Mean Girls

Gotta even out the Superbads. 
Two thumbs up - *cough cough* I'm sick - except I really am sick.

The Godfather Part III

I initially thought Vincent Mancini was Joseph Gordon Levitt's best friend from 10 Things and thought my god that man did not age at all! But turns out Vincent is Terry the casino owner from Ocean's Eleven. He was good. 
One thumbs up - I don't ever need to see/hear Sofia Coppola say 'I love you, cuz' ever again because that was just *shudders in horror* 

Superbad

Evan: "No no, I'm gonna be there for sure. Full Throttle. Charlie's Angels 2. Awesome"
How have I never noticed this line before?? Hahaha!!
Two thumbs up - I went to a cafe this morning and they had a menu item referencing Superbad. Then they brought out my coffee in an adorable mug. Then the plate was also so cute. Then I noticed his T shirt said "Old Enough two pattie". And then I had to frantically text Rain about all of this. So merch was purchased and I went home and watched Superbad obviously.

Widows

Liam Neeson ate Viola Davis' face in the most disturbing way. He was trying to kiss her but it looked like he was eating her. 
Half a thumbs up - very meh. Which was disappointing because this ensemble cast and director!

The Godfather Part II

There was a scene where Robert DeNiro buys an orange, and in that moment he kind of reminded me of my dad. I think more the jacket and shape of his nose, and less violent mafia man. 
One and a half thumbs up - I thought I didn't need to know about Vito's background but actually some of those were the best parts. Kind of like Voldemort's past in book 6, possibly my favourite.

Paddington 2

Oh the Wes-Anderson aesthetic was so pretty! It was twee and whimsical but in a delightful way because it is a kids movie and allowed to be!
One and three quarters thumbs up - okay Nicole you won me over with this recommendation. Agreed, Hugh Grant was fantastic!!

Paddington

I was completely turned off watching this for ages because I found this CGI Paddington to be so ugly and off-putting. Even Hugh Bonneville looks more adorable! Honestly they need to give this bear bigger eyes and a wider PD. 
Three quarters thumbs up - However I will admit the bear grew on me. Cute safe family movie.
