Snap! Judgment: NEW MOON, The Blind Side
Seena

• New Moon

Is there a point in other movies coming out this week? Or me writing other reviews? Because they’re all going to be overshadowed by this one. Yes, I saw the first movie in the series and was able to catch this one at the AMP screening last night. I fear bad-mouthing the movie because of all of you Team Edward and Team Jacob crazed Twihards! I suppose if you’re a huge fan, you’re going to be happy regardless. If you’re not, well, this one is definitely cheesier than the first one… by leaps and bounds. Be patient, it gets better as it goes. Either way, there are a lot of hot shirtless men… well, boys, (A LOT) so if you like those, then it might be worth sitting through. Oh, and the ending? It’ll TOTALLY leave you wanting more. Stars Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner, and small role by Dakota Fanning.

• The Blind Side

I’ll be surprised if you’re reading this since it’s following my Twilight review… but for those of you still with me, this movie features Sandra Bullock and country singer Tim McGraw. Based on a true story about a disadvantaged teen that gets taken in by a family and pursues a career in the NFL. Well, I don’t really know what to say. It’s sort of corny for my taste, but there are those of you that love these “based on a true story” movies. Get those tissues ready… this one’s gonna be a tearjerker. If the cheese in “New Moon” isn’t enough, make it a double feature night and see this while you’re at it.

• Planet 51

I think “cheese” is the theme for this week’s reviews. What better way to top it off than with an animated film? Written by the same people who did “Shrek”, the story follows an astronaut from Earth (voiced by Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson) and his adventures on Planet 51 and the alien invasion. Other familiar voices include Jessica Beil and Sean William Scott. But… wait… what’s the point of having Sean William Scott in a movie where you can’t see his hotness? Well, I guess this is geared more towards the younger crowd, anyway. What a shame…
