American Reunion comes back to all the American Pie characters we met a little more than a decade ago return to East Great Falls for their high-school reunion. In one long-overdue weekend, they will discover what has changed, who hasn’t and that time and distance can’t break the bonds of friendship. Jim, Michelle, Stifler, and their friends reunite in East Great Falls, Michigan for their high school reunion.
If you are looking for a good comedy to go see, this one, is a good choice. Plenty of funny scenes some of them are bringing back the nostalgic memories mostly from the first film. You will laugh from beginning to end, and none of the laughter or jokes were forced. All the characters have their own issues (too married, have kids, hate their jobs, hate their lifestyle, etc.) and the movie is kind of about them all resolving their over the course of a reunion weekend. It’s the American Pie which is most similar to the first one. All the old couples from high-school (Oz/Heather, Kevin/Vicky, Jim/Michelle) re-hash their past feelings. So all the best jokes and good comedy is back again!

It’s release on April 6, 2012 (Limited U.S. Theatrical) and the Screenwriter Chris Sparling (who wrote the screenplay of Buried) is back with a new thriller titled ATM. Much like the Buried concept, the movie ATM will primarily take place in one location, you nail it, in the vestibule of an Automated Teller Machine. The story centers on three co-workers who, on a routine stop at an ATM, unexpectedly end up in a desperate fight for their lives. Director David Brooks will helm the project. The cast includes Brian Geraghty, Josh Peck and Margarita Levieva.
The beginning is good and full of desperation with a splash of “Panic Room”. The performances were generally solid, the atmosphere was tense and the killer was relatively menacing. The characters are likable enough, some moments are pretty tense, and overall it’s decently constructed. However, you can be a little bit disappointed and frustrating at first, before it is remembered that most people are really like this. Hints of reality are much more horrifying than pure fiction. At the end, it has a psychological point of view and the main message is if you want to make any transaction in an Automated Teller Machine never park a mile away from the ATM despite it being the middle of the night in an empty parking lot because you will be in risk!

Hysteria is a romantic comedy with an accomplished cast led by Maggie Gyllenhaal, Hugh Dancy, Jonathan Pryce, Felicity Jones and Rupert Everett, that tells an untold tale of discovery – the surprising story of the birth of the electro-mechanical vibrator at the very peak of Victorian prudishness. It has a intriguing story plot even some dialogues are quite bored, their language is really elegant. Some kind of mockumentary on the real history of the vibrator but reveals the real sexual liberation as well so the main question is what is the main responsibility about medicine, hysteria, sexuality with the first electric vibrating massager? Then the main subject is something rarely discusses in public especially in London, 1880. The comedic pacing is refreshing, tasteful and impressive with Dalrymple, mainly with her socialist ideas but a big heart for keeping a community project. Hysteria was really well played and developed in each character so Tanya Wexler made a fun movie.

Adele’s New Single Out 2012
The woman who does not need a last name, Adele, has announced that her new single will be coming out this year. She stated “There will be a new song, probably coming out at the end of the year,” Adele stated at the French radio station NRJ. “But then it depends how quickly I write some other new songs.” She disappointed her fans by stating that her album will not be released until next year. “If I didn’t write my own songs, I’d be out next week with a new album,” the singer added. “I have to take time and live a little bit. There were a good two years between my first and second albums, so it’ll be the same this time.” Adele take your time, because there is no one like you!
True Happiness Comes When your 33
According to a recent study form the U.K. people reach the happiest point in their lives when their 33-years-old. At this age, people have a “can do” spirit, they are more confident, they are experienced, and sex is definitely better. “[That age] is enough time to have shaken off childhood naivety and the wild scheming of teen-aged years without losing the energy and enthusiasm of youth,” stated Donna Dawson, a psychologist. “Innocence has been lost, but our sense of reality is mixed with a strong sense of hope, a ‘can do’ spirit, and a healthy belief in our own talents and abilities.” James Franco, Jennifer Love Hewitt, and Rachel McAdams are some successful 33-year-olds.
