- Directed by Mark Waters
- Starring Reese Witherspoon, Mark Ruffalo
- A romantic comedy about a medical intern, who had been in coma due to a car accident, and a desperate guy who rented her apartment. The reason I saw this movie is to kill time and did not expect to get anything much. Surprisingly, the movie turns out to be pleasing and fun. Both Reese Witherspoon and Mark Ruffalo are charming, sweet, and funny. The script is smart, although it is lousy at the end.
Since I retired from work in January 2005, watching movies in the cinema has been one of my favourite time-killers. This blog contains brief information and some comments of the movies I have seen.

The Family Stone
- Directed by Thomas Bezucha
- Starring Diane Keaton, Sarah Jessica Parker, Rachel McAdams, Claire Danes, Dermot Mulroney, Luke Wilson
- A story about a Christmas holiday gathering of a New England family. There are a lot of big-name actors and actresses who deliver fine performances. The only problem is the script.

The Emperor's Journey (aka March of the Penguins)
- Directed by Luc Jacquet
- An amazing French documentary film about the mating and breeding rituals of the emperor penguins in Antarctica. It is a story of love, responsibilities, survival and sacrifice -- the film that makes some of us shameful to be born human and yet cannot match the love and responsibilities of the penguins.
