Finding Neverland (2004)

Why no one brought Johnny Depp and Kate Winslet together before Finding Neverland is beyond me. These two are so great together and the entire cast is incredible. The children, especially Freddie Highmore (Charlie and The Chocolate Factory, August Rush), are incredible. There is nothing about this movie that doesn’t work.
Johnny and Kate are brilliant in their roles and Johnny is unbelievably gorgeous as always. I don’t know how that man can be so consistently edible (except for maybe at the end of The Libertine). I loved how Finding Neverland really took us into the mind of the man that gave us Peter Pan and paralleled it so well with his home life.
Twilight (2008)
I love Twilight and I don’t care who knows. I am shamelessly counting down the days until New Moon hits theaters, and so what? I am, in fact, a full grown woman who is obsessed with a teen franchise, but there is nothing at all wrong with losing yourself in a little fantasy every now and then and let’s face it, that’s what Twilight’s all about.
Bella and Edward have the kind of romance we all want for ourselves. It’s dramatic and enthralling. It’s the type of all encompassing love that doesn’t let anything stand in its way – not even blood-sucking vampires or jealous werewolves.
Twilight is a classic love story with a twist. Sure the books are better than the movie (a lot better) and some of the actors are a little awkward and uncomfortable, but Robert Pattinson… wow. So hot. I would… well, we won’t get into that here. There are other websites for that sort of talk.
