trapped in a small town with her little brother, no friends and dad she absolutely hates. But after something like a half an hour, she gets a milk shake thrown on her and a very cute guy saying sorry for like five minutes. What happens next is actually not something one would thing at the first or even the second minute of the movie. (and this is not a spoiler, so no hard feelings) I have to admit, I usually don't like Miley Cyrus' movies. Nearly always because they are just too.. American. I love how Miley is always happy and all smiley and even if she's failing something, something better happens in five minutes. Yeeah, that is possible by us, all non-Mileys, but c'mon, I wait at least a week before my luck changes. So.. in this movie it was nice and somehow calming to see her in a role where not everything is perfect, where she actually hates someone and doesn't smile all the time. Like a normal face in between. Sometimes.
I was watching this movie with my friend, whom I hadn't seen for a long time. (okay, not that long. Since christmas..?!) And, as you know, a girl always wants to look descent when meeting a guy after long time. It's like.. like meeting an old schoolfriend after five years of not seeing or hearing of her. Or.. if you see an ex-boyfriend. You seriously want to look perfect. So after spending hours and hours doing my hair and nails and make-up and choosing slightly sexy clothes. Just a little bit. (and now we all shall forget all the time I spent in the stores looking for some trendy, fitting things.. And anyways, I needed them.) We go into the town, he looking incredible, and then come the words which I didn't want to hear. "honey, let's go and watch the Last Song, I know you want to see it anyways, so why not with me?". What I wanted to scream in the middle of our little shopping street was: "Freaking NO! Why the hell would I want to watch a film where every single girl cries with you?" I actually think you know what I did- went and watched it. And so fucking what, if I cried in front of a guy I fancy. No. I don't fancy him. He's just a really hot guy. But back to the movie: in the middle of the film I understood my eyeliner was on my cheeks, as he brushed my cheek with his hand. :) wanna know how happy I was about that?

The second movie will be now so much spoken of, The Kick-Ass!
I watched it with a bunch of girls, we laughed so much the poor kiddo near me was scared the whole time..
The movie is about a guy who's all that nerdy, and comes to this idea: why doesn't anyone just be a superhero and try to change the world?
So he does it, buys a suit and with the perfect world of Youtube (wuhuu!) he does it: becomes famous, and finds his dreamgirl and so on and on and on. Funny, and smart. And it actually gives many things we should think about: we (not even we in the small city where everyone knows each other) don't help an other man whom we don't know. And we don't want even to see it. We turn around and walk another way. And why is that? Because we don't want to take the hate on ourselves?

-Ellen.
p.s. And yes, I know, I didn't take here he third movie. But it's late. And I'm exhausted. Sorry.
