This summer I saw a lot of movies. I would go through each of them, but I don’t think there is enough time in the day. Here’s how I ranked them:
- Katy Perry: Part of Me
- Magic Mike
- Marigold Hotel
- Hit and Run
- Snow White and the Huntsman
- The Avengers
- Sparkle
- Rock of Ages
- Moonrise Kingdom
- To Rome With Love
- Hope Springs
- Ted
- The Campaign
- Men in Black 3
I really liked the Katy Perry movie which I realize is kind of random. I do, however, love a good concert, and that movie was her concert with the added bonus of her dramatic personal life. I found it interesting, entertaining, and inspiring because she is such a strong person.
Another notable good one was the Marigold Hotel movie. It was a little slow, but good none the less. And Hit and Run was an unexpected witty comedy for me.
My disappointments were The Campaign and Ted (I wasn’t expecting much from MIB3). I thought they were both funny but not really my humor. I might be older than I thought. And Hope Springs was a lot more old people sex talk than I was expecting. Oops.
The movie I’m looking forward to this fall is Pitch Perfect.
What were your favorites or least favorites from the summer?
I have to appreciate that this is a really interesting list, even if I don’t agree with all of it. The best movie I saw this summer would have to be Safety Not Guaranteed, if you haven’t had a chance to see that one I would highly recommend it.
I think I need to see some more movies!
