I was able to see the world premiere of Beginners at the Toronto International Film Festival this weekend, and it completely took me by surprise. It was a bit of a last minute pick, and it has been my favourite film so far, and probably one of my favourite films in general. To be simple, I will just say that this film is about life and the emotions and experiences that we all go through within it. Christopher Plummer plays a 75 year old man who after the death of his wife is finally able to explore his homosexuality, and we see him come to life through this experience. It is not only about him, but mainly about his son played by Ewan McGregor, whose relationships with both his mother and father shape him as a person. These relationships and his own romantic relationships make up the core of his character, and it is through love, loss and discovery that the three main characters display an authentic view of humanity. It is an original film, and requires a certain audience, but I recommend that everyone should see this true gem.

Post Grad is obviously not the greatest movie out there. It's not going to win any awards, or be loved by the critics. However, it is still a cute movie that allows you to escape for an hour and forty minutes. It has some really funny scenes, and has moral lessons to teach. It's not being received very well and I understand why. It's just a light, fluffy, little movie more suitable for the younger ages. I admit, it could have been better but I wasn't expecting much from the beginning. It was simply a fun little comedy, and one that I'm sure many people can relate to. I didn't find Alexis Bledel annoying. She gave the role all it needed. Her love interest Zach Gilford, was cute and did a decent job. Michael Keaton was the funniest character hands down, and the rest of Bledel's family offered much of the comedy in the film. In all, it's an enjoyable film. I would recommend renting it though, it's not really a theatre-worthy film.

I find it disappointing that there is no 0 on the 1-10 scale.This is the worst movie i have seen.Not only is it gory beyond belief, but has no story line and leaves you with many questions that would have put the movie together.The beginning with the opening credits and the girl supposedly being chased through a hall, with blood all over her was disturbing and unrelated-unless she was Mindy.Then there was this other person on the bus who i at first thought to be the creep but wasn't and you never saw him again.(the guy i'm referring to is the one that had blood all over his eye.)the creep was weird, i had no clue what it was supposed to be, maybe a dead guy or something, but he looked more like a creature..and he could talk, which confused me a bit.Now i am only 12 turning 13 years old, so maybe this movie was more disturbing to me then the other commenters.I enjoy watching a good horror movie to get a good scare, but this movie wasn't really scary just disgusting and filled with gore and had no story line.
