Life in a year

 This is a romantic movie that lovers of the fault in our stars, I still believe and 5 feet apart will love. It is the story of a young teenage boy  Daryn( Jaden Smith).  All his life has been planned by his father Xavier (Cuba Golding Jr)  who wants him to go to Harvard but Daryn loves to rap and he is pretty good at it. Daryn has always been told what to do by his parents who wants him to have a successful life. Then one night, Daryn has an encounter with a girl Isabelle (Cara Delevingne) and he falls in love with her. They begin to hang out and Daryn finds out that Isabelle is a free-spirited human being who does whatever she wants, doesn't go to school and she has cancer. 

Despite their differences and Isabelle's illness Daryn still loves her so much and with the help of their loved ones he was able to show his love to her. Isabelle tells him she has less than a year to live and he made up his mind to make the best of that year.  Isabelle pushes Daryn to do what he loves and not what his parents want him to do because life is short. 

The points or moral lessons I want to bring out in this movie are love, friendship and children-parent relationship. First, let us talk about love, Daryn loved Isabelle so much that although she had a terminal disease he was willing to risk heartbreak for her even though she tried pushing him away at first. When his father pointed out that Isabelle is so different from him and that she will hinder him from being successful Daryn didn't care he still stayed with her and he even gave up following his father's plan of him going to Harvard. Second, Friendship is strong in this movie. I admire the relationship Daryn has with his two close friends Kiran and Sammy. They helped him a lot in his relationship with Isabelle to the point that they even took turns taking care of her when she was very weak and dying. Lastly talking about parent-children relationship, parents should let their children live their lives and make their own decisions. Xavier had a plan for Daryn's life and has been following it since he was a child. He was so obsessed with making sure Daryn becomes successful in life that he failed to build a  good relationship with his son. 

Overall, I love this movie and I highly recommend it.

A Nashville Christmas Carol

 Every year, there are some Christmas movies involving the spirit of Christmas past, Christmas present and Christmas future. These spirits help people who have lost their Christmas spirit find it again.   A Nashville Christmas is about Vivienne ( Jessy Schram) who has lost her Christmas spirit while trying to make sure everyone else around her have a good Christmas. As a workaholic television producer in charge of a country music Christmas special showing newcomer Alexis (Raelynn), Vivienne, never lets personal feelings get in the way of her career. She receives a visit from the ghost of her recently deceased mentor, Marilyn, on the verge of accepting a job in LA, and with the return of Gavin Chase (Wes Brown), her childhood sweetheart and manager of the special headliner, Belinda (Sara Evans).  Marylin (Wynonna Judd) Her mentor cautions that her chosen path leads to a dark one.

This movie is entertaining and it is ideal for a nice relaxing movie night.  The main lesson in this movie is that people deserve second chances and that we should not put work over friends. Vivienne did not want to give her childhood sweetheart another chance but she learnt that people change so she eventually did. Also, Vivienne was so focused on work and she was seen as controlling even though she had good intentions. So she learnt to focus on things that really matter. 

Have a lovely Christmas celebration guys and stay safe. God bless you all.   

IF ONLY I HAD CHRISTMAS

 

If only I had Christmas Is a Christmas movie from Hallmark Channel.  The story is about Darcy (Candace Cameron Bure) a publicist that works with GUMM Pr a PR firm in Kansas City.  Darcy had to work with Emerald Education Trust and it happens to be her dream job.  Her job was to help  VP Glen Goodman and his team to find the awareness, confidence, and heart to support a Christmas charity in need. Darcy and Glen start to understand that they have it all in common. Glen's unexpected announcement at the big Christmas gala, however, could only put an end to their exciting relationship before it really began. 

This movie is all about spreading Christmas cheer. Darcy a cheerful and free-spirited soul was able to have a positive impact on the people around her and make them know what the true meaning of Christmas is. It is enjoyable and entertaining and I highly recommend it. 

HAPPIEST SEASON

Happiest Season is a movie about a young woman trying to find the courage to live the life that she wants despite having controlling parents who want everything to be picture perfect. This movie provides a strong message about finding the confidence to be yourself, especially in the face of family rejection. The story is about Harper (Mackenzie Davis)  a lesbian who invited her girlfriend  Abby (Kristen Stewart) to her family house for Christmas because Abby was going to be alone. On their way, Harper confesses that she has not told her parents that she was gay so they have to pretend to be roommates. The unwillingness of Harper to come out to those around her starts to put a strain on her relationship with Abby (who vents to both her friend John, played by Daniel Levy, and to Riley). Will Harper be able to conquer her fear and save her relationship? 

This movie talks about the fact that parents should support their children and not try to make them into someone or something they are not. Harper's parents are politicians so they groomed their family to be the perfect family to win elections. This made the children lives unhappy in the long run. Parents should understand the importance of their children's happiness and children should learn to be themselves no matter what.  From Harper's struggle to embrace herself and be genuinely content with who she is, both parents and children will gain. In terms of the movie's themes about accepting their faults and making their children feel welcomed just as they are.
