This fast paced movie depicting the timeless story of Sherlock Holmes is wonderfully done. It is fun to watch and thought provoking to those in the audience trying to follow all the clues that Holmes finds. The dialouge between Holmes and Watson is hilarious and their relationship is strong even when in disagreement. It is worth seeing this version of the timeless story.

Remember Me (2010) - Rated 27 Aug 2010

Robert Pattinson's acting was surprisingly amazing and completely different from his former roles. The two main characters both have complicated and difficult pasts that eventually attracts them to one another. However the beginning and ending were devestating and somewhat took away from the movie. Although the beginning and ending are not the most uplifting, the relationships that were formed were reassuring that love can prevail.

WALL·E (2008) - Rated 27 Aug 2010

Pixar's movie Wall-E was captivating, both visually and emotionally. Although some might disagree with the political stand made regarding the environmental issues our country faces today, I believe they provided the facts with a positive outlook on the situation. The relationship that evolves between Wall-E and Eve is touching. The timeless love story captures all audiences without the need for dialogue, but through social interaction which is also greatly valued in life. It's a must-see movie.
