The Normal Heart

Posted on January 17, 2015 by Diary of a Chocaholic • Leave a comment

Many great movies either make it straight to DVD, so you don’t know they exist until you stumble upon them, or are only shown on TV (in another country!) which means access is limited. The Normal Heart is one such movie. Shown on HBO last May, it’s a star-studded version of Larry Kramer’s play. Set … Continue reading →

The Theory Of Everything

Posted on January 17, 2015 by Diary of a Chocaholic • Leave a comment

Awards season is upon us, and with it an astonishing amount of biopics. “Same procedure as every year” I guess (check here if you don’t understand that reference). Anyhoo, after seeing The Imitation Game (which I didn’t review, but it was a great movie), The Theory Of Everything is the second contestant I’ve checked out. … Continue reading →

Every now and then, you go to the movies expecting very little from a movie. You go because you’re being dragged by a friend or because it’s cheap and you have nothing better planned that day. And most of the time you leave saying “Yeah, that was alright I guess…”. But sometimes, you leave with … Continue reading →

Love, Rosie

Posted on November 6, 2014 by Diary of a Chocaholic • 1 Comment

You know those movies that just make you feel good when they’re done? Well 2014 has seen quite a few of them, like Belle, The Fault In Our Stars, If I Stay, The 100 Foot Journey etc. Latest in line is Love, Rosie, based on Cecilia Ahern’s book Where Rainbows End. As with PS I … Continue reading →

The Rewrite

Posted on November 6, 2014 by Diary of a Chocaholic • Leave a comment

This review comes with a massive delay since the film isn’t in cinemas anymore, but I hope you’ll be intrigued enough to maybe get the movie on DVD when the time comes. If you enjoyed Hugh Grant in everything, especially Music And Lyrics, and if you remember Marisa Tomei from Only You and Crazy Stupid … Continue reading →

Pride And Joy

Posted on October 2, 2014 by Diary of a Chocaholic • Leave a comment

Every now and then, a movie comes along that will change you a little bit as you watch it. A movie that will make its way into your heart faster than you can say its name. Pride is most definitely one of them. From the moment it begins, the comedy-drama draws you in, ready to … Continue reading →

If I Stay

Posted on September 11, 2014 by Diary of a Chocaholic • Leave a comment

After The Fault In Our Stars, If I Stay is the second painful teen rom-com hitting our screens this year. And it’s just as beautiful as the first. Based on the book by Gayle Forman, the surrealist story follows Mia Hall as she has an out-of-body experience while in a coma. Mia (Chloë Grace Moretz) … Continue reading →

The Hundred-Foot Journey

Posted on September 11, 2014 by Diary of a Chocaholic • Leave a comment

In the past decade, food-related movies have sprouted (see what I did there?) every few of years or so, each making you salivate more than the last. You only have to remember dribbling in front of Chocolat, Simply Irresistible, Julie and Julia, Ratatouille, No Reservations, Chef etc. The French (obviously) have their own string of … Continue reading →

Begin Again

Posted on July 21, 2014 by Diary of a Chocaholic • Leave a comment

If you’re into Indie musicals (or movies about music), and if you liked Once, then Begin Again is your lucky ticket. The plot focuses on the two main characters and their separate back stories that eventually merge into the present: Gretta (Keira Knightley) is the talented but shy girlfriend of sudden new pop sensation Dave … Continue reading →

The Fault In Our Stars (movie)

Posted on June 25, 2014 by Diary of a Chocaholic • 3 Comments

I have friends who still read a lot of “teenage” fiction. Sometimes, so do I. I do own the John Green book, I just haven’t read it yet. Nevertheless, I went to see the movie yesterday and (obviously) cried my eyes out. For those of you who’ve been living under a rock for the past … Continue reading →
