Made of Honor
The Mist
********************
Made of Honor - When I saw the movie trailer I thought it was going to be a nice romcom. The plot was interesting enough, sort of like Julia Robert's My Best Friend's Wedding. This time around, it is the guy friend who is being asked to be the maid of honor. Unfortunately there were some scenes in the movie where I felt it was trying too hard to be funny, like when Patrick Dempsey's character bumped into the waiter repeatedly, or when the bride's hair was done horrendously.
Rating: 2.5/5
I still have to watch the other movies so comments still to follow.

Movies to Watch - Batch 9
Pirates of the Caribbean 2 - Dead Men's Chest
Pirates of the Caribbean 3 - World's End
Nim's Island
Lucky You
PS I Love You
Nim's Island - Having just seen PS I love you, I wondered why the 'father' in the movie looked familiar. It's being played by Gerard Butler. I've just googled him and realized he is also King Leonidas in 300. Now that's a movie!
Back to Nim's Island, it's a family adventure type of movie, meaning plot is very light and simple. When Nim got abandoned on the island and had to fend off unwanted visitors (tourist from a cruise ship), I couldn't help but think of the similarity to 'Home Alone'.
Rating: 2.5/5 Entertaining but do I want to watch it again?
