[Movie Review] We Bought a Zoo (2011)

Heart warming 7/10


I watched the movie with zero expectation and surprisingly, I like it a lot. The whole emotional journey of the story is well written and it managed to capture the true essence of the story that it wants to tell to the audience.

I would really suggest this based on a true story, comedy-drama film for a family movie. It will help strengthen the bonding with each family members. Great performance by Matt Damon. Scarlett Johansson is just ever so pretty :D 
I am overrating this film a bit, but on a subjective level I just really loved it. The movie had a few cliche trappings, but surprisingly avoided many as well. The story had more emotional depth than most family films ever do, the humor was well timed and not too silly, and all of the characters had a part to play that felt natural and furthered the story. It was just great to watch a clean family film with my family with solid acting and a fun story.

Blonde, Brains, and Rich - Ivanka Trump



That's Ivanka Trump's first ever cover for a magazine back in 1997. She has come a long way ever since then and I really like her a lot. Not just the fact that she's blonde and pretty but mainly because she's also smart.

I first get to know her through the TV show The Apprentice, which is a series hosted by her dad - Donald Trump. By the way, I really love that show, haha. Through the show, I can really see that she's not just a spoiled rich brat, who rises to the top just because of the rich dad.

Ivanka is to said that she represent most of her dad in character wise. Intelligently smart, out spoken and a person of character/principal.
