Havana Nights, Shrek 2

Well as far as sequels go I guess I can give two thumbs up to each of the above mentioned sequels. Havana Nights was pretty good. It wasn't as good as the first Dirty Dancing but then again you can get much better than Patrick Swayze. He had a role in this movie too. I was glad he was there to inspire. I never thought that he could get old but it is surely happening to him. He didn't;t look as wonderful as he did in the first movie but then again he was about 20 years younger. Oh well he still looked good. Diego Luna who plays the main male character in this movie was really good. I thought he was really adorable. I kept trying to place him cause I knew I'd seen him before. I just looked him up and he was in "The Terminal." He was adorable in that movie too. He was also in "Open Range." I haven't really seen that one yet. I like this young actor a lot. As for the girl I wasn't so impressed by her. She seemed a little too naive. I understand that yes that is what she was but I just didn't get her all the way. I wasn't sure who she was trying to be. Overall though it was a good movie and a great love story. I like that its based on true events.

As for Shrek 2. It was so funny. I went and saw it yesterday with Ashley, a friend of mine from work. It was so great. I enjoyed a lot. I feel it might even be better than the first one. The kingdom of FAR FAR AWAY looked like Hollywood which was pretty funny. The love story between Shrek and Fiona was layed out perfectly. Everything about this movie was positively delightful. Hmm some people may begin to think that my blog is now a review on movies. I wouldn't take it too seriously though. I like just about every movie I see as long as it is a love story or a comedy.

Yesterday was "Wrapped in Redford" on AMC. I can't tell you how excited that made me seeing as I absolutely adore Robert Redford. Unfortunately I forgot about it until I flipped across it that evening. So I only got to see "The Natural", and part of "Barefoot in the Park". I've always wanted to see Barefoot and I didn't even get to see most of it. I only saw the last 15 min probably. Oh well. So nothing much else is going on. Thank goodness summer school is almost over. I keep thinking about maybe taking a semester off. Maybe I can cool off and figure out what I really want to do with my life. I'm taking forever to earn my degree and I'm not sure I really want to finish it. I know if I took a semester off I'd probably be so ready to come back I'd finish it and not have a problem. But then again to lose a semester would be crazy. Anyways more laters....
