Movie/DVD Buffs

watched a couple of dvds over the weekend...
1) Hairspray
2) Notes on a scandal
3) Waterhorse


HAIRSPRAY

aweeeesomeeee... Full of life, smiles and laughter. Thumbs Up!!!!!!!

Set in Baltimore during the 1960s dance TV craze, a zaftig high school hair hopper, Tracy Turnblad, graduates from outsider to celebrity trendsetter and along the way she stars on "The Corny Collins Show," wins the heart of resident hunk Link Larkin and kicks down the barriers for black and white integration on local television

Rating: 4.5/5

NOTES ON A SCANDAL

Freaky and scandalously impressive!

When Sheba Hart joins St. George's as the new art teacher, Barbara Covett senses a kindred spirit. But Barbara is not the only one drawn to her. Sheba begins an illicit affair and Barbara becomes the keeper of her secret.

Rating: 4/5

WATERHORSE

Not too bad, Disneyfied. But again, i'm not a fantasy kindof person. People who liked movie like Freaky Friday will probably like it

The Academy Award-Winning producer and special-effects team behind "The Lord of the Rings" team up with Revolution Studios, Walden Media (of "The Chronicles of Narnia") and Beacon Pictures to bring to the screen the magical film "The Water Horse: Legend of the Deep". Rooted in one of the most enduring and intriguing legends of our time, the story begins with an enchanted egg which soon hatches and sets in motion an adventure that will take a young boy on an unforgettable journey of a lifetime.

Rating : 3/5
