made of honour

read ahead for these 2 movies:

1. made of honor

2. the happening

i thought of jotting also on a movie that i watched on ASTRO but for a moment of lapse, i lost it there. so there shall be only 2 stories la. korang tak kisah kan?

made of honour didn't rub me in the rightest way. it's ok but the fizzy chemistry wasn't there. other than the companiability and token honesty that they shared, i honestly couldn't figure out what appeals most about the guy. as for hannah, i can see why. she gots quality there, and she's smart, sensitive and easy on the eyes. in this movie, i love the part where he takes care of her, buying coffee and knowing her favourites as she does him. also, the part where they spent the Sundays together, doing whimsical things that only they can do it comfortably together.

em, i edit later bleh. got to go for lunch!

ok, sambung balik. walaupun takde idea. pelan-pelan la ek. pasal lately rasa movies tu cam kurang kick. malas nak komen lebih-lebih..

here's a synopsis shared by wiki-wiki on this movie:

Tom(Patrick Dempsey) and Hannah (Michelle Monaghan) met in college when he accidentally slipped in her bed thinking she was her roommate. He was impressed how feisty and honest she was. He always had girls flinging themselves at him but Hannah was against all that.

10 years later on, Tom is successful in life. He's become wealthy from his invention of the "coffee collar", has plenty of guy friends to hang with, a new girl every week, and his one best friend. From the very start it's obvious this best friend is crazy about him and he takes her for granted. They go to antique stores together and guess each other desserts at a famous bakery.

One day, Hannah goes to Scotland on an acquisition trip for her museum (though still manages to spend 4 out of her 6 weeks there sight seeing) and Tom realises he feels empty without her. All the girls he goes out with while she is gone complain about the antiques store or can't even play the dessert guessing game. Tom decides to tell Hannah his feelings and ask her to be with him when she returns in six weeks.

As Tom gains his courage to ask her to be his partner, he finds out Hannah has become engaged to a wealthy man, Colin, in Scotland and plans to move there. Hannah asks Tom to be her "maid" of honor and he agrees so he can try to win Hannah back and stop the wedding. Tom decides to be the best maid of honor he possibly can be. He wants to show Hannah that she really doesn't know Colin all that well and that it was a mistake getting engaged so quickly. Hannah reveals that she is going to move to Scotland to be with Colin.

While in Scotland, Tom plans to tell Hannah he loves her. At a chance break during the hen party, they share a passionate kiss, then break away. Hannah then gets whisked off by her bridesmaids.

That night, Hannah goes up to Tom's room to talk to him. But before she arrives, Hannah's cousin, who Tom broke up with, comes into Tom's room and attempts to seduce him. Hannah walks in right as Hannah's cousin is on top of Tom. Tom and Hannah have an argument, and Tom leaves for home.

But on his way, he decides to stop the wedding. On horseback (borrowing a horse in exchange for part of his coffee collar royalties) he makes it to the chapel just in time, and kisses Hannah, who decides to cancel the marriage and marry Tom.

that simply simplifies it, kan? except that i was fighting myself to be awake all the while. tu la pasal bila filem tamat, saya pi beli tiket untuk tengok citer the happening walaupun waktu makin lewat..
