A really cute plot.
Yeah, that’s what I liked about this film. Bear with.

Why I Liked... Main Street (2010)
(Dir. John Doyle Starring: King Firth, Amber Tamblyn, Orlando Bloom, Patricia Clarkson, Ellen Burstyn)
Colin Firth, even in a Texan accent (though I have no way of telling how good it actually is), remains flawless.
Now, let’s get down to business, shall we? *cracks knuckles*

Why I Liked... Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World (2010)
(Dir. Edgar Wright Starring: Michael Cera, Kieran Culkin, Mary Elizabeth Winstead)
Pretty. Damn. Awesome.
Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World is a comic I’ve never read, and after skimming volume one in a store in downtown Copenhagen, I don’t really have any real desire to do so either. Maybe if I gave it time I could grow to love and enjoy it, but it just isn’t really My Thing.

Why I Liked... Megamind (2010)
(Dir. Tom McGrath Starring: Will Ferrell, Tina Fey, David Cross, Brad Pitt)
I was sitting in Cathay Pacific Business Class (you know, the one with the fully-reclining seats and duvets) when I watched this film.
Other than getting a kick ass upgrade on a 15-hour flight, Megamind wasn’t exactly...great. At all. No really. AT ALL.

Why I Liked... Never Let Me Go (2010)
(Dir: Mark Romanek Starring: Carey Mulligan, Andrew Garfield, Keira Knightly)
This film’s score is pretty boss, really.
And Andrew Garfield is lovely to watch. So is Carey Mulligan. Also Keira Knightly (weird how I’ve been liking her more and more ever since The Duchess).

Why I Liked... Let The Bullets Fly (2010)
(Dir. Jiang Wen. Starring: Chow Yun-Fat, Feng Xiaogang, Jiang Wen)
I laughed, a lot.
For two Christmases now I’ve been going to the cinema with my darling friend L, and we always make sure to see some of the local fare. Back in 2009 we watched Bodyguards and Assassins, which ended up winning big at the Hong Kong Film Awards. So this year, we had to find a film to live up to it. I found Bullets for us, which we both went into thinking it would be a super serious film with deep and meaningful messages and tears and stuff.
Oh, how we were wrong. So very wrong.

Why I Liked... Tangled (2010)
(Dir. Nathan Greno, Byron Howard. Starring: Mandy Moore, Zachary Levi, Donna Murphy)
It was cute.
When my sister was a young baby model (no, really), she had blonde hair. Coming from a father from Scandanavia, this isn’t entirely surprising. I don’t know much about the length of said hair, but when my parents left us two in the care of our grandmother and went to Rome for a week, they returned to find my sister with a short brown cut. My mother was pissed, as you can imagine, and now my younger brother and I remain the only blondes in the family (my father has since gone grey).
