Film: The Hobbit.
Director: Peter Jackson.
Not my usual film but I did enjoy it.
Honestly, the most memorable thing about it...it was very long...
I loved the action and the drama but the beginning bored me a little. I loved the scene with the dragon and the dwarves though because who doesn't like dragons?!
My favourite scene was when Bilbo stood up to the white orc to protect Thorin it was cool and I loved how Bilbo became a hero to them!
Overall, I'd give The Hobbit: 8/10.
Good but I don't know if I'd see it again in a hurry.

Love And Other Drugs.
Film: Love And Other Drugs.
Director: Edward Zwick.
A surprising film which I loved! Though it was pretty awkward to watch it with my mother and grandmother in the room!!
I adored Anne Hathaway as Maggie, I think she played the role perfectly. There were times as the audience where I felt horribly awkward for her which was exactly what I was supposed to feel!
Jake Gyllenhaal as Jamie was wonderful, he played the ladies man role beautifully until he finally became the man Maggie wanted but was afraid to ask for.
My first favourite part was when he waited in the car for her to come back from Canada and the relationship began and my second was when he made the bus pull over so he could tell her how much he loved her.
Overall, I'd give Love And Other Drugs: 9/10.
Pretty awesome however awkward with your mother!

Oblivion.
Film: Oblivion.
Director: Joseph Kosinski.
I wasn't sure about this film I'll be honest, I'm not the biggest fan of Tom Cruise but hey!
The film was okay, I loved the whole futuristic thing and all the scientific gadgets they have!
I definitely loved the twisting plot line with Jack and Julia.
However, there were some parts of the film which were very predictable which was irritating yet totally predicted!
Overall, I'd give Oblivion: 5/10
It was alright but I'm not sure I would see it again!

Pitch Perfect.
Film: Pitch Perfect.
Director: Jason Moore.
I love films like this!
I wanted to see it in the cinema but never got round to it due to one thing or another and I'm annoyed I didn't! Such a good film, I love Anna Kendrick!
I think Kendrick is very similar to Kristen Stewart, in a good way though, haha!
I loved this movie and the rag tag group of girls that ended up singing together, I especially loved the way they all came out of their shells in the end to become winners!
The relationship between Beca and Jesse is awesome and I would have loved to see the pair of them sing together; I definitely loved the part where Beca sang the Breakfast Club song ending and Jesse put his fist up in the air.
Overall, I'd give Pitch Perfect: 9/10
Feel good, with some awesome dancing!

Identitiy Thief.
Film: Identity Thief.
Director: Seth Gordon.
Daaaaaamn, I love Melissa McCarthy! I loved her in Bridesmaids and I loved her in this! She suited the female Sandy perfectly, I'm pretty sure the role was made for her.
The film has the hilariously funny bits along with the heartwrenchingly sad parts which made me tear up, then the next second you're laughing again.
The pairing of Melissa and Jason was brilliant, they were funny together and I loved the ending! I agree with Melissa..Dawn Budgie is a fucking awful name!!
Overall, I'd give Identity Thief: 9/10
So good!

The Host.
Film: The Host.
Director: Andrew Niccol.
I've been waiting for this film for over a year. I'm not even kidding. They released a short trailer just after The Hunger Games had come out in the cinema.
I reread the book before going to see the film so it was all fresh in my noodle!
I'll be honest, books into films are never as good as you dream they will be. Compared to the book you will always be disappointed and The Host was no different. There were big chunks missed out and big sections changed, but that's understandable! I still enjoyed the film even if I was slightly annoyed by the changes and the deleted bits but I still loved it.
I was very happy with the way they did Melanie's voice in Wanda's head it was better than I thought it was going to be!
My favourite scene was when Jamie and Wanda were sitting in the cave with the glow worms and he said about being quiet and then clapped and it all went dark.
I did enjoy the film but I almost wish I hadn't reread the book just beforehand!
Overall, I'd give The Host: 8/10.
Not what I'd expected and hoped it would be, but I still liked it.

The Croods.
Film: The Croods.
Director: Chris Sanders & Kirk De Micco.
Holy crap. From the very first trailer I saw of this at Wreck-It Ralph I wanted to see it! It was every bit as awesome as I had hoped and more!
It's not just a kids film by any means it has some humour in it which adults are more likely to get but aren't rude or in anyway in appropriate for young ears!
The family consists of Grug (the father), Ugga (mother), Gran (gran..funnily enough!), Thunk (the pretty dim brother), Sandy (the animalistic little sister) and finally Eep (the rebel!). Not forgetting of course Guy (the guide) and Belt (...his belt).
Guy and Eep's relationship makes me laugh she is a totally overprotective girlfriend, add in some caveman strength and you have an interesting lady! Grug, like most fathers, dislikes the relationship and takes great measure to ensure they are separated at all times.
My favourite scene was one of the final scenes in the cave with the giant sabre toothed cat when Grug has fire and waves it in his face and the cat just blows it out...seconds later they're both blowing it back into life after hearing a noise and the cat pins him to the wall purring!
Overall, I'd give The Croods: 10/10.
Totally fantastic, I loved it!
