Life as We Know It (2010)
Don't be dissuaded by poor ratings!
I went to see this movie despite the relatively poor rating, and was very pleasantly surprised. It turned out to be a solid, sweet romantic comedy following the ups and downs of parenthood with some real laugh-out-loud moments.
My mother and I decided to go because we usually like Katherine Heigl and we weren't disappointed. She and Josh Duhamel are both great and there are some very funny supporting characters. The child actors playing Sophie were adorable! 'Life as we know it'was hands down one of the best movies we've seen so far in 2010; don't let the poor reviews persuade you to miss out on a potentially great experience!
Fame (2009)
Entertaining.
I can't really understand why everyone's making such a fuss about what a bad film this is- maybe it's because the stage production's so good.
Taken out of that context, this is actually a pretty decent film, especially if you're planning to watch it with kids. The singing/dance numbers are great, and there are some really fun scenes. Granted, the story doesn't string together very well- it's very bitty.
However, I don't think it's at all deserving of the bad rep it's been getting; if you don't go in expecting something Oscar-worthy, you'll probably enjoy yourself. There's a lot of talent in here, and if you try to compare it to the previous incarnations, you're not going to see it.
