Julie & Julia-4 Stars

This movie had one f-bomb but was generally a really clean movie. I really enjoyed it and thought both the main actresses did a good job. I did wonder how true it was to Julia Child's life. Amy Adams is just too cute. The shifts between time-lines were done really well and I wasn't ever confused. I don't think kids would enjoy this one. I don't have a whole lot to say, I guess... just wanted to put something on this blog since the last posting was in January!

The Proposal-3.5 stars

This was a very funny movie. It needs ClearPlay for some language and some nudity that isn't total but still enough to be considered porn! I watched it at a friend's and she doesn't have ClearPlay. A lot of the moments that were funny were just so awkward, so if you don't love that kind of "Office" type humor, you might not like it. I know a lot of people aren't Sandra Bullock fans but I thought this was a relatively good one. Plus, Ryan Reynolds is a plus in my opinion. Betty White is awesome... she is always funny, I think. imdb.com has this quick summary: A pushy boss forces her young assistant to marry her in order to keep her Visa status in the U.S. and avoid deportation to Canada. Its funny that Ryan Reynolds is Canadian in real life. They could've done a better job of making the love story believable, but I let myself enjoy it anyway.
