Divergent

Although I haven't read the book, like I planned to before seeing the movie, I loved it.

At the screening, there was a Red Carpet, where Miles Teller and Jai Courtney (Peter and Eric) came, and talked to some fans, and press about the movie! I was lucky enough to get Miles' autograph in my book! I tried to get good pictures but the lighting wasn't great and when they were on stage, they never really looked to the side I was on. After we were let in the theater, and the movie was about to start, Miles and Jai came in and announced the movie.

Since, I didn't read the book, I didn't know what the Factions were, and what the symbols meant. I thought they explained it very well and I understood. But, in the trailer they said she's "Divergent" and said she had to hide where they wouldnt expect to find her, so when she was jumping into the whole, I thought thats where all the Divergents go but it not, so that was a little confusing.

I really liked Four's character, and how he watched out for Tris. But it was soooo awkward watching her last stage of training, her last 'Fear', because once she's  given that serum, they can watch on monitors whats happening in her brain and what she sees, and Four was there watching. (you'll understand once you watch it!!!)


I really wanted to read the book before watching it, but I think I'll still read it, so I know everything there is to know for Insurgent and Allegiant!!

I cried, I laughed, I gasped, I covered my mouth in astonishment, I'm pretty sure I went through every emotion while watching this movie. And I got so sucked into it, it didn't even seem like it was over 2hrs long, I never got bored, and I never felt like it got "slow" in some areas.

The cast was fantastic! I can't wait to see Ansel and Shailene in TFIOS this June, and then Insurgent!!!


I think this is probably one of the "Movies Of The Year" and def. one of my top movies of all time!!

Mr. Peabody and Sherman

I really wanted to see this movie, because it looked funny and I loved the cast. But I thought it would be funnier than it was.

I know kids liked it, because they laughed at everything, even the jokes that only the parents/adults should get, and you could tell they only laughed because their parents were. There was some good comedy in there, and a cool story line. 

It was a little bit of a letdown, but it's a great babysitting movie!! 

Take the kids!

3 Days to Kill

If you read my reviews you'd know Comedy is my all time favorite genre of movie, and action isn't. But I saw this movie for the sole reason that Hailee Steinfeld( True Grit, Ender's Game, Romeo and Juliet) is in it, and she's my favorite teen actress! I ended up really enjoying this movie! 

There's A LOT of action(but in a good way) and there is some good comedy too! 

I was very happy that Hailee was in a large part of the movie.. And not just a few scenes! 

It was kind of hard to understand some of the lines that were said, but can you always understand what people say when their talking? And also, a lot of people say they don't understand the name.. It is said twice in the movie, but they probably could have chosen a better  title. 

I think this is kind of a guy movie, but girls who like action will love it! 

I'll probably buy it on DVD!! 

5/5 glasses!! ( one of my favorite scenes was the scene about sauces😊)
