Cinema time

It has been a hectic month so I decided to escape to the cinema. I was looking for something light hearted and funny with a nice, clean, cookie cutter happy ending, so I watched two romantic comedies this week: Something Borrowed and Hangover 2.

Hangover 2 is a tale of three male friends who travel to exotic Thailand and find themselves in sticky situations after a wild night. The sequel is hilarious and laugh-out-loud funny, with embarrassments and twists.

Something Borrowed is based on a novel by Emily Giffin and focuses on a lawyer who offers herself up as the world’s doormat. Unattached and having just turned 30, she is feeling forlorn, which is compounded by the fact her best friend is marrying her law school crush. The film is a decent mix of melodrama, comedy and romance.

I enjoyed both films. They were mind blowing and allowed me to laugh and had fun. Served my purpose!
