So here's to starting fresh and actually posting on here more than once every year...
Went and saw Labor Day today, staring Josh Brolin and Kate Winslet. First I want to preface this saying that, of course, I read the book about 2 weeks ago. I wasn't expecting to like the book (or the movie for that matter), but I really enjoyed the book. It was well written, and pretty realistic. So, I had some high expectations for the movie - especially because Rose (Titanic reference of course) can do no wrong. The movie and the storyline itself were very accurate in terms of the book. However, the movie was just kind of ok. I'm giving it three stars, because I enjoyed it, but all of the emotions and acting just felt pretty surface level. I never felt the deep emotional attachment to the characters that I felt while reading the book. It was good for a one-time see, but it's not something I'll be jumping out of bed to buy on DVD/BluRay anytime soon.
Take it or Leave it, that's just my opinion.
You'll be hearing from me again soon, I'm sure!
