New Moon, the highly anticipated sequel to Twilight, hit theatres yesterday, and the turn out was record breaking. This film built on Twilight, offering more dynamic and intense relationships, more humor and more exposed skin.
Several new boys joins the cast of New Moon, acting as the ever-shirtless Quileute tribe of werewolves. But most of all, New Moon shows Taylor Lautner, a.k.a Jacob, in a whole new light. He’s stronger, faster and so much more than a 16 year old boy should be. In the book, Jacob’s character was a little more pathetic, causing a drastic lead for Team Edward. But since Taylor Lautner’s physical transformation, I wouldn’t doubt if the lead shifted to Team Jacob.
Overall, the film had it’s slow moments, along with countless laugh-out-loud scenes. The audience’s response seemed to be a good one, so I’d say it’s well worth the ten dollar ticket.

Ghosts of Girlfriends Past takes the traditional concept of A Christmas Carol and adds a modern spin. Like Scrooge, Connor Mead (Matthew McConaughey) travels into the past, present and future, accompanied by three ghosts. And over the course of the film, he learns that if he doesn’t make a lifestyle change, he’ll die alone and unwanted. But unlike Scrooge, Connor’s biggest problem is centered around the countless women in his life, namely his first and only love, Jenny (Jennifer Garner).
This film is decent and entertaining, but easily forgettable.

I’m not going to lie, Aliens in the Attic looked a little silly in the previews. And it definitely is silly, but in a good way. It has more funny parts than I can list, particularly those when the cocky boyfriend, Ricky, is under the aliens’ control. This movie embodies the power of kids and how resourceful they can be. They can defeat of team of aliens without their parents even knowing about the invasion. That’s impressive stuff.
