Young Adult

2011 - Age Rating 15 - Comedy/Drama - 94mins
✰ - 1 and a half stars
This film was nothing to how I was expecting. I feel it is very slow to start and doesn't really get going. There is a few comical moments, which are laugh worthy, but a film about everyday life of a woman with an average life but with a twist of trying to steal someones husband. Young adult was a little too everyday life for my taste.


21 Jump Street

2012 - Age rating 15 - Action/Comedy/Crime - 109mins
 - 5 Stars
I loved this film, it had everything for me - Laughter, Violence and Life. 
The usual type American high schools in films, the eye candy for most woman, the geek, coppers.
This film is about two school enemies both becoming police officers and being partnered together on a job. Very funny with lots of Laughs but also a lot of drugs and violence. I would highly recommend this film!


The Amazing Spider-Man in 3D

2012 - Age rating 12A - Action/Fantasy/Thriller - 136mins
  - 4 Stars
I think I really enjoyed this film because it was nothing to what I was expecting at all. There is a big debate about why this was released and which Spider-man films are better. There is no Spider-man VS The Amazing Spider-man debate for me, as they are both VERY different films, with both very different actors.
The Amazing Spider-man is more about the background and life of Peter played by Andrew Garfield, I feel a lot less action than I had imagined and a lot more laughter. Worth a watch.


Ted

2012 - Age rating 15 - Comedy/Fantasy - 106mins
  - 3 Stars
Really sad to say this film was disappointing to me. Nothing how it was portrayed. A lot of great features and things shown in the trailer were not in the film. Only small things but it made a huge impact.
This film is about a little boy whose Christmas wish came true and his bear came to life, it shows moments of affection and a lot of drugs and violence. Definitely a romance film and I feel it was more about John's life than Ted's. Lots of humour. 
I may have been trying to compare it to Family Guy as it was created by the same person. It included most of the cast from Family Guy too.
Good film but nothing special in my opinion.
