My Movie Watching Profile

GENDER: Female
FAVORITE GENRE: Horror, Suspense, Drama, Action, and Comedy in that order.
WHEN WATCHING MOVIES I:
Always turn on English Subtitles.-It's amazing how much dialogue you miss just because the actor is speaking too low or background action.
Want to be entertained, and even better if I am moved.
Cry if it's sad or has a really happy ending.
Like to be scared.
Am not afraid of watching a horror flick alone in the dark.
Have a tendency to get confused by overly intricate plots.
Enjoy eating snacks.
ABOUT ME:
I have always loved going to the movies and watching movies at home but I really started getting into even more when I first started living alone. It was a cheap and easy form of home entertainment for me. I joined Blockbuster Online so that I could watch a lot of movies without breaking the bank. This has fueled my joy of movie watching and enabled me to expand my selections to include a lot of independent and foreign films that a lot of people have never heard of instead of just the typical Blockbuster movies.

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time

Starring:  Jake Gyllenhaal, Gemma Arterton
Action/Adventure (2010)

Soon after invading a nearby city Dasdan (Gyllenhaal) is accused of murdering his father.  Forced to run, princess Tamina (Arterton) follows along as she discovers that Dasdan holds a dagger that holds incredible powers.  This dagger was taken during the invasion of her city and it's up to her to keep it out of the wrong hands or else risk destruction of the world as they know it.  Dasdan must now not only prove his innocence but keep the sands of time that give the dagger it's unique powers safe from the greedy man who covets it.
  • Gyllenhaal obviously does not appear to be Persian by any stretch of the imagination but it's a movie so you just gotta roll with it.
  • Arterton is every bit as beautiful as her character Tamina is supposed to be.  Excellent casting there. 
  • There is plenty of action and adventure and a few laughs as well.  There were no slow moments and the story moved along nicely.
