5 Cute Films to watch this weekend

By
With this long Festive weekend on, I am sure a lot of you have great plans for travelling or partying. What about homebodies like me who love to spend their holidays at the comfort of their homes? Well, what's better to watch some cute movies! Here is a list of such happy films that will guarantee to make everyone cheerful. 

1. The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants:
4 friends travel to different places, apart from each other and as a means to stay connected they pass on a pair of jeans, that strangely fit perfectly for everyone irrespective of their sizes. This 2005 film is hilarious in most parts and captures the feelings of teenage girls nonchalantly across every frame: their sorrow, their first love, their sweet little moments that they share innocently with each other. This film is so entertaining overall.



2. Uptown Girls: A happy go lucky young girl, who does not take life seriously gets a tough task of babysitting a control-freak 8 year old. It's so much fun to watch Brittany Murphy and Dakota Fannings' comedic moments together and their strong bond in spite of the polar difference in their age and character. A must-watch for some good time. 


3. Never Been Kissed: A young copy editor gets an assignment to go undercover and enroll as a student in a high school. The insecure  Josie Gellar, played flawlessly by Drew Barrymore restarts high school and almost relives her previous high school experience of getting bullied and humiliated by "so-called" popular crowds of the class. But this time she is smarter and has help. 


4. 27 Dresses: A woman, Jane ( Katheine Heigl) has been a bridesmaid 27 times and has a crush on her boss. However, her clever younger sister catches the fancy of the boss and almost gets engaged to him. Meanwhile, Jade starts a friendship with a junior journalist Kevin, who is making a story on "Perennial Bridesmaid", unaware to Jane. The film is very sweet and Katherine Heigl is good overall. However Malin Akerman as Tess, her younger sister is awesome. 



5. Confessions of a Shopaholic: A young woman is addicted to shopping. She wants everything Uber cool in life, from the latest fashion to the coolest job in town. She gets another "not so cool job" accidentally and interestingly becomes her Editor's favourite. But her shopping impulses makes her go bankrupt and under huge debt. How she recovers from that state, with the help of her friends and boss, is the story about. Isla Fisher, as Rebecca the lead character tickles some funny bones.

A couple of days back I watched a film, only to get a headache and I forgot its name too. But still, I watched it, some people won't change. Will they? Like nations in continuous wars and internal feuds -God knows what they get out of it. War has not done good for anyone ever. While their purpose is best known to them, my purpose as a cinema lover is to create a list of films that cover topics of Communal/Civil war and internal feuds:   1. The Killing Fields: I had no idea about the history of Cambodia, till I watched this 1984 film, during my mid-twenties. A nation that was absolutely devastated as a result of the killing of thousands of its citizens under the bloodthirsty Khmer Rouge reign - Killing Fields covered this history through the pen of a New York Times journalist and his Cambodian associate. The movie is difficult to watch due to the depiction of the horrid nature of the brutality that innocent people had to go through. Pran, the Cambodian journalist had to endeav...

Mushy Mushrooms, Mini Macaroons & 5 Whodunnit Murder Mysteries to Watch on My Breakfast Plate

As the mother of a fourth-grade student, my mornings start at 5:30 a.m. daily. Making breakfast and setting up lunchboxes keep me occupied during those hours and since I like to keep it simple for breakfasts, they generally get quite boring, with either bread toasts or chapattis. (common story of a lot of moms). Sometimes our wishes can go to an extravaganza and the longing for a due break with a lavish breakfast consisting of some creamy- buttery mushy mushrooms sprinkled with roasted garlic, some berry-flavoured mini macaroons and to top it all a thrilling, chilling old-fashioned Whodunnit Murder Mystery Movie playing on TV just makes things perfect. Sounds like quite a plateful right? Since we have already made a grand plan of how my breakfast plate is going to look, let's narrow down the list of Murder Mystery movies that can be included in my watchlist. 1. Knives Out (2019): Imagine digging your fork into a plateful of yummy creamy mushrooms, tuning into Daniel...

5 Dumb Movies that are Secretly Clever

I have always avoided films like "Drunken Master" and other movies that begin and end with a fight. The same goes for mindless action films too. However, there are a few movies that I have watched that may seem incredibly foolish and dumb but if you manage to watch those you will realise they are quite clever. So, here is my list of 5 Dumb Movies that are Secretly Clever. 1. Tucker and Dale vs. Evil: When 2 worthless friends go for a vacation, their adventures turn into a disastrous misadventure and a massacre due to misunderstandings and unfortunate turn of events. This movie is gory, bloody and yet stupidly hilarious. The execution style is of a slapstick comedy with the chills and thrills of a gory slasher, making it a unique dark comedy. How some people's false assumptions about 2 people turn into a nightmare for both parties is the main story behind this goofy massacre. 2. One Cut of the Dead: In the beginning this film looks like a low-budget mindless zombie flick, ...
