Movie Review: Becoming Jane

Went and saw Becoming Jane the other night. I thought it was a lovely movie portraying her life. I found it fitting that I see the movie while I was making my way through her novels, even though I haven't gotten very far. Anne Hathaway (also in the Princess Diary movies) did a great job in her role, as did the other lead (don't know his name). I really got a sense of how she wrote her novels based on life and the many triumphs and heartaches she experienced. I definitely suggest this movie, even though it only got mediocre ratings.

To add a little product placement, strictly for females, I tried the Veet bladeless shave kit this weekend. The kit comes with the bladeless razor and cream that is supposed to work in as little as 3 minutes. The results were decent but not quite what I expected. It got a little messy waiting for the cream to set but it did leave my legs smooth. It is not going to save me any time compared to regular shaving and it has only been 2 days and I am already stubbly when I thought it was going to keep them smoother, longer. I don't think I will waste my money with it again, just my opinions though.

I like the reviews! I want to see that movie! I also was curios about about Veet, maybe now I'll forget the expense! :-)
