The Holiday!!
It has been long since I sat after midnight and posted something. I just came back from this movie 'The Holiday', I kind of liked it and so this post is happening. Of late, I have been watching awful movies like the Return and Casino Royale (some claim this to be the best Bond movie ever!). Deja Vu and Turistas were ok, though they did not live up to my expectations. Today we decided to pick one between 'The Holiday' and 'Apocalypto'. We wanted to take it easy, so settled for the romantic comedy.
Though we did not have any expectations from the movie, it did live up to the basic expectations of a normal movie-goer. The story was a normal love story and more of bollywood types. It even had a scene where the hero and the heroine were running around the trees, only there was no song. The performances are what I think is the highlight of the movie. Kate Winslet and Cameron Diaz have acted extremely well and I would say they both look cute and adorable on the screen.
I'm hearing a lot of British english these days (a part of the cast in this movie are British) and I've started liking it :)
And one other reason for choosing this movie is that I'm actually going on a holiday to INDIA next week..wow! yeah, after 2 long years and I'm really excited about it and looking forward to meeting friends and family there!!
