Cinema a la Carte/Easy A

Last week my roommates and I went to the movies to finally watch Easy A, after waiting like a month for the premiere.

Easy A is about Olive a girl who's almost invisible at school, but in order to be noticed, decides that a rumor that's been running around comes to seems like the truth. A lie that changed her reputation. Suddenly she's the "it" girl, but she starts wondering if all of this attention is really worth it or not. Gossiping, texting, lies and everything in between a high school student's life.

The cast is amazing, young and talented. Emma Stone really brings Olive alive.  Other A-Cast is Penn Badgley (Gossip Girl and my Lover), Amanda Bynes (Who apparently didn't quit acting after all), Cam Gigandet (The O.C. who happens to be my lover too) lol and the magnificent Stanley Tucci (The Devil Wears Prada) who plays the liberal alternative dad.

Definitely a must see movie. Is hilariously charming... you just can't stop laughing during the whole movie. In top of that gives us a message without been a message movie.

Cinema a la Carte/The Social Network

With more than 500 million users, Facebook is the leading social networking site based on monthly unique visitors. Coming up with the idea of making a movie out of this successful story was obviously the next step.

The movie narrates everything that Mark Zuckerberg had to go through before becoming the youngest billionaire in the world (with a net worth of US$4 billion in 2010) and the co-founder of Facebook. But you don't make 500 million friends without making some enemies, then also shows the struggle moments he had to face.

Being Facebook Whore, I cannot wait for the movie to come out. I seriously believe this guy is an example of creativity, intelligence and cleverness. Because who would have thought that his idea of sharing people's "thoughts" and "beliefs" about others would become the beginning of a new era in media.

The trailer gets me chills every time I watch it. Simple and catches the essence of what you do on Facebook; then the soundtrack song, just completes the whole Facebook experience.

In theatres October 1 2010.

Cinema a la Carte/ Eat, Pray, Love

In a World full of craziness, stress, business and money, when sometimes we let this things carry us away, it's good when someone remind us there's more than that.

Eat, Pray, Love; is a great movie, with the wonderful Julia Roberts. The drama, the dialogs and the characters really get to you and you related with them in one way or another. Also, describes the American life perfectly...

It's a movie that makes you think about your life, you're everyday decisions and actions. You immediately start evaluating the things you have done in the past, and you start wondering if you're happy or not.

It's a reminder of what should really be important in life: friends, family and specially ourselves. The pursuit of happiness and balance...

And do I have to say the company I had while watching this movie was amazing!? Thank you boo for such an amazing weekend...

Cinema a la Carte/ The Sorcerer's Apprentice

Watching The Sorcerer's Apprentice was definitely not how imagine my last date. However, for being a kid's movie was not bad at all. I don't know how directors keep trying to make Nicolas Cage look COOL in "actions movies" but I didn't hate him in here.

The story line is not that bad, the character's are OK, and the soundtrack it's the best. The song called Secrets by One Republic, really made me not hate this movie. For some reason, it kind of  describes the way I've been feeling lately, and for a not so good date, the song saved me.  And Am I the only one who thinks that the girl Teresa Palmer looks so like Kristen Stewart?

Anyway, if you have relatives under 15, take them to the movies and watch it with them, probably you're gonna have more fun than watching it with your 20 years old date...

Cinema a la Carte/ Sex and The City 2, the gayest movie I have ever seen

From the over stylish clothes on the characters, the so cliche's gay scenes,the Liza Minelli appearance, and the fact that the theater room was packed with Gays, this movie really was the gayest movie I have ever seen, but still I loved it.

And who doesn't, I mean, Noah Mills ass, Max Ryan ass & the Australian sausages from the rugby team, really, I was already feeling something down South in my body, like Samantha said.

It was like watching Project Runway meets Gay Pride Festival, meets American Idol... In a kind of good way... The clothes were A-M-Azing, of course a little bit over the top, but still acceptable, the story way better than I thought it'll be and the guys, well I just have three words for that... HOT!!!

The only part I didn't like was the part were the girls are singing and all the sudden everybody's dancing (So "American cliche", American girl's in a different country, fun for sure, Whatever...) and at the end the Arabian girls wearing Designer's clothes, I kind of not believe it...

Overall, a nice movie to watch with some friends, in particularly with Gay friends or friends that are obsessed with fashion...
