Movie Frenzy...

I think the last time I watched a movie was before my finals, Step Up 3, with some of my friends at AS mall.

After watching Step Up 3, being impressed by the dance moves, I asked around, whether they had the previous movies'; Step Up 2 and Step Up. Joey promised to borrow me hers, but she deleted it before I had the chance to borrow it from her. In the end, I borrowed it from Edward.
Well, the movie was okay, I guess? I prefer Step Up 3 though. The beginning of this movie was rather boring. I was very tempted to hit the fast forward button (which I did :D) at many a time. The dance moves weren't as spectacular as Step Up 3, and the final dance was a little dark and boring? I don't know... They are just my opinions.

Movie Rating:
★★★☆☆

Next movie, my sister's keeper. My first impression of the movie was, is this going to be another girly sort of movie? Little did I know that this movie was made based on one of New York Times' best sellers books.

This movie moved me to tears. It's about a girl, Kate at the age of 13 suffering from acute leukemia (cancer of the bone marrow), and Anna who was conceived to keep her sister Kate alive by donating her bone marrow cells and all. It's a really touching story, to see a mother not wanting to give up trying and searching of ways to keep her daughter alive... but the sad truth is, sometimes, you just have to let go.
Movie Rating: ★★★★☆

But if you read the book, it seems that the story line is entirely different. I have not read the book yet, so I can't say for sure. I plan to get hold of the book and start reading it. It should be a good and inspiring book to read, since I was already so touched just by watching the movie.
And oh, anyone got the book? :D Borrow me!
