One Week (I) (2008)

A warm and touching film

[10/10 · 25 January 2016]

It is a wonderful story about a man who just found out he was dying of cancer. He decides to question his life, and his life choices. He goes on a trip to find adventure but ends up finding himself. He meets different people along the way who help him straighten things out a bit. They help him shatter some long held beliefs, like he can't sing or write. In the end, he realizes that he isn't in love with his fiancé and can't marry her. I was mesmerized throughout the entire film. Joshua Jackson was phenomenal. He proved he is a star and can carry a movie all by himself. I was very disappointed that the film didn't more acclaim than it did.

Dexter (2006–2013)

Michael C Hall

I really love the show. It is such a novel concept for TV. I would say that it is the best show by far that I have ever watched. I have heard of a show like this on TV. I am definitely a huge fan. The suspense, the drama, and (at times) the comedy keep you on the edge of your seat. I'm so glad I discovered it. I speed watched it the 1st time around, all eight seasons in a matter of about a week. I couldn't stop. I tried to pace myself but just couldn't. I'm on my 2nd viewing. I'm pacing myself this time around. It's amazing how much I'm picking up on the 2nd time around that I missed the 1st time.

Michael C Hall is outstanding in the role of Dexter. I can't think of a better actor that could have pulled it off. He makes the character believable. He makes you love Dexter. The way he grows Dexter throughout the series keeps it from being stagnate. I'd never heard of Michael before Dexter. I will definitely be looking for anything he's in from now on.

Eight seasons is not enough. It ends with you wanting more. Maybe they'll come back with a movie.
