Movie Review



Recommended Posts

If you haven't seen The Devil Wears Prada and need a good laugh, ante up for the matinee at least and check this one out.

Meryl Streep is an absolute RIOT - much, much better than her last comedy (Prime).

I loved that movie....Mr. Yoda saw it and seemed to like it enough; though I'm sure he wouldn't rank it in his top fave list!

There are a few lines from the movie that he still likes to quote though....cracks us up!

besides...it's good for your DH to see some chick flicks once in a while....it's payback for all those dull stupid movies they like to take us to!! LOL..

but...no, I don't really consider this movie a chick flick.

i dont think it's a guy movie, rather get a few of your girlfriends together, go see it and chat it up over dinner and drinks afterward! even my 74 yr old mom loved it!

I agree...probably not a guy movie - no car chases, no dynamite, no blood/gore, no sex, no nudity, no toilet humor. And it's all about clothes. Definitely not a guy movie.

If you've ever worked for a Nazi, though, this is your kind of movie. I have (worked for a Nazi), only she wasn't nearly as well dressed (or as pithy) as Meryl Streep. You know the Judge Judy show? You know how smug she is....how nasty and over-bearing and how she loves putting people down? Well, my ex-boss was a Gentile Judge Judy - even looked like her.

I guess Mr. Yoda is not the "typical" male then...since he enjoyed the movie. He must be a little more "advanced" than most males!! Not all guys *ducking the things being thrown at me* are mindless voids that only enjoy car chases and shooting scenes!

I enjoyed this movie too. Of course, when we pick movies, my husband usually takes me to chick flicks, while I usually pick action/adventure

We went to see a movie a few weeks ago, DH went to buy tickets (I thought we were seeing Click) and he comes back with the Lake House (we never see "mushy" movies together)......because he thought it would be good. Turns out he loved the movie, I didn't! We did see Click and it was pretty good. My daughter and I were going to go see Prada tomorrow, but it isn't showing so we'll be seeing John Tucker Must Die (my daughter is 15).

Oh, don't get me wrong....tho Mr. Yoda may be more evolved and enlightend than most men (THANK GOD!!) BUT he still loves his X-box games and Spiderman....but then again, that's what makes him him and why I love him so!!!!

If anyone has an odd sense of humor, then I highly recommend "Strangers With Candy". I do not recommend it if you are easily offended...because, well, it could easily offend.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
