Eddie the Eagle (Film Review)

Today with my best friend we were supposed to go see The Boy but due being unprepared seating was sold out so we settled for Eddie the Eagle. I was a bit skeptical beforehand unsure if we had made the correct choice. However, afterwards I can gladly see it was a very good choice.
The film followed Eddie, a guy who dreamed of being a part of the Olympics. Throughout his life he's had knock backs and people telling he can't do it. It does sound kind of cliché but I think the fact that comedy plays a huge factor in the film it makes it utter brilliance.  It was heart warming, hilarious and fist clenching! Hugh Jackman was also in the film, I was nervous about this because of his previous roles in film but again my nerves were completely at ease.
It was so funny, a scene in particular with Hugh Jackman in literally brought me to tears because of how funny it was.

Eddie the Eagle is the best new film I've seen in a while. Also before the film started there were adverts and trailers to new films coming out (I always enjoy it) and well I took an interst to a lot of upcoming films so I shall be reviewing them when I do! -also I will post about today's complete experience but for now farewell and good night!

Legally Blonde (Film Review)

This film is old, I know. Until recently the last time I had watched it was at least four years ago. During a break yesterday I decided it would be good idea to watch it again, to see if I loved it just as much as I had, or if it had now been put into the cringe pile.

I am glad to say it is not the latter. I enjoyed the sassy Reece Witherspoon slaying it, just as much now as I ever did. I mean I did find myself practicaly  screaming at her for chasing after some dumb ass guy, after all no man who treats you like you're dumb is worth another second of your time. However, it did help her gain her independence and end up with a hunk of a guy!

I like to believe I am not a huge fan of girlie movies, but I do enjoy the melting heart moments, and the endings that leave me wanting to be independent and making something for myself. It is a heartwarming classical, I normally watching things with sad endings so it was a nice difference. I like that Elle kicks the ass out if the blonde stereotype,  and that she proves men wrong and conquers the courtcase. It is an empowering film, and definitely a girlie pick me up. 

I'm not into the whole pink thing though, but when you get past it, it's an enjoyable film!

Snervous (Film Review)

As promised a film review, maybe this is technically a documentary but what the hell I'll review it anyways.
I have been a huge fan of Tyler Oakley for years now, and he is one of my favourite youtubers. He is inspirational, entertaining and just a genuine person. His Youtube videos never fail to inspire, he just a ball of fun.
Whilst going through Netflix earlier I found Snervous and I was immediately excited, and I hadn't seen yet so it was a long time coming. I didn't know what to expect, so I have just finished watching it and WOW. I MEAN WOW!
It was emotional, it had me laughing, crying, and smiling to myself like a little fool. It was amazing to learn so much more about the guy I have been watching throughout my teen years. We learn more about his family life and coming out, and the issues he had to face with his father, and it made me cry. And it made me realise that family is important but not as important as your own happiness and knowing what you are and what you want. I felt so bad for Tyler and with the situation his faced with his father and I can honestly say I never want him to feel like that ever again, not just him but anyone who has difficulties with people who can't or won't accept who you are, if they don't like it or want to think different, that is there problem not yours.
Anyways, during Snervous we got to see what goes on behind and inbetween the tours and just how much of a toll that can take on Tyler, and it kind of broke my heart seeing him stress and it made me realise not everything is what it seems. It isn't easy showing up to places and being there for hours and getting back out again, there is alot inbetween and there is a lot of pressure on a person to deal with that.
The tour looked like to much fun, Tyler was beaming and giving his all. He is so lovely to everyone, even people who got photographs late, and even when he was incredibly uncomfortable with fans hanging outside of his hotel. Tyler is a strong person, and I know I don't know him personally even though I feel as though I do, I am so incredibly proud of him!
The film was great. it was lovely and it was really enjoyable and I personally didn't see a downfall at all.
