Hancock (2008)
9/10
I thought Hancock was an action-packed movie, with romance and comedy thrown in at the right times.

Hancock, is about a immortal man, John Hancock (Will Smith) with supernatural powers and a major attitude including drinking problems, who is hated by the public. When Hancock saves Ray (Jason Bateman), he is offered help to improve his public image. While working with Ray, Hancock meets Ray's wife, Mary (Charlize Theron) and son, Aaron (Jae Head). What Hancock cant figure out is, why Mary is so unsure and cold around him. But after Hancock figures out the truth, he starts becoming mortal, and maybe the only way to get this powers back is to get as far away from Ray's family as possible. I thought Hancock was a stunning movie with many chilling surprises. Charlize Theron was brilliant, and her coldness towards Hancock was extremely relevant and played an important part towards the end. Jason Bateman played a fantastic role as a supportive and faithful friend towards Hancock. Jae Head was very cute, and a great actor. But Will Smith was clearly the star, as he transformed from a rough and hard man , to a kind and brave hero. I loved Hancock, it was a truly fantastic movie that made me think about it, even after the end credits popped on.

Angus, thongs and perfect snogging was clearly a fantastic movie with hints of cringiness. It is hilarious and very clever with many twists thrown in.

Angus, thongs and perfect snogging, adapted from the Confessions of Georgia Nicholson series. It is a combination of the first two books: Angus, thongs and full-frontal snogging and It's OK, I'm wearing really big knickers!. I thought it was great how the used some of the funny events from the books, although there was some completely different things thrown in too. Robbie, (Aaron Johnson) clearly played the hottie in the film, who was oblivios to Georgia's love towards him. Georgia, (Georgia Groome)plays the role of the very stubborn teenager with embarresing over-protective parents, a dog-like cat and a 3-year-old sister, Libby. Angus, thongs and perfect snogging is about a teenager girl who is busy coping with friends, family, school and of course boys. I thought it was a good film, not as good as the books though. I'd highly recommend it to women in particular who enjoy a good laugh.
