Just an FYI....
I no longer update this blog, so I've gone back and deleted all the entries that aren't useful.
I don't want to delete this account entirely, because I've posted some reviews that might still be helpful and informative to people.
Additionally, I may still use this account for communities like yorku and ohnotheydidnt.

Cyrano de Bergerac: Review
So, my parents and I went on a little overnight trip to Stratford this weekend, whereapon I saw this show and thought it was brilliant. In fact, it is now officially my all-time favourite play. If anybody doesn't know the story, then a synopsis can naturally be found on Wikipedia. I haven't reviewed a show in a while, and have actually never ( Read more... ) -

I'm on pg. 136........
(Mostly critical) thoughts on Twilight so far:
- The preface is just confusing. Honestly, why have it there at all? All it does is create unrealistic expectations about the ending, which probably isn't that good anyway.
- Edward is only marginally attractive. And I've been fixated on my share of fictional men, believe me.
- All the spiel on how ( Read more... ) -
Finally...Sweeney Todd: The Movie
I ended up seeing it by myself as the friend I saw the tour with was busy, and another friend I wanted to bring with me couldn't go. Nobody cared that I was under 18, but that was probably because very few people there were seeing the movie to begin with.
- It wasn't as gore-y as I expected. True, it showed Sweeney killing a lot of people, but that ( Read more... ) -
