Dinner & A Movie: the Perfect Date

What a great marketing idea!  This is made those  for guys who have no idea what movie to see on Valentine’s Day.  No…fellas, not The Wolfman. Director Garry Marshall’s new movie released just in time for (yes) Valentine’s Day features an all-star cast. Julia Roberts,  Anne Hathaway , Jessica Alba,  Jessica Biel,  Bradley Cooper, Jennifer Garner, Shirley Maclaine, Ashton Kutcher, Topher Grace, Emma Roberts, Hector Elizondo,  Patrick Dempsey,  Jamie Foxx, Queen Latifah, Kathy Bates, Hector Elizondo, Taylor Lautner, George Lopez, and Taylor Swift. Wow! That is some line up.

The movie  follows the intertwining lives of these young beautiful people on Valentine’s Day. I will be … (sniffle…sniffle) alone this Valentine’s Day. But it doesn’t bother me…no really, it doesn’t. I like my alone time. I really do. Maybe, I will try to muster the courage to go  (alone) to see this movie this weekend.

This was a good year for Chick Flicks. Meryl Streep continues her comic reign in the delightful Julie & Julia and It’s Complicated. Sandra Bullock also had a good year (we won’t mention All About Steve) with The Blind Side and The Proposal. Disney gave us a Jazzy new Princess and Rob Marshall’s Nine feeds my need for musicals.
