Most of the scenes with Julie and Aksel just gets to me.
One and three quarters thumbs up. I don't even particularly like her and there are a few scenes that are a bit weird to me, but I actually really like this movie as a whole. It's complicated and I like it.
They swap houses within 24 hours of exchanging messages. I have so many logistical concerns e.g. how will I have enough time to pack my bags but also change the sheets for you? And what I am going to do with my laundry that is still not washed. I am not comfortable with you in my house whilst I still have dirty underwear in the hamper. I mentioned this at Christmas and no one else seemed to share my concern.
One thumbs up - paid more attention than it's usual background status and realised some plot points are a bit icky. Can still let it go for this holiday movie.
I laughed so hard when she matter-of-factly said she was not afraid if the wife got physical, because she knows kung fu.
One and a quarter thumbs up - and again, HOW did they film this??
Realised it was Sean Penn a lot later than I should have. And am wondering if he got that jacked for the film, or are those veins prosthetic make-up artistry?
One and a quarter thumbs up - surprisingly that was a lot funnier than I expected! Maybe my top PTA, but I always had mixed feelings anyway.
"It's a fairytale town, isn't it. How's a fairytale town not someone's fucking thing?....How can fucking swans not fucking be somebody's fucking thing eh?"
One and a half thumbs up.
Rebby alerted the group chat with a photo of the poker scene and 'On TV right now'. Switching over!
One and three quarters thumbs up.
The Greta Gerwig version, because the Winona Ryder one was not on streaming and my DVD player still is not connected yet.
One and a half thumbs up
I appreciate Greta Gerwig giving grown-up Amy a chance. But even me, an Amy-fan, can't deny she is a total brat as a kid.
One and a half thumbs up. I still prefer the linear-story and Christian Bale of 'our OG'.
His hands on my legs the entire time; he didn't want to leave the cinema. I liked it a lot!
One and three quarters thumbs up - it was wonderful to see the focus on just the three leads and their family relationship.
Not at all the same. but lonely boarding school stories remind me of the time I was the ONLY student at tutoring in an old basic school. So boring!
One and a quarter thumbs up, the kids always end up being sweet.
Yeah that would be so strange to date a man who did never had a job, even if he did have decent money.
One and a half thumbs up - I oddly have a sweet spot for this movie.
The phone calls around the fire scene was nice.
Half a thumbs up - we held hands the entire time, and then went to 10 William which was so lovely!
The best part was the cameos from the drivers, but especially Roscoe!!
One thumbs down - that was NOT good. Terrible team driver, terrible tactics, it was just too unbelieveable.
It was very pretty and beautifully set/composed as it always is. But it was hard to follow along, and he is shoving too many side storylines for no reason. Was the review I texted (thank goodness for whatsapp)
One thumbs down, but then I treated myself to lunch at Ragazzi afterwards and he has remembered and admired this detail, which I enjoy.
"Bridget Jones is once again on TV *tilted laugh emoji*" is what I texted the girls
Two thumbs up!
