It's a MUST SEE for everyone.

I can't beleive it took me this long to see it.

Jerry (Benicio Del Toro) is a recoverring heroin addict and this lifestyle has always cause Audrey to hate him, however, in her time of need it seems that his presence is one of the few things holding her together.

ACTING: 6.5/7
Halle Berry and Benicio Del Toro are both SO DAMN BRILLIANT!
There isn't even anything to say about how good they are. Special mentions are also going to have to go to Micah Berry and Alexis Llewellyn who played Audrey's children.


OVERALL: 6.5/7


You simply HAVE TO see this movie!
Everybody does!

STORY: 3.5/7
I was actually quite unimpressed with this movie. It was enjoyable to watch, but it didn't seem to have the intelligence of M Night Shyamalan's previous work.

ACTING: 4/7
Zooey Deschanel is totally brilliant. I love her! Marky Mark was pretty good in this role, but occasionally got extremely "cute" when trying to be frightened, which was just funny.

GORE RATING: 3/7
I know this isn't REALLY a horror but it did have some TINY amounts of gore in it.


OVERALL: 3.5/7

ha ha ha ha ha - Get Carried away.

STORY: 5.5/7
The story of the movie basically follows on from the television series. It takes some very predictable twists, but is still extremely enjoyable to watch.

ACTING: 6/7
These women have lived the lives of these characters for YEARS, so of course they are going to be brilliant as they step back into the stilettos. However, Jennifer Hudson was less than perfect as Louise, Carrie's new assistant.

SOUND / SCORE: 4.5/7
Fergie. 'Nuff said ? Ha ha ha
In all honesty, the soundtrack for this movie was quite enjoyable.

This movie had SO MUCH hype that i was already a little bit dissapointed with it when i saw it.

STORY: 4/7
The movie had a pretty interesting story which had every character intertwined and things. I just don't think the story really went anywhere all that interesting.

ACTING: 4/7
John Malkovich was quite good in his role, kind of creepy and disturbed, but funny at the same time. Everyone else was a bit annoying though. George Clooney and Brad Pitt both seem to be famous purely for being Geroge Clooney and Brad Pitt. My stand out for this movie is Tilda Swinton who rocks my face off constantly.

SOUND / SCORE: 5.5/7
The score for this movie is probably the ONLY thing that kept me watching. It was big and dramatic with some bold movements. Very nice.
