Tagline: For some, 13 feels like it was just yesterday. For Jenna, it was.


I've watched this movie many times and i always enjoy it and laugh and tear with all the scenes; it's such a beautiful, sort of time travel movie.

It's about Jenna who's just like any 13 year old girl that feels like her life is hell even though she has Matt as her best friend by her side; so she wishes to become 30 and her wish gets granted but slowly she discovers that her older self is very different than the young her, so she tries to right her wrongs, and even as a 30 year old woman she's still acting as a teenager because she really is (Jennifer Garner did an excellent job in making us believe her as a teen in a woman's body).


Of course my favorite scenes are when she meets future Matt; i loved the first scene where she panicked and wanted a pillow and everything after that...                        and the Thriller dance was epic...




Oh and it was a huge change to see Andy Serkis in person, he's actually human !!!


I absolutely love Mark Ruffalo (i think this is the first movie i've seen for him; now i've seen half of his filmography), his role here is sweet just like in Just Like Heaven, i like him in a romantic lead and Jennifer Garner was perfect for the role, and i liked her clothes,,,, and ahh the Lisa Frank folders,,, i still have mine and i want the rest :(

oh and i just read that some of Matt and Jennifer's scenes were improvised.

Jenna: I love you, Matt. You're my best friend

Matt: ...Jenna, I've always loved you

so whenever I'm in a mood for a funny, fluffy and a romantic movie 13 Going on 30 is always one of the top options to choose from.

Suits (season 2)

Channel: USA network
Year: 2012


Suits is back, i know i didn't review the 1st season but if i ever do rewatch it I will, for now i will write my thoughts on each episode week by week as i watch the 2nd season this summer....

It's so exciting to see all the characters back; In the finale of last year we had hints that Jessica might know about Mike's fraud and Rachel and Mike never talked about their kiss.

Episode 1 She Knows

Ok the season starts with a song going "You're a fraud and you know it" - lovin' it- so Jessica knows about Mike's fake Harvard certificate and forces Harvey to fire Mike but he can't and then we have a nice talk between Donna and Harvey; When Mike knows about him being exposed to Jessica he loses it for a minute but Harvey promises he'll do his best to keep his job, so Mike focuses on finishing a lawsuit he was assigned to work on... then we have poor Rachel convinced that Mike got her message but he doesn't want it to work so she got mad. and we have this old manager Hardman trying to get his position in the firm back from Jessica.
And i absolutely loved the scene where Harvey faced Jessica and told her that if she's gonna fire Mike, she'll have to fire him as well ..... great guy protecting his apprentice :) and of course Jessica is one hell of a lady, i love all of her scenes with Harvey, you feel like the both of them know everything about the other.

Jessica: Nervous?
Mike: I’d be lying if I said no.
Jessica: Well I wouldn’t want you to lie

Donna: If you didn’t tell him anything, why was he so dazed when he walked out of here?

Harvey: I told him I was proud of him.
Donna: You need to give that boy more encouragement.

Harvey: He goes, I go

Episode 2 The Choice

We get to see Mikes bike again; in the firm a whole lot of changes are going on and workers are figuring out whose side to take, Jessica's or Daniel... One of my favorite scenes is the one where Jessica and Donna and Harvey talk about who hates Harvey from their department,,,, again the moments between Jessica and Harvey were fantastic, him sealing the deal as he insisted it should and then her feeling betrayed. As for Rachel and Mike they get together and they had some sweet moments together then it all ended so soon for the sake of the the firm,,, too bad i really hoped they'd stay for a few more episodes.

Mike: I got your message

Harvey: Remind me to fire you
Jessica: Remind me to give you a raise

Jessica: I have been irritated by you, exasperated at you and angry with you. But I never thought I’d be betrayed by you

Harvey: You Know I was right
Mike: It doesn't make it any better

Episode 3 Meet the New Boss

I enjoyed this episode very much, the addition of Hardman's character is adding so much dynamic and interesting scenes like Jessica always being pissed by him and Harvey making his straight forward remarks to provoke Daniel...  Margo Martindale (A Gifted Man, Justified) guest stars here as chief nurse that demands settlement money and in which Mike and Harvey argue about how to deal with it. oh and Louis had some great scenes here and they brought him a female version of him. and of course i loved the scene where Mike was helping Rachel to write about her for the dating website, it was so sweet and how they were so close without looking at each other :)

Grammy: That’s what happens when you love your job: You don’t give a rat’s ass about your grandmother

Mike: Yeah, that is why i put in the home

Rachel: I've got a photographic memory. Pretty much a legal hero
