The Notebook (2004)
This film was a surprise!
I saw this film while on a flight from Paris to Los Angeles. I was a bit upset because our plane did not have the small screens with the individual movie choices on it. There was only one movie choice per cabin "if you want another movie, get on another plane." Reluctantly (in rebel mode), I started watching it without having the headphones on. Believe it or not, even in silence, the film won me over. I was quickly drawn into it and soon could not stop watching it! Not long after my initial resistance, I put on the headphones. The only negative was the embarrassment I felt for sitting there sobbing on the plane as it is a very moving story. The characters came across with authenticity and were compelling. I also felt the way the film went back and forth between past and present got the message across effectively. At first I did not realise there was a connection between the two characters and as the connection starts to become evident, you become more drawn into their story. I highly recommend it as a movie I would definitely choose to see even if one is not a 'captive audience'.
Blondes Have More Guns (1996)
Worst film I have ever seen!
This is the very worst film I have ever seen in my life on all accounts. It is a series of continuous and abysmally stupid jokes. If it had a plot, I don't know what it was. It appeared that the guy who was writing it was trying to write an "Airplane" style film but tried too hard and with hackneyed lines. The cheesy "Under Sir Veillance" bit was about the highlight of the entire film. Then, on top of this inanity, add lots of gratuitous nudity which contributes nothing to the story except that the person making the film was probably getting off (it appeared the camera froze in a few chosen spots...like we have never seen those before!) The only funny thing aspect of this film is that it was even listed on here! I was shocked to find it. Okay,it is memorable but so is food poisoning. I was trying to think of the worst film I have ever seen and then looked it up! Haha! There it was! Think of the most boring home movie you have ever seen...then, divide the entertainment value in half. That is this film.
