Movie Review -- "13 Going on 30"

It was so cute -- a really cute, feel good movie. Jennifer Garner did a really good job of playing a 13 yr. old who's suddenly 30. We liked the guy who plays the grown-up version of her boy friend too. I'd have to say two of the highlights of the film were the musical numbers to Thriller and to Love is a Battlefied. There were a lot of teenage and younger girls there, so you could hear sniffling in sad parts and cheering in good parts. At the end, people applauded, which is pretty unusual around here. I think all of us can identify with some of what she had to deal with growing up. And... I don't recall a single bit of profanity, no true violence, and no nudity!!! Just shows you can make a really entertaining movie without all that. Sassy, Sara would probably love it.

It looks like a cute movie from the previews on TV.

This is definitely on my list for Vegas.

We saw the trailers for it last night and it looks very funny. It will definitely be on our list of things to see.

We rented a movie for last night and Dh wanted to get "Master and Commander", but it was out. So instead we got "Something's Gotta Give". We both really enjoyed it. I could definintely watch it again.

I loved Something's Gotta' Give. We watched Lost in Translation on Moviebeam the other night. It had its moments, but was kind of weird. I think Sophia Coppola was trying to be too artsy.
