When Harry Met Sally (film review)

Film: When Harry Met Sally
Year: 1989
Genre: Comedy, drama, romance
Starring: Billy Crystal, Meg Ryan, Carrie Fisher
About: Harry and Sally have known each other for years, and are very good friends, but they fear sex would ruin the friendship.

 My Review:
Having never seen When Harry Met Sally before even though it is one of the most popular rom-com movies around I decided I would check it out and finally see if it is as good as everyone was making it out to be.

The film is about two people named Harry and Sally who end up going to New York together and then go their separate ways, however after many years they run into each other and start to become friends. As they do and both see start seeing other people they realise that they both love each other but refuse to tell each other.

I thought this film was good in the way that it had between scenes old couples saying how they had found their love at first sight and sharing their stories, this is something that I found rather adorable. I also thought it was very fitting with the film as it goes alongside how Harry and Sally feel about each other. I also liked the way that it showed how Harry and Sally were not ready for each other romantically for a long time showing that sometimes it takes a bit longer to be with the one you are meant to be with however it will happen if it is meant to.

I would recommend this  movie to those who like romance films and want something which seems a lot more real than a lot of romance films you are able to see. This is a film which has aged well and deserves to still be very well known.

My Rating: 4/5

I Am Wrath (film review) *contains spoilers*

Film: I Am Wrath Year: 2016 Genre: Action, Crime, Drama Directed By: Chuck Russell Starring: John Travolta, Christopher Meloni, Amanda Schull About:  A man is out for justice after a group of corrupt police officers are unable to catch his wife's killer. Trailer:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vwiQCDpYzjE My Review: When my mum came home with this movie I had no idea what to expect as I had never heard of it before but liking a lot of movies with John Travolta I had high hopes that I would enjoy it. This film did surprise me a lot and something in which I enjoyed a lot more than I had expected. Starting I Am Wrath with Stanley's wife dying and how he went out for revenge made me think that this was somewhat based off of a John Wick movie, however as a fan of the trilogy this didn't bother me at all. Showing how the police and people higher up didn't care about who killed his wife and even let the killer go as he was part of a gang in which the police wer...

However, when one of the students gets obsessed with him she will do anything to be with him including secluding him from everyone else.

Fred Claus (film review) *contains spoilers*

Film:  Fred Claus Year:  2007 Genre:  Comedy, Family, Fantasy Directed By:  David Dobkin Starring:  Vince Vaughn, Paul Giamatti, Elizabeth Banks About:  Fred Claus, Santa's bitter older brother, is forced to move to the North Pole to help Santa and the elves prepare for Christmas in exchange for cash. Trailer:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VzXjtxZaGS8 My Review: Over the Christmas period I decided to watch some films that I hadn't previously seen before and one of those being  Fred Claus  I thought that this was different to other Christmas movies as it focus' on Santa's brother rather than on Santa himself but also on how to keep Christmas alive and not have it closed down. By having Vince Vaughn as the main character in this I had good expectations for this movie as I generally enjoy everything in which I have seen him in. I thought that  Fred Claus  was good in how it showed how Nicholas became a saint and how h...
