Movie of the Week

Anyone who knows me knows i watch a TON of movies. Thanks Blockbuster. I get 5 free rentals a week from work and i get the movies the week before they come out. I usually have at least one movie every week that I am newly obsessed with. My obsession fades then when i get a new favorite (or 2).

Well, this week I <3 Watching the Detectives. Its a smaller movie, with Cillian Murphy (love those blue eyes) and Lucy Liu. Its fun, light hearted, and I think its hilarious. I am watching it for the 2nd time and still find myself laughing at things. I do think, however, that I may be prone to liking it becuase Cillian's character owns a small, quirky video store, where all of his friends work and hang out, watching movies and talking about them. Slightly similar to what I do at work, except I work at a huge mind-numbing, chain, but the people I work with are awesome nonetheless.

The movie is my kind of humor and Lucy Liu plays a fun, crazy girl who likes to get all the adventure out of life that she can. I love it. The things she does for fun are awesome. I wish I was her.

I don't think this film is for everyone. As i have learned from working at a video store, very few have the same taste for movies that I do.

you are living the life i have always dreamed of - i always wanted to work at blockbuster so all i would do is watch movies for free - that is awesome! i just discovered netflix and i love it and it is my pace since i don't get as much time to watch movies as i want to. i just saw "the visitor" in theatres and "young@heart". both were really good.

love your doggy and kitty pictures. i need a picture of my animals on my blog too! my cat and yours look alike and i think they have equally bit#$y temperaments!
