Movie match up 2!

Now that Vday is closer than ever, widen your variety for movie choices in these upcoming flicks that'll either make or break your day (so choose what wisely.=p)

Love Happens stars Aaron Eckhart, a widow who became a best-selling self-help guru but meets Jennifer Aniston and realizes he himself has not yet confronted his own issues. I got to watch this already and it's a movie with a light story which I personally don't recommend worthwhile watching at the Cinema.




Dear John is a story about John (Channing Tatum), a young soldier on leave and Savannah (Amanda Seyfried), an idealistic college student who falls in love during spring break. As John returns to the field, the couple stays in touch by sending each other love letters in hopes to keep each other no matter how far they are apart. What seems to me like 'A Very Long Engagement' slash 'The Notebook', it's unsurprisingly because this movie was based on best-selling author Nicholas Spark's three-part book.




Meryl Streep, Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin collaborate in a romcom about a divorced couple who hooks up again making their life, their children, and their current relationships hilariously complex in It's Complicated.




If you're up to a less mushy movie but find a way to be clingy (*ugh*), you might want this Horror/ Thriller about a social worker named Emily Jenkins (played by Renee Zellweger) who fights to save a girl from her abusive parents, only to discover that the situation is more dangerous than she ever expected. Case 39 is currently showing in movie houses.




One for the kids, this movie is an adaptation of Maurice Sendak's classic children's story where Max, a disobedient little boy imagines and adventure to Where the Wild Things Are.




And coming to theaters this Feb. 17th, The Lovely Bones centers on a young girl who has been murdered and watches over her family - and her killer - from heaven. She must weigh her desire for vengeance against her desire for her family to heal. This drama/ fantasy genre movie is a must-see list for me. :)
