You Absolutely Have To See…

February 4, 2009 by Margot

  Slumdog Millionaire.  Don't just take my word for it.  Take Amreen's.  Or Ali's.  Or pretty much anyone out there who has seen the film.  I have yet to meet a person who has seen this film who doesn't just love it.  So my hubby … [Read more...]

The Duchess

January 20, 2009 by Margot

My hubby & I sat down to watch our latest Netflix pick, The Duchess, & the one question that went through my mind was whether or not Keira Knightley was ready to carry a film?  Incidentally, the only reason my husband agreed to actually sit down & watch this movie … [Read more...]

Four Christmases

December 3, 2008 by Margot

Two movies in the theatre in 10 days for me!!!  Certainly a sign of the apocalypse!  Or at least a sign of life returning to, well....my life!!  Friday I was able to get out with a girlfriend for a movie & some shopping.  Sadly the shopping never really panned out, but … [Read more...]

The Sequel is – GASP – Better Than the Original?

November 18, 2008 by Jen

This review is written by Kath, urbanmoms.ca staffer and blogger at Losing It. On Saturday afternoon I joined my daughters (and several hundred other hungry Sparks and Brownies and Girl Guides) at the theatre to watch Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa. I did not have high hopes. Why?

How do you Watch a Movie?

April 1, 2008 by Margot

Do you remember how special it used to be to go see a movie?  There were no VCRs, so if you wanted to see a movie you schlepped out with all of the other people & caught it while it was still on the big screen.  And schlepping out with all of those other people made it an event.  … [Read more...]

Two Movies & A TV Show

February 5, 2008 by Margot

So, I did a lot of movie watching this week.  The joys of having Grandma & Grandpa in to visit (i.e. free babysitting...yay).  And just as a little aside, I even got out to a 2-day seminar on Sports Nutrition up at UCLA (damn continuing education units).  Which, btw, was quite … [Read more...]
