Been trying to meet up with people during the leave but so far only met up with S. Hopefully can meet up with Gab, K and P tom.
OKIE....it's time for minimana's daily movie review..hurhur..Today is chicklit and kiddie day!
Devil wears prada. B+
The tale of a naive country girl in big city of New york trying to carve her niche in the whole of journalism but instead ends up in as a ...fashion magazine editor's assistant?I particularly liked the scene where Andy gets to change into many fabulous looking suits/dresses while walking through New York traffic. Wish i could visit New York one day...deardear lets go New York! hurhur. Anyway i thought Meryl Streep was wonderously devilish in her role as the icy editor. The sacarsm, the piercing stares and aloof mannerisms are all engraved on her face. Excellent performance! This movie for all the girls out there! Go watch it. Alas, there were obviously too many product placements in the movie.. but what great outfits!

Cars. B+
I thought Cars was just another weaving of the same old familiar tale of friendship and family except with machines. Was pleasantly surprised to be proven wrong. It's also the first time i believe that cars are personified with eyes on the windscreen. Usually the eyes are the headlights right? Very interesting i must say...except that was just wondering where their wipers were. Hurhurhur. Everything was so well done, the details...it brought viewers into a world populated by cute little itsy bitsy cars. I still don't get Nascar racing though, i mean whats so great about cars zipping round a circular track for like.....what?? 300 laps?? Duh. I rather watch the paint peel.

Over the hedge. B+
Another as above. Story of friendship, family, morals, life choices...etcetc. Nice animations, the little critters looked really cute. Only thing i think they should have done in another way was to ...make the bear cuter! Bears are cute. Period.
I love lazing around at home!!!Counting down the days to going back to work...on call on the first day of work to boot. Sighh....
