This is It ... review

Um ... I liked it and I'd see it again.

"Let it simmer"

I cried

today while watching this movie:

and I hate dogs.

Remember this post?

Here is my quick movie review:

I liked this movie. It wasn't what I expected - which was a romantic comedy with a dog in the mix. Owen Wilson did a great job playing a family guy and not a funny guy. Kathleen Turner should be more picky about the parts she accepts (this movie and playing Chandler's dad). In fact, maybe she should quit the business altogether so we can remember her as Peggy Sue and the romantic novelist in Romancing the Stone and the Jewel of the Nile. OK so I liked the movie - there were some parts where I wanted to gag because I really think dogs are gross. It made me cry. I even entertained the idea of owning a dog but that was for like one second. I gained a better understanding about why people love their pets so much. I can now be more sympathetic although I don't ever think I will reach the day when I will be empathetic.

while other nephews watched on the street down below. One little sister (Lindsy) loved the parade and another little sister (Lacy) hated it so she joined us upstairs for most of it.
