ReplyDeleteDidn't know about the movie 'Now. Sound like a really intriguing idea and man, what a great cast! Looking forward to it now so thanks for the heads up:)
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure what possessed Natalie Portman to do "No Strings Attached." It was decidedly meh -- a typically shiny Hollywood romantic comedy with no nuance, no daring.
ReplyDeleteNever Let Me Go should be released on DVD in Singapore this month, so I'm hoping to rent it soon.
ReplyDeleteAs for No Strings Attached...hmm she never really seem like the romantic comedy kinda of actress, maybe she was just looking for a fun/less commitment/straining type of film. I still haven't seen it though.
Check out "Never Let Me Go" it's an amazing film.
ReplyDeleteHere is my review of it ~ http://bit.ly/lRKs5E
