Ok, I'm done sticking up back entries. Now for a real entry. How delicious.
I saw two great movies this week and I thought I'd spend the next several minutes telling you that you need to go see them.
Sweeney Todd
This movie was visually amazing. Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter's voices were shockingly awesome for the songs. The lyrics were well done and clever, the score was amazing, and the plot was disturbing. I really want to see this again in theaters. Tim Burton + Johnny Depp = Automatic WIN. The blood effects were perfect in how over the top they were - very theatrical. I loved it. It was so gross.
Juno
This movie is SO SWEET. It's about a 16 year old girl who gets pregnant, but it's not a typical Lifetime "15 and Pregnant" movie. The way the main character handles her situation, and her whole personality are very unique. The storyline doesn't go in the direction that you might think it would. I read Diablo Cody's book "Candygirl: A Year in the Life of an Unlikely Stripper" and as soon as I heard she wrote this movie, I knew I'd have to see it. I highly recommend this book to everyone. It's her chronicles of the year she spent as a stripper. Anyway, Juno is excellent. The casting is perfect and the soundtrack is amazingly good. The ending song is so perfect.
I can't wait til Cloverfield this weekend!
