Solo Movie Night


I really didn't want to hang around my apartment tonight, so I sucked it up and went and saw "The Last Song" by myself. When I went to pay for my ticket, the guy at the box office was like, "Uh, just the one ticket?" I nodded, trying my best to refrain from grabbing him by the collar and berating him for judging me for seeing a Miley Cyrus movie by myself (which I will admit, is probably the height of sad and depressing).

I was kinda surprised that I liked the movie. Sure, there was a fair amount of cheesy lines, but as long as you're not walking in expecting "Citizen Kane," you're good. I definitely cried...not as much as I cried when I saw "Marley and Me" but there were definitely a good amount of tears shed. What I couldn't get past though was Miley's overbite. Every time the camera closed in on her face, I just wondered why, with all of that money, she hasn't invested in a decent orthodontist. Seriously, it was kinda distracting.

As far as Nicholas Sparks movies go, I give it an A-. Better than "The Notebook."*

*Disclaimer: I am probably one of the few girls who doesn't think that "The Notebook" is one of the greatest love stories of our time. Not a single tear was wasted on that movie. Though Ryan Gossling is WAY hotter than Liam Hemsworth...just sayin'...
