Angus Thongs and Perfect Snogging
27 July 2008
OK, So me and a group of mates went to watch this movie, and i found it actually very funny. The film catches the right amount of embarrassment that Georgia faces all the time. For me i laughed and cringed at all the intended places, and would actually be pleased if another movie was coming out some time later.

Oh, and i have read this book, but it was like 4 years ago....so maybe thats why it wasn't such a disappointment's to me, because i couldn't remember what was actually in the book and what was being made up.

So basically if you haven't read the book at all or in a very long time, then you'll really enjoy watching it with a group of mates.

What A Girl Wants
26 October 2007
Warning: Spoilers
What A Girl Wants is a great family/teenage fairy tale film, about a Girl finding her self, and what she wants. Which in this case is the love of her non the wiser father (Colin Firth).

This film in my opinion is very well done. I couldn't think of anyone better to play Daphne then the awesomely hyper and sweet Amanda Bynes. She portrays her role very well, and Does greatly at adapting her father-daughter relationship, along with the great acting of Colin Firths of course. Along with this role she plays a very good 'American Teen Girl' very well, and the connection between her and actor Oliver James who plays sweet struggling singer Ian Wallace. Although admittedly Amanda Bynes Great Acting Skills is what supports her and Oliver James in these Girl/Guy scenes.

Best scenes have to be, Henry talking about the Chandelier with Daphne...a pretty sweet father/daughter moment.

The fashion show, were Daphne wins the crowd on pure confidence

At the beginning of the movie were she finds the groom of the wedding she and her mother are working at. She works out a way to resolve it by putting ice down his top then turning his struggle into a dance and saving the wedding.

When here and her father are eating and the pompous finance is watching them doing the exact some thing with there food.

Best lines

Henry Yes... it's ass numbing dull (?)

Henry "I don't give a flying fart in space", both done in his great British accent

Also when a stuck up girl asks her what college she is applying Daphne?

Noelle!

-What are you doing here? -I'm clearing the chicken cacciatore.

My God, that is so funny!

Guess what! I'm interning at Jenkins and Taylor...

before I go to Duke, prelaw.

What's next for you?

The dessert, a selection of sorbets.

No, where are you going to college?

That would be the University of the Undecided.

Is that in Ohio?

Undecided, Ohio.

Basically i love it. Very good film in my opinion!
