she who has been: making a movie review :D

I watched the trailer of "Let me in", a vampire romance [??], Swedish-remake-in-Hollywood film.

This is my first review so, I'm not really sure if I'm doing it correctly hehehe. Anyways, I own this blog and I wrote these words so, I don't care. Actually, one of my "pets" mentioned it to me earlier and  I got interested, searched the net and watched the trailer for many gruesome times. I even searched for the written story. *sigh!

Anyways, like old vampire-human movies, Let Me In  was dark, meaning almost 90% of shots were taken at night. It has human guardian as usual and with a slight touch of romance like the others but the twist is, the main protagonist are children.

The now-adult-guardian takes care of the needs of his forever-young-vampire, posting as his father and hunting/killing food for her. The forever young vampire  met the boy-next-door who would be her next guardian. When the now-adult-guardian found it, he asked the forever-young-vampire to stop seeing the boy-next-door but of course, she didn't listen.

    

While hunting for food, the now-adult-guardian found himself trapped with the supposedly-dinner of his mistress. He ended up washing his face with acid so people won't know his connection to the forever-young-vampire [love?].

I already know what will happen at the end though I prefer not to finish here so, I won 't spoil the fun.

Anyhow, here's my rating:

1 - lowest and 5 - highest with all the why's.

STORY: 3

Some books say that vampires can't enter your house unless the owner or one of the owners invite them in. I've seen it in this movie for the first time. I'm  not sure to other vampire movies though.

ACTORS: 3 

The forever-young-vampire, Abby (Chloe Moretz also from the movie Kiss-ass) and the blood-effect doesn't work on well especially when she and  the-boy-next-door, Owen (Kodi Smit-McPhee) are together.

POSTER: 4

I like their main poster though. The girl looks so vulnerable and needs protection in anyways or forms.

OTHERS:

Richard Jenkins as the-now-adult-guardian 

Dylan Minnette as the-boy-next-door's tormentor

Elias Koteas as the-detective

Ritchie Coster as the-I-will-kill-you-because-you-hit-my-bro kid

MORE:
 RUNNING TIME: 116minutes
OPENS ON: not sure

She who has been: weeping

... for her lost aunt.

Yes, my only biological aunt from my father's side  passed away early this  month, September 1st. I received a message from my father, Thursday morning [5 - 5:30 AM]. He told me that he was in my grannies home then. 

My sisters and I, baby included, went  to gram ma, on Saturday morning. Well, a bit late because I woke up late so sue  me! Aileen, arrived there early and us  at around 6PM. 

Funeral  happened the next day, Sunday. My aunt and uncles, together with my cousins went home early, maybe an hour after lunch.  Us, went a bit late, maybe a couple of hours later. We took a rest first. I took a bus, the others hitched a cab. After arriving home, I took a shower because I felt so muddy and sweaty [grrrr, though I'm not literally muddy and sweaty]. Also, I couldn't sleep well if I wont clean.

she who has been: anticipating

...many things next year.

I have been preparing my account for things that I would buy next year.

I'll post my new year's list here before the  year ends, promise. 

Anyways, I 'm also making plans for before this month ends.

Planning.  I'm really good at planning for most often that not, I'm having difficulties executing those plans when the time comes.  Why? I dunno. Maybe, my excitement already runs off a day or two  before. 

Well, I'm hoping for the best this time. 

cross fingers~!

She who has been: reading

..overwhelming greetings.

I was really surprised when I read my first comment at  travel buddy. I thought, it's just like it, a site to find your buddy if you're traveling solo. When I answer back to those greetings, I was more surprised because they answered back, welcoming me more.

Isn't that amazing?

I mean, people  from half way around the world, welcoming me and encouraging me to be active in their overwhelming community. Who wouldn't answer back..

I'm sure going to enjoy my  travels with them.

she who has been: thinking

..of traveling again.

I met some friends on Saturday afternoon at SM-Makati. New found friends actually, and we talked about what else, traveling :D

Hmmm this  is my second travel-buddy account. Well, I can't remember my first one honestly since I wasn't serious about looking for travel buddies then and I was a bit skeptic in meeting strangers.
Anyways, let's what would happen here. Hoping  no one would bite me bang! hahaha
