Movies movies movies

It's been since I added anything on movies, mainly because I haven't been watching much. It's weird but nowadays I only want to watch comedies and light-hearted fare because all the violence just bugs me. I think it's old age creeping up on me...

Anyway, today's entry is about 50 First Dates and Calendar Girls. Both were pretty enjoyable with plenty of laughs.

50 First Dates
I think Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore work well together and as a screen couple they're really compatible. They both look like they are having fun throughout the whole movie. Even though the premise was a little thin, I still enjoyed it, plus Rob Schneider is always good for some laughs.

Calendar Girls
Calendar Girls, which I just caught last night, was pretty good as well. Less haha-type laughs than chuckles, but still very entertaining and more so when you find out it's based on a true story. And Helen Mirren is such an amazing and versatile actress.

I am a happy camper today! My work computer has been a royal PITA because it's been acting up since Wednesday. It was just so slow, opening up Outlook took half an hour. Thankfully it's now settled, and Greg, one of the IT support guys, is now one of my favourite persons in the world. (Hm wait a minute, now I actually have to work, so maybe he's not my fav person after all...)

Anyway, happy Friday! :D
