A Note...

... to our loyal readers.

Guy is in Sweden, currently, and Girl is in Canada. No, we did not split up, as one of you has commented, but we do come from different sides of the world and this tends to happen when you are stupid enough to get involved in a long distance relationship.

So! To those of you who are expecting this website to be kept up to date on a regular basis (even after the fact that this has never happened so far), you will be disappointed.

But! We will try to watch the same movies, and we will try to write reviews about them at some point, then try to post those reviews on a semi-timely basis... maybe.

Some of you may call this a stilted promise, but we just call it reality. Unlike Lindsay Lohan, we have our feet planted firmly in it.

DEAR JOHN


Guy’s what is Lasse doing?


As a swede I have to support our talent that has made it overseas. Lasse Hallstrom is one of those people. He did a great job with “The Cider House Rules” and “Chocolate”. Ever since then the quality of his movies have steadily decreased and have come to an all time low.


To make this quick. “Dear John” is like “The Notebook”. You know boy meets girl and all that stuff. Here they just tried to cram in as much heartbreak as they could within 90 minutes. I mean, a dad that’s autistic, separation by war duty, cancer, sick kids and a bunch of other bullshit.


Guy’s Rating: Don’t bother. This is stupidity at its worst.



Girl’s bah!


No, thank you! And saying it is like The Notebook is an insult to one of the best romantic dramas I’ve ever seen. Shame on you, Guy.


The only good thing about this movie was the father, played by Richard Jenkins. His part was small, but well played and he was in the only moment that truly played on my heartstrings instead of just the annoyed ones.


Girls’ Rating: Avoid. There are way better romantic dramas out there without Channing Tatum.
