reviews-day tuesday.

Chocolat (5/5)
Starring: Juliette Binoche, Judi Dench, Alfred Molina, Lena Olin, & Johnny Depp.
Nanny McPhee meets Willy Wonka is the best way to describe this movie. Though, Nanny McPhee did come out after the fact. So I guess Nanny McPhee would be a version of Chocolat and Willy Wonka...either way, great movie. A tale about a woman and her daughter who travel to wherever the wind will take them. They open a specialty chocolate shop, that causes a bit of disturbance within the community.




I Am Number Four (4/5)
And it's only getting that review because I wanted to like it, due to me loving the book.
Starring: Alex Pettyfer, Timothy Olyphant, Teresa Palmer, Dianna Agron, & Callan McAuliffe.
As you may remember, I read this book back in the Winter and was really looking forward to the movie. Despite most people, I enjoy seeing a book come to life, but it can be a little disappointing when things change and your ideas of what things would be like aren't the same. Luckily for me, there were only a few minor changes in this adaptation, so I coped well. I pre-ordered the sequel to the book when I finished the first, so it should be arriving around my birthday in August...Happy Birthday to me!
