The Holiday

The Holiday

I like Kate Winslet, I’ve always thought that she is not as pretentious as the rest of Hollywood. I had no idea Edward Burns was in this! Why didn’t someone tell me?!

So the typical romantic holiday story goes like this, American woman (Diaz) and English woman (Winslet) swap homes for the holidays because both of them are suffering the oh so “not expected” break-up blues.

So while the numbingly dumb American blonde puts up in Winslet’s cottage, SURPRISINGLY, Winslet’s brother who in recent times have become slightly nauseating Jude Law shows up.

While over in LA, Winslet befriends Diaz’s 90 year old neighbor, who exudes more charm in two hours than Law could ever in his entire lifetime. Enter Jack Black, he works with Diaz who makes trailers for movies, while he composes.

Okay, blah blah bleeuh!

You know the rest of the story, don’t make me go through it, I have been sufficiently punished just by sitting here and watching it.

Look out for the trailer that Diaz “apparently” made, its got James Franco and Lindsay ‘I’m white trash’ Lohan in it.

And Winslet’s dog, at least I think its Winslet’s dog, I don’t think she would fly herself and her dog to L.A if it was only for the holidays and besides pork faced Diaz would be there to kill him accidentally cause she thought the rat cage laced with rat poison was actually his muzzle.

But the point is, that’s a cute dog and probably even spells too! Which Diaz can’t do.

And its only to give face to Black, Winslet and that Old Man.

Oh! And look out for Dustin Hoffman in the video store!
