I'm just about on Christmas break so I decided to watch three movies yesterday. The first was Eat Pray Love. I admit, I didn't read the book, so I wasn't all that excited about the movie release and sort of purposefully missed it in theaters. I'm sure the book has more story line that the movie did, but just judging the movie, it fell a little flat for me. I loved the scenery though. It made me want to go to Italy and get real fat on pasta. That part was great. It was beautifully shot, and Javier Bardem only made it better. But on the whole, it was just ok for me. I didn't really connect with the main character, at least in the movie, she is just so totally what is wrong with girls today. Insecure and dependent and incapable of making healthy decisions even through the end of the movie a man has to tell her its ok to be in love. I just felt a little annoyed the whole time. Woman up, you know? But not an uninteresting movie and lovely to watch if you're in the mood for a light bit of entertainment.
