Quick Clips...

Confessions of a Shopaholic: We saw this for Valentine's as it is the typical rom-com. The movie was very enjoyable, even the husband enjoyed and it was pretty clean! My one question... why must there always be an English brogue in the production? Maybe I already answered that in the first sentence... typical rom-com.

Lars and the Real Girl: Funny, I wouldn't say I was rolling on the floor laughing, but it was funny... in a quirky sense. Lars brings home a girlfriend and his brother and sister-in-law couldn't be more happy, until they find out it is a plastic woman ordered over the internet. It is really great how the whole community gets involved to help Lars by providing service to his girlfriend.

Adam and Eve: A husband (prosecuting attorney) and wife (defense attorney) battling in court over an attempted murder case. Great movie. These are the same two actors who play in Woman of the Year, another fabulous movie.
