I couldn't have been more right; I loved the movi... read more

I have noticed that Wayne Wang is not a really famous director here in Listal or even in general but ever since I have seen 'Smoke' (which is a really awesome and underrated movie, you should definitely check it out if you haven't seen it yet), I always try to check his other movies when I have the chance. Here, he gave us a rather mainstream standard romantic comedy. First of all, to be honest, I... read more

Description: Queen Latifah is absolutely delightful in Wayne Wang's romantic comedy, LAST HOLIDAY. Latifah stars as Georgia Byrd, a reserved plus-sized woman who lives a dreary, ordinary life in pre-Katrina New Orleans, where she dreams of an elegant existence filled with fancy food, stylish clothing, and high-society parties. But she spends most of her evenings eating frozen dinners all alone, often thinking about a shy coworker (LL Cool J) she has a crush on.

"First Viewing Plot: Upon learning of a terminal illness, a shy woman decides to sell all her possessions and live it up at a posh Central European hotel. A remake of the old Ealing comedy of the same name starring Alec Guinness, Last Holiday is a perfectly reasonable contemporary comedy: it's well-made, light, enjoyable, inoffensive and humorous, with a central moral message about living life to the fullest. It's also not strictly a Christmas movie; although it's set at Christmastime, the film"
