Cinema trip to see 'The Wedding Video'

Last night I saw 'The Wedding Video' at the cinema with my friends. I didn't know much about it, I had only briefly glanced at the trailer (see the trailer here) however in all honesty, I was surprised at how good the film was!
Think 'The Hangover' and 'Bridemaids' and you will get a feel for what the film is like. The old 'wedding-goes-badly-wrong' film but with it's own unique feel.
The aspect I liked most was the fact that it was filmed by a non-professional, and this made some of the scenes very funny because it gave a very realistic impression of how differently people act on camera. Being interested in video-making myself, I found this particularly funny and interesting!
Despite the theme being done hundreds of times before, the story line was not as predictable or tedious as I would have expected and many of the sketches gave the audience genuine belly-laughs! (Although it has to be said, my biggest laugh came from the fact that my friend spilled popcorn all over the couple sitting in front of us, rather than a part in the film..!)
Perhaps the ending was a little cheesy for my liking, and some of the scenes dragged out a bit, but all in all it is definitely a film to recommend to anybody over the age of 13 (although it is rated 15!!!).

Short review of Inception

Okay...so I watched this rather unwillingly at a friend's house one evening. I wasn't overly keen at first because I knew it was a confusing movie and there were a lot of us watching it- I can be easily distracted at times - I knew this would confuse the plot even more for me. Having said this, I watched the film with 2 or 3 'experts' or 'fanatics' of the film. They explained everything to me as it was happening so I do have a basic idea* of the storyline.

*note a very, very basic idea

My initial thoughts were that it was an extremely clever movie, the plot was gripping and unique, and how they portrayed this abstract idea was interesting. Having said this, a lot of the main issues in the story were not highlighted (until a friend pointed them out to me). They were said in passing conversation by the characters so it didn't really occur to me what was happening. As the film progressed, however, I found that the plot was unravelling and made the occasional "oooohhhh, I get it now" comment when a previous situation was explained!

Overall, I would rate this film 7/10 for somebody my age. I would not recommend it to anyone younger but I think someone of higher intellect would possibly enjoy it more! I might try to watch it again soon and see whether I enjoy more the second time, as I know what is going on!
