The Kissing Booth (film review)

Film: The Kissing Booth
Year: 2018
Genre: Romance, Comedy, Rom-Com
Starring: Joey King, Joel Courtney, Jacob Elordi
About: A high school student is forced to confront her secret crush at a kissing booth

 My Review: 
Seeing a new Netflix rom-com I couldn't resist giving this a watch and I couldn't be more happy that I did.

This film is about a girl called Elle who has had a crush on her best friends brother since she was six. However when they turn into teenagers and they end up kissing at a kissing booth everything changes.

I thought this would only be an average watch when I put this movie on however found myself loving it and couldn't stop smiling throughout it. I thought the teenage situations were rather relate-able and that this film had really good acting from the actors which helped to make this such a good watch. I genuinely can not fault this at all and from finding out that it is based upon a book of the same title have to give it a watch. This film was funny, made me close to tears and really warmed my heart. I wanted so much more of it and can honestly say it is now one of my favourite teenage rom-coms!

I would recommend this movie to those who like rom-com movies and teenage girls as well. Really great film which really surprised me. 

My Rating: 5/5

Trailer:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4F3Sn-Xzzo My Review: Wanting a style of film I don't usually watch but do enjoy I decided to watch the stalker movie that is My Teacher, My Obsession  which is based on an English teacher who starts at a new school. However, when one of the students gets obsessed with him she will do anything to be with him including secluding him from everyone else.

As a result of this she gets put in an isolation in her own mind for a year due to the government wanting to use it on prisoners which is only an hour in the real world. ...

Primer (film review)

Film: Primer Year: 2004 Genre: Drama, Sci-fi, Thriller Directed By: Shane Carruth Starring: Shane Carruth, David Sullivan, Casey Gooden About:  Four friends/fledgling entrepreneurs, knowing that there's something bigger and more innovative than the different error-checking devices they've built, wrestle over their new invention. Trailer:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3nj5MMURCm8 My Review: Having been requested to watch Primer for my blog I gave it a watch and after seeing what the film was about I was rather interested in this movie. However, felt that this film did not meet my expectations at all. The film is about two men who are friends and make a machine which seems a little like Schrodinger's cat and will the person survive within the box until it is opened? However, as it leads to time travel the men's relationship becomes strained. I thought that this film had a brilliant premise and wondered what would happen within the experiment. As it was ...
