Movie Review: The First Time (2012)

Very Very Good








This is not your typical high school romance comedy. First of all, the way the movie starts off is just genius. I mean, it is not some complicated plot or anything, the ball was set rolling right from the first scene of the movie. As in, boy meets girl, girl really likes him...that kind of thing. But this is not in a cheesy way or anything.








Movie Review: Magic in the Moonlight (2014)

Very Good







Magic in the Moonlight is a romance comedy set in the 1920s. It has Colin Firth playing the role of Stanley, a magician and trickster, who makes it a hobby exposing fortune tellers and spiritualists. He was broth in by his childhood friend to expose a young fortune teller by the name of Sophie (played by Emma Stone). He was blown away by her gift, and started to challenge what he had always believed in all his life.








Movie Review: The Duff (2015)






The Duff is a lovely, refreshing high school romance comedy. By the way, DUFF is an acronym for Designated Ugly Fat Friend. Although it might sound harsh, but there are a lot of DUFFs out there. You know...the person you talk to just to get information about her beautiful friends. Don't be offended if you are a DUFF, I was once one too. lol!

Movie Review: In Your Eyes (2014)







This is a very different kind of romance movie; a sci-fi romance. For some weird scientific or spiritual reasons, Rebecca and Dylan have some sort of connection between each other, like they share one soul, but in different bodies. Anything Rebecca feels, Dylan feels.

Movie Review: Wedding Ringer (2015)













This is a romance comedy with a little more comedy than romance. Well, it is a Kevin Hart movie...what do you expect? The plot goes...Kevin Hart's character, Jerry helps grooms that don't have an option for a bestman for their wedding. He acts as their bestman and makes fantastic speeches at their weddings, and he gets paid handsomely for his services.






Movie Review: 16-Love (2012)







This is an okay romance comedy. It started out very promising, but plateaued afterwards. A junior tennis champion, Ally knows nothing but Tennis, until she injures her ankle during a game and has to take a little break. In that 'time-out' she learns to live the life of a normal teenager. While she helps the clumsy Farrell Gambles to get better at tennis, he helps her on lost times as a youth.



Movie Review: Keith (2008)



This is a great high school romance movie...a romance drama. Natalie had everything in check; great boyfriend, good GPA, great at Tennis, a nice family...and then Keith showed up. Even though she was dating Raff, Keith kept making her spend a lot of time with him; from being lab partners, to playing pranks on some of their Teachers, at 4 a:m.





Movie Review: Love, Rosie (2014)

Alex and Rosie have been best friends since they were kids. Both of them secretly always wanted to be more than just friends, but were too scared to make that move. They went on like that; from high school, to after high school, to Alex moving away to America (from Britain), to Rosie having a baby for another guy, to both getting married to different people at a point...But they ended up back together.




This is a cool love story, but I find it hard to accept that it was the girl trying to make the move from friendship to lovers, while the guy played naive; till maybe after the first half of the movie. Of cos there are a lot of guys that get 'friendzoned' for a long time, but none would stay there when the girl is making efforts to get them to 'lovers-zone.'




This romance drama gets a 6.5/10 rating from me. It's an OKAY movie.

All of My Heart is a lovely romance comedy; a TV Movie. A lady cook breaks up with her long time boyfriend when it seems their relationship isn't going anywhere and her guy is more concerned about his career. As luck would have it, she also inherited a house around the same time.

Movie Review: Prom (2011)

This movie is about Prom, and all the drama that goes on weeks before that great night. It just doesn't center on the life of one girl and her close friends, but on multiple characters and their love lives. I think one big plus in this movie is how all those characters really interest you and not just the main character.



Movie Review: She's The Man (2006)

I first watched this movie with my little niece the year it was released, and I loved it instantly. I mean, I loved it so much that I went out and got the DVD, and watched like hundred times after that. This is most definitely Amanda Bynes's best; at least for now, until she gets back that magic she had in this movie.







Word from the Editor

Hey guys! My name is Kay, and I'll be thrilling you with romance movie reviews on this blog. I love chick flicks and I thought 'why not write movie reviews' about the latest and old romance movies. Actually, I had a blog on movie reviews some years back, but I deleted it when I got busy with life.







 I have more time to myself now, and decided to start this again. So...Here we go!!!
