How to be Single (movie review)

  When I saw the posters up of this movie I wanted to go.  I enjoy Rebel Wilson and couldn't wait to see it.  Little did I know I would actually be accompanied by my husband to this chick flick.

  How to be Single runs for 1 hour and 50 minutes with an R rating.  A show stopping cast to include Rebel Wilson, Dakota Johnson, Leslie Mann and Alison Brie.  All four women make their own statement in the movie.

  This movie follows all the women on different paths of their declared independence, desperately seeking, career woman and happily single.  Some moments are funny than others.  Good times just hanging with your girlfriend.  Discovering a new place with a new found friend.

  This movie allows us to be envious of the single ladies doing there thing as well as appreciate our married days.  Not all days are good.  Noone likes to be dumped, or go through a variety of men to find the right one or not find one at all.  However this movie brings light to make the most of what you have.  Take full advantage of the present time; no matter what part of life your in.

  Some points in the movie seemed pointless and could have been left out but I did appreciate the follow through from aspirations to the overall idea that it is ok to be single.  No pressure, no stress.  Living single, being single has its benefits just like anything else.

  I enjoyed this movie and might even view it again when it's made available on dvd.  This movie does follow through with laughs as promised and it definitely made a nice chick flick for the Valentine's Day weekend.

Now Showing Sisters (maybe a spoiler)

  I managed to squeeze in one more movie for 2015!  I saw Sisters always pushing the budget envelope I went during matinee times.  Matinees are anything before 5pm I think and the price is just $5.00.

  Sisters is rated R and runs for 118 minutes.  I can not express with the producers and particular actresses: Tina Fey and Amy Poehler language, sex, drugs and innuendos are throughout the whole movie.  They brought the movie to life and kept the comedy flowing through the whole movie.


  Two sisters on a mission to keep their childhood home that their parents have sold to move into a condo to downsize.  They will do anything to keep it and work quite nicely as a team on the battlefront.  As they pack up their room they have a 1980's flashback.  They eventually decide a party is where it's at to give the house a final send off and allow the shy 2nd sister to have a fling in her childhood home.

  Keep an eye out for a few more celebrity appearances.  There is a plot to the movie and a lot of comedy at every turn.  You will laugh, laugh some more and reminisce of your childhood.  You might catch a poster from your childhood wall, an outfit or a toy!

  I am please with this movie and glad I finished off 2015 with this selection.  I will happily rent this when it comes out which proves how good it was if I will watch it again! Credits include some funny outtakes as well.

  Bring on 2016 and let's see what's playing! I already have my eye on a couple in January.  My children do too so I may be able to give you a review of all types of movies.

Hints: a boy, a forest, a bear and some outlaws.
