"Keith" is about Natalie, a high school senior, who is the quintessential over-achiever. She gets stuck being lab partners with Keith who is mysterious and adventurous. Natalie becomes invested in finding out whatever secret Keith is hiding. The story line is actually pretty adorable with a sudden twist that definitely takes you by surprise. All in all the acting was good. I had never heard of Elizabeth Harnois or seen Jesse Mccartney truly act before watching this. I was surprised at how well Jesse portrayed Keith. He was very good a creating a character that seems carefree on the surface but holds a big secret. "Keith" is a cute love story with true meaning behind it and a great lesson to live for the moment.

I didn't have high hopes going into this, it seemed like the typical "helpless woman being chased by a crazed inbred in the woods" but I was pleasantly surprised. That basically is the premise, Ellen is in a minor car wreck and left stranded on an empty wooded highway at night when she becomes prey to the very large "Moonface". This film has an interesting difference though, Ellen is trained in survival tactics from her intense husband. It was nice to actually see a woman fight back for once. "Incident" was the perfect length for it's story line. There was a lot of tension but it wasn't dragged out and overplayed. I highly recommend this for fans of the horror genre who have an hour to spare.

"50/50" is about Adam, a very health and safety conscious young man, who is diagnosed with a rare spinal cancer. He struggles with accepting his condition and fighting it. The acting in this film is fantastic. Joseph Gordon-Levitt adds a genuine quality to the movie that I find lacking in many other movies about health issues. Seth Rogen does a great job of adding humor in a way that makes sense and is welcomed. "50/50" is packed with emotions, from fear and anger to love and laughter, which helps portray the confusing situation that Adam is enduring. It is a heavy film that I wouldn't suggest watching if you're looking for mindless entertainment, but if you're looking for something with substance, "50/50" is perfect.
