Crash 2005,  R)
Crash
This is one of the most realistic movies I have seen in a long time. The whole storyline of the characters all collide over twenty-four hours because of racism & stereotypes.

I had to watch this movie for a final in one of my college classes. I don't consider myself a racist person at all, but after watching this movie I think it is hard to believe you have never had thoughts like some of the characters in the movie.

If you haven't seen this movie, see it!!! It will def. give you a new perspective on a lot of things & really open your eyes to what life is really like!!

Crazy/ Beautiful 2001,  PG-13)
Crazy/ Beautiful
This is one of the best love stories. It just goes to show how one person really can save you & change your entire life.
The chemistry between Dunst & Herandez is so believable.
I love the whole opposites attract thing plays such a huge role. It really shows you some of the hoops people sometimes have to get thru when they are involved in an interracial relationships.
This is a movie I could def. watch over & over again!!!

13 Going on 30 (Suddenly 30)

Fever Pitch (The Perfect Catch)
Still one of my favorite movies. I loved the relationship between Barrymore & Fallon. It was believable & funny.
I totally feel in love with Jimmy Fallon in this movie. His role in this movie showed me the perfect guy...
Not a Red Sox fan, but still liked the storyline. This is one that I watch over and over again, & still continue to love.

The Story of Us 1999,  R)
The Story of Us
I loved this movie because of the realistic storyline. I think it puts a lot of people's life in perspective.

Michelle Pfeiffer & Bruce Willis played their roles to a T. On the urge of divorce, but still feel there is a reason to hang on & make sure.

It's a real life look at marriage, divore, realtionships & having children involved. I laughed, I cried & really felt the characters. I felt a lot of myself throughout this movie too.

Forrest Gump 1994,  PG-13)

Alpha Dog 2006,  R)
Alpha Dog
I thought this movie was amazing. It was based on a true story & I think many adults that watch this movie will realzie what life is really about today. This didn't sugarcoat reality at all.
I thought all the actors in this role were amazing. Timberlake showed he can sing & now act. His first performance is two thumbs up & his role was classic. I found myself laughing in a few parts.
That boy pri had the best week of his life, so the he ending was shocking, but knew it would happen that way. I really felt like I cared for the characters & yes, I did cry a little.
Couldn't have asked for a better movie. A must see for people who like to watch real stories based on truel life.

Sixteen Candles 1984,  PG)
14
Romeo + Juliet 1996,  PG-13)
Romeo + Juliet
I find this monie to be a perfect display of the classic with a modern day twist. It has every aspect worth watching. It has romance, love, hatred, violence, comedy & tragedy.

I loved the main characters & think they worked very well together in this movie. DiCaprio is def. the best pick for a modern day Romeo & Danes is beautiful in her own way.

I also loved the whole setting & art display in this movie. The swords, displayed as guns, the whole California-ish style makes it updated. Although it was hard to keep up with the language at times.. it still made the point of how awesome this tragedy is!!
15
The Notebook 2004,  PG-13)
The Notebook
This was pri one of the best love stories ever made into a movie! It is the exact replica of true love! The actors are fascinating & you can feel so much for them. This is how love should always be! Oh, and bring the kleenex you will def. need them!

Titanic (in 3D) 2012,  PG-13)

Freedom Writers 2007,  PG-13)
Freedom Writers
Loved this movie!!! It had such a great message. All teachers should watch this movie & learn how to catch the kids who are falling thru the cracks. This is exactly what I want to do with my future & I believe to help teens like this succeed you have to find the common interest & show them that you care. I thought Hillary played an excellent role as Erin. I would recomend this movie to anyone who cares about the future of children!

10 Things I Hate About You 1999,  PG-13)
10 Things I Hate About You
I know there are a lot of teen movies out there, but this one is def. one of my favorites! I love this movie, it is one of those kind of movies you can put in & watch it over & over again!

I think all the characters are entertaining & I love Stiles in this role as the boy-bashing, negativite rocker! I would love to act out the role when she dances on the table at the house party!! So classic! I loved Ledger in this movie also. So not my type, but someone I would so fall for!

Corny, but cute all together. One not to miss if you like the whole teen movie genre.

The Breakfast Club 1985,  R)
The Breakfast Club
Love this classic 80's flick! I remember writing a paper about this movie for one of my psychology classes. All the different personalities cling together in this movie. It is amazing what one can learn from someone if you just take the time. Full of laughs & good entertainment.
23
Grease 1978,  PG)

The Pursuit of Happyness 2006,  PG-13)
The Pursuit of Happyness
Such a truly awesome movie!! Made me cry & make me laugh. I left the theatre feeling better about my life & realizing that things aren't always given to you on a silver platter, but if you put in the hard work & believe in yourself anything is possible. Plot was wonderful & the characters were easy to relate to, being a parent! Very heartwarming!
25
Ladder 49 2004,  PG-13)
Ladder 49
This was probably one of the best movies I saw in 2005. I showed the real life of firefighters in big cities. It makes you really appreciate what they do. It is a tear jearker so be sure to have the Kleenex handy while viewing. The storyline was great and the actors were fantastic and hot!
26
The Outsiders 1983,  PG)
The Outsiders
In middle school we had to read the book, which is excellent also, but then we watched the movie! It follows the book very well & you really get to love the characters. It's a touching story & did bring a tear or two to my eyes. It is a classic everyone should watch at least once!!
27
My Best Friend's Wedding 1997,  PG-13)

Guess Who 2005,  PG-13)
Guess Who
I loved this movie! I thought it was so cute & full of laughs. The characters are easy to love also. Great connections!! I also loved the speech Simon told Percy while they were practicing dancing! You can definetly feel the love between the characters. I also enjoyed the fact that it deals with issues of todays dating world. Just shows you can get thru anything with love!
29
Can't Hardly Wait 1998,  PG-13)
Can't Hardly Wait
A classic high school flick!!! Love the story & love the characters. It is true what they say, fate only takes you so far & then it is up to you to make it happen! It's got laughs & the typical high school stereotypes. Fun to relive sometimes !
30
A Cinderella Story 2004,  PG)
A Cinderella Story
This is a movie that I can watch over and over again. It is the normal fairytale happy ending chick flick, but still a good watch.

