The Kings Speech

Di says- Wow!!!  It's no wonder why this movie has been nominated for so many awards, it is brilliant.  I enjoyed ever minute of it, even the sort of inappropriate scene with a ton of swearing (it was totally necessary) .  This film was visually pleasing with lots of great camera angles and shooting locations and the soundtrack was wonderful.  The characters were well played (I especially loved that P&P's Mr.Colins and Elizabeth Bennet were in it).  I give The Kings Speech 9.75 out of 10.

No Strings Attached

Di says - I guess I should have guessed by the name and R rating (14A in Canada) that this movie was going to take things too far.  Between everyone being either high or drunk for most of the movie or talking about drugs or saying the F word (which I know how juvinile that sounds) and that's not mentioning the awkward sex scene that they don't cut away from so you are left watching the entire thing (from shoulders up anyways).  There was also a very uncomfortable lesbian scene.   The movies only saving grace was the last 20 mins or so when they realize that, hey, you just can't have sex without developing some sort of deeper connection, who would have thought it.  I give No Strings Attached 4 out of 10 for the first  hour and 28 mins or so and 8 out of 10 for the last 20 mins, haha.
