Movies Worth Watching

1. Mamma Mia
Loved this movie. I laughed and sang my way through it. Meryl Streep is awesome. If you are an ABBA fan (and who would not be?!) you gotta check this out. Very campy. First time I think I've seen women in "drag". Quite fun. Have yet to see the stage show - on my list.

2. Angels and Demons
Much much better job by Ron Howard at telling a story. Not true to the book - but then again, after the DaVinci Code stinker there was no way to go but up. And while I'm on the subject why are women characters so unbelievable? Not a great movie, but it is a fun way to spend a couple of hours. And it brought back memories of Roma.

3. Slumdog Millionaire
Am I the only one who did not love this movie? Cute yes. But worthy of the Oscar? Nope. But then again have not been a huge fan of Oscar winners anyway. I liked that it was an indie movie, that it had the sleeper effect of building momentum from word of mouth recommendations. But not worth the buzz in my opinion.

4. The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
Another hyped movie that I do not recommend. Okay, the plot is unusual and I love both Brad and Cate, but honestly did this hold your interest? Only reason I finished watching the movie is that I was strapped in at 30,000 feet in an aluminum can hurtling through space and time.

Any movies out there worth watching?