I thought Duff & Murray were a compatiable match in this movie & Coolidge played a good role as the "way too many plastic surgeries" step-mother.

It was fun to watch & had a few good laughs. I liked the twist on Cinderella, a cell phone instead of a glass slipper. Her dress was amazing too!! And I loved her pretend family from the diner.

Just a feel good movie with the fairytale storyline!
31
All I Want for Christmas 1991,  G)
All I Want for Christmas
This is one of my favorite Christmas movies! I remember watching it when I was a little girl & could totally relate to the Hallie! A great movie for anyone who's parents aren't together. Has laughs & a great storyline!! One I can watch over & over again!
32
Poseidon 2006,  PG-13)
Poseidon
I thought this movie was great. It had me on the edge of my seat the entire time! Makes me really question if I will ever take a cruise.
I think the moral of the story was very good & it made me cry in some parts.
It reminded me of Titanic with parts of Armageddon in it.
33
Déjà Vu 2006,  PG-13)
Déjà Vu
I loved this movie, the whole idea behind the story was outstanding. And it had Denzel to make it even better. This is one of those movies you can watch again & again & continue to see things you didn't see the first time.
It really made me ask myself, what if? If you want a excellent suspenseful thriller, than this is the pick. It will leave you guessing & have you on the edge of your seat confused. Def. had my mind twisted in parts.
34
Mannequin 2: On the Move 1991,  PG)
35
Knocked Up 2007,  R)
Knocked Up
Loved it! I thought the story was so cute & the characters who had absolutely no chemistry in the beginning just kinda grew on me.
It had a lot of good laughs & gave a good show of what relationships are sometimes like. It can relate to real life in so many ways.
I thought Heigl was brilliant & can't wait to see more from Rogen. His friends were all pretty funny too. Thought they showed guys with friends pretty well.
Def. a movie to see, pri the best one of the summer; for me anyway!

The Wizard of Oz 1939,  G)
The Wizard of Oz
This is my favorite classic movie! It is one I can watch over & over again. I think everyone should watch this movie because it is so well known.

I feel in love with Judy Garland & the rest of the characters after this movie. And the music is something you will soon be singing along with! Like they say, "there is no place like home!"

And if by chance you get the oppurtunity to watch it is HD... do it!!! The colors are amazing & you will notice things about the characters you had never seen before!
41
American Gangster 2007,  R)
American Gangster
So words can not explain this movie! Denzel was once again brilliant & believable as drug kingpin, Frank Lucas! He shines as playing the good/bad guy!

The storyline was great, paced & left you wanting more. I felt this movie was very realistic & will be the next big gangster movie! I almost felt bad for him at the end.

I would love to meet the real Frank Lucas just to figure out how his mind works. True genius in many ways! Everyone should see this movie, I promise you will not be disappointed!
42
P.S. I Love You 2007,  PG-13)
P.S. I Love You
I loved this movie. Such a good chick flick! Made you laugh & made you cry! I loved the whole storyline, letters coming from her dead husband helping her live day by day & doing the things she needed to accomplish.



I loved Hilary Swanks role in this movie. I also enjoyed seeing Lisa Kudrow again. And there is some definite eye candy in this movie... (I'm going to Ireland) I can not wait to see more of Jeffrey Dean Morgan!



This is one to see if you want a good chick flick & something to maybe put life in perspective! It does have a few good points to it!!
43
Jersey Girl 2004,  PG-13)
Jersey Girl
I do not care how many people thought this movie was bad & hated it, but I loved it! It is def. one that I could watch over & over again. What is there not to like about Affleck, Tyler, Affleck, Carlin & the cutie Castro in the same movie?

It was kinda weird watching Affleck & Lopez play together in this movie as the roles they did because of the real life relationship they had.

It is very heartwarming & shows you that you can't live in the past, how things change & how family is what really matters most.

It had some good laughs & parts that really were touching. I hope to see more of Raquel Castro in other movies! She is a total doll!!
44
What Happens in Vegas 2008,  PG-13)
What Happens in Vegas
I loved this movie, although it is a typical romantic comedy that is fairly predictible, I was entertained & laughed throughout.

I think Kutcher & Diaz worked well with each other & showed amazing chemistry. Both are hilarious & I thought fit well as the characters they protrayed.

It sort of reminded me of an arranged marriage, only in one drunken night they decided they were perfect for each other. I liked how the judge made them actually try to work the marriage out before granting them the annulment. I know it's only a movie, but it shows it can be done.

I hope to see more of these two in other movies together!!! I think it is worth the watch!!
45
Jack and Jill vs. the World 2007,  PG-13)
Jack and Jill vs. the World
So think this is a movie that didn't get any publicity & I just happened to glance at it the movie store, picking it up only to notice Freddie Prinze Jr. has gained a little weight. Then I realized Taryn Manning was in it also. So it had me sold.

Didn't really know what to expect from this movie, but after watching it I had a different sense about things. I thought it was really good. It had been awhile since I had seen a good romantic movie! I loved how both characters were total opposites. As much as I hate to admit, I liive more like Jack & would love to live more like Jill.

It left me with good feelings & there were so many good moments, I can't explain. I loved the whole idea behind it & the whole manifesto idea. Think that is why the relationship worked!
