Anyway, the reason I am telling you (I only have one follower, thank you) that I watch movies is because my sister had a genius suggestion to review the movies I watch. Warning: I watch really trashy, bad movies, but you're lying if you say that you don't like to watch these movies too.
So, my first movie will be Footloose, the new one. I have seen the old one (twice) and I have seen the new one, now three times. In fact, I am currently writing this post as I am watching it again.
**Spoilers ahead** (but seriously, knowing what happens really doesn't ruin the movie at all).
Plot: Pay attention now because the plot is a little tricky. Imagine a town where everybody seems to be very religious and the only thing those hoodlum tweens want to do is dance, but they can't! The teenagers in this town are rebels, breaking da law... that says they can't dance. There are no school dances, which to me really shouldn't matter. I only went to one of my school dances and I didn't even want to go to prom. So, these kids sneak out on Friday nights and go crazy...dancing. I mean, this movie is incredibly unrealistic, but whatever you deal.
Characters: There is the rebellious boy from Boston, with his accent, coifed hair and white t-shirts. He strolls on in and the preacher knows he is clearly here to cause some trouble. Little does the preacher know, however, that his own daughter is off there shaking her little booty (she is played by Julianne Hough so she is in fact very "little"). I am never for low-rise jean shorts/pants/skirt with a crop top, but that seems to be the only thing that this girl has in her closet. Very interesting because you would think her preacher father would not allow her to buy these clothes, but I'm guessing she snuck out one night before she went dancing to some store and bought them, just a guess. Also, her hair seems to always be in a bump it and her eyes are like way too blue.
The worst though is her dress for the dance at the end of the movie, like it is so hideous. It hits right above the knee, which I learned in middle school it really a horrible look (see below), and pink and has these flowy parts. Just all around horrible. She also has her ex boyfriend who looks like he is about 15 years older than her and causes a lot of trouble. One time she goes crazy and starts hitting his car with a pole. The only good character is Wren's (the guy from Boston) friend who is dorky and the only somewhat funny character in the movie.
(This is me in middle school. I like to think of it as an optical illusion - is it a girl or a middle school boy? I mean, I have a nice belly and some moobs. The reason I am showing this picture is to demonstrate the length of her hideous dress, which clearly should not ever be used. I don't look like this anymore.)
I don't really know what other parts there are to a movie review, but I will look some other stuff up so that next time I write one I have more to say. The lines in this movie are incredibly cliche and I realized I really didn't like the movie, but I will most likely watch it again. It is the type of movie that you watch by yourself, somewhat like while you're watching it, hope nobody comes in, if they do you start making fun of it so that you don't feel so uncomfortable. I seem to watch these types of movies a lot.
