Slowly, I am becoming a major slacker. Well, actually I'm pretty much already one. It brings to mind that teacher in the Back to the Future movies who always yells at Marty.
Since I've been home for the break, the highlight of my week was when I was forced to go to Walmart yesterday. The joys I have when I come home. However, I did happen to watch an amazing movie, I'm sure to everyone's surprise. It seems that's all I do, no matter where I am, where I go, or what I do.
When I visited my sister in California, we tried watching a different movie every night (try being the key word. Usually I was so e
xhausted by the time we ended up watching it that I practically passed out by the time any movie was over.) When my parents come visit me at school, somehow or other, we go to the movies. It's like the go to entertainment of my life.
Even tonight, I'm going to visit my friend Carrie, where we will, inevitably, watch a movie. I woke up today...and watched a movie. I have no life.
So yes, I am a huge nerd when it comes to movies, but sometimes I'm a little slow on the bandwagon to watch them when they originally come out. I watched Garden State. I had always heard excellent reviews about it, but I never actually got around to watching it.
It stars Natalie Portman, and she honestly is one of my favorit
e actors. I loved her in Where the Heart Is and Anywhere But Here. Even Zach Braff, who I only know from Scrubs and The Last Kiss, was the major lead of the movie. It was so different than what I expected!
It was good, though, so if you're like me and haven't seen it, you should. It's somewhat depressing but it has a good ending, I can promise you that. Zach Braff wrote it, which surprised me, in a good way. I didn't know how much talent he really had, but it definitely shows with the screenplay.
Like always, when I recommend a movie, I'm going to feed you the same line. Go see it, you won't be disappointed.
