Reviewing: Austenland *Movie

First of all, yes, I am aware of how many reviews I've been doing recently. I'm also aware that we're almost halfway through the month and I've only posted twice. I'm really sorry, it's just that my inspiration is running really, really low.

I watched this movie twice in two days. Mostly because the first time I saw it, I paused it a lot to get food and drinks because I was eating. Plus if I like a movie a lot I'll watch it over and over and over again. That being said, even my sister wanted to see it again -- and wasn't bothered when "again" was the next day! She never does that. 

I'm guessing the reason is because Austenland is so hilarious. I died laughing at the way some of the characters spoke, at what her friend said that some people might've seen as disrespectful or cruel, but I'm sorry, I couldn't help it. I laughed anyways, and I probably will every time I see that scene.

Anyways, Jane Hayes has never had much luck with guys, and her obsession with Jane Austen -- or, more specifically, Pride & Prejudice -- is probably 98% of the problem.

So when she finally reaches her breaking point, she goes to Austenland, expecting awesome Regency era clothing, and, of course, romance.

And she finds it.

A lot of it.

Plus, there's a plot twist that left me very surprised. I spent over half of the movie telling my sister that the romance with a certain guy was going too fast and I didn't like it. Or him.

And turns out, I liked the right guy! Yaaay!

My point, I suppose, is this: Go see the movie. It's perfect if you wanna see some adorable romance and hilarious actors/actresses that will make you laugh.

4 stars.
