Angelina Jolie

Since I finished my Jason Statham marathon, I decided to have a marathon on my favorite Female Action Star......Angelina Jolie.  I watched "The Tourist" today.  I don't know why the critics didn't like it.  I really liked it.  I love movies with twists at the end.  It had me trying to figure out who Alexander Pierce was, and I was surprised that I actually figured it out before the end of the movie.

I finished my Jason Statham marathon last night with "Snatch".  Unfortunately, I did not save the best for last.  I don't know what it is about Guy Ritchie movies (with the exception of Sherlock Holmes).  This movie was all over the place, and I couldn't understand a word.  I felt like I was watching a Foreign Language Film.

Well, I've put my Jason Statham marathon on hold for a moment.  I'm a sucker for Hallmark Christmas Movies, and they've been playing them pretty much every weekend since Halloween.  Here are a couple that I would recommend.....

1. "The Most Wonderful Time of the Year" with Brooke Burns, Warren Christie, Henry Winkler.  A stranger ends up spending Christmas with a single mom (who's engaged) and her uncle.
 
2.  "Holiday in Handcuffs" with Melissa Joan Hart and Mario Lopez.  A woman is desperate to bring her boyfriend home for Christmas, and when she is dumped right before she's supposed to leave, she loses it and kidnaps a guy to pass him off as her boyfriend.

Jason Statham

I've been having a Jason Statham marathon.  He is my absolute favorite action star.  I went on Netflix and added all of his movies that I haven't seen yet.  The Crank movies had me cracking up!  If you've seen them, you can guess which scene in both movies are the most memorable and funny.  I have maybe 8 movies left, but I have to say that right now, the 3 Transporters are still my favorite of his.

"Something Borrowed" and "You Again"

I could watch "Something Borrowed and "You Again" a hundred times.  Both movies have me laughing hysterically every time I watch it as if it were my first time watching. 
"Something Borrowed" with Ginnifer Goodwin and Kate Hudson



"You Again" with Kristen Bell and
Odette Annabelle
