Hi guys,
as you know I've recently had exams so obviously I've been revising for those. But now I haven't, so it's time to binge watch everything I wanted to before going into these exams.
I wanted to start off these movie reviews by reviewing a film I have really wanted to watch. It's a romantic comedy called 'Someone Great'. However, it is not your typical 'rom-com', while it is funny it's juxtaposed with the grief of going through a breakup.
'Someone Great' is a typically girly movie, set in New York, and focuses on an aspiring music journalist (Jenny's) transition as she has been accepted at 'Rolling Stones' magazine and has to move to San Fransisco, as the job is there. Unfortunately, this causes her 9 -year relationship to end, which is truly heartbreaking to watch as we as the audience get to experience the trails and tribulations within the relationship.
Hint; certain songs and moments trigger her memories off, so watch out for those.
While we as the audience get to experience her relationship, there are two other subplots which are also included within the main plot; surrounding her two friends Erin and Blair. I will not spoil this for you as I truly urge you to watch it.
The wardrobe, cinematography and soundtracks which are used within the movie are basically a millennial's dream come true. Plus 'Someone Great' stars 3 amazing female actors: Gina Rodriguez (Jenny), Brittany Snow (Blair) and DeWanda Wise (Erin).
While the movie does not end on a typical 'rom-com' happy ending, Jenny's silique is definitely 'food for thought'. This movie is not about finding 'the one', but I personally think it is about growing up and feeling comfortable in your own skin without having a significant other beside you.
Hopefully you'll watch it, or you have already viewed it. In the comments let me know your thoughts and favourite moments within the movie.
Until next time...
