Fangirlish Does Valentine’s Day: “Leap Year”

It’s Valentine’s Day weekend and we’re talking some of our favorite rom-coms, like Leap Year! Check out our review.

Fangirlish Does Valentine’s Day: “Stardust”

The romance media gets a bad rep. From the bad takes on romance novels to lumping all romance movies into the same umbrella. The romance genre contains multitudes, from contemporary to historical to fantasy to adventure. If you enjoy stories…

Fangirlish Does Valentine’s Day: “The Proposal”

We are going to be very truthful with you, if you didn’t like The Proposal, we are severely disappointed in you. This wonderful romantic comedy has humor, a great storyline and a wonderful cast. Do you know how hard that…

Fangirlish Does Valentine’s Day: “Miss Congeniality”

Confession: I am not a girly girl. Never have been. Dresses only happen for me if they are 100% necessary or very special occasions, like when I got married or when my friends get married. I would rather challenge you…

Fangirlish Does Valentine’s Day: “Jackie & Ryan”

Valentines day is known as the day for lovers and it’s a time when we watch all things romance. Some people are into super sugary ooey gooey romance movies and that’s fine, I love my fair share of them too.…

Fangirlish Does Valentine’s Day: “Ladyhawke”

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, so we at Fangirlish are celebrating by rewatching (and reviewing) some of our favorite romantic movies. There are so many good films to choose from, but I finally decided to go with one…

#WayBackWednesday – Love & Basketball (2000)

For the week leading up to Valentine’s Day, I felt it appropriate to check out a romance for #WayBackWednesday. Love & Basketball is a film that I’d heard good things about, but I’d not really checked out myself before this…

Cleopatra Coleman Talks ‘The Right One’ And Breaking the Mold

The Right One is not the movie you expect it to be. I’m not saying that in a bad way, though I admit that after watching the trailer I was both super interested and super confused. What I found from…

#WayBackWednesday – Malcolm X (1992)

February is Black History Month, so I felt it would be a good idea for me to close some gaps in my movie viewing. I have come to realize that while I’ve seen many newer films by black filmmakers and…

A-Z Movie Reviews: ‘5IVE GIRLS’

#WayBackWednesday – Enemy of the State (1998)

Enemy of the State was not a film I caught in its original release, likely because it’s rated R and I didn’t really watch political thrillers at the age of 13. Let’s be honest, I don’t watch them that often…

#WayBackWednesday – The Fog (1980)

The Fog (1980) is a film I’ve only had the pleasure of seeing once before this week. I’ve waxed philosophical more than once on Fangirlish about my love for John Carpenter’s work and directorial style. When I saw that The…

A-Z Movie Reviews: ‘Fifty Shades Of Grey’

Welcome to A-Z Movie Reviews.  Every Sunday, for the next several months, I will be posting a review of a film in my home movie collection.  How it works is, I will be reviewing movies in alphabetical order until I…

#WayBackWednesday – The Princess Bride (1987)

Sometimes you just need a comfort movie for your #WayBackWednesday, which is why I’m revisiting the 1987 cult-favorite this week, The Princess Bride. The Princess Bride is nearly universally loved, but did you know this film was only moderately successful…

#WayBackWednesday – When Harry Met Sally… (1989)

Confession: I have been reluctant to watch When Harry Met Sally… for many years. It’s not because it’s not my preferred genre of science fiction. It’s not because I don’t enjoy Billy Crystal, Meg Ryan, or the writing of the…

A-Z Movie Reviews: ‘Election’

#WayBackWednesday – The Santa Clause (1994)

The Santa Clause got repeat play at my house year-round growing up. I watched a fair amount of Home Improvement because of my crush on JTT back in the day, so I was quite happy to watch a Disney Christmas…
