Real movie reviews for normal people by a normal person! I'm a mid 30's woman with good taste who wants to spare you the pain and agony I've been through of seeing SO MANY bad movies. I find that only one or two truly worthwhile movies come out PER YEAR! My span ranges from Goodfella's, Office Space, The Shining, Slingblade, the Rocky movies, The Big Lebowsky, The Break Up, and Shane (all excellent and some of the top movies ever for me!) Yes I'm a bit of a movie (and popcorn) snob!

Guilt Trip
I don't know why i thought this would be funny. I'm not a Barbra Steisand fan, and in this movie she PARTICULARLY annoyed me, playing very well the overbearing Jewish mother to Seth Rogan (why are ALL mothers in ALL movies crazy and overbearing?) It wasn't terrible. I liked its "realness" (they looked, dressed, and pretty much acted like real people). No consideral sappiness that I thought would be the ending that could have REALLY ruined it for me. It was passable and somewhat entertaining. I saw a bit of myself in Barbra as a mother in dealing with an "all about me" and sometimes condescending child. I liked the part where she gave him a talking to to ground him. As I say when I visit a just OK restaurant, OK, but there's nothing to ever bring me back.
