[Book Review/Thoughts] Divergent by Veronica Roth

Synopsis 

In Beatrice Prior's dystopian Chicago world, society is divided into five factions, each dedicated to the cultivation of a particular virtue--Candor (the honest), Abnegation (the selfless), Dauntless (the brave), Amity (the peaceful), and Erudite (the intelligent). On an appointed day of every year, all sixteen-year-olds must select the faction to which they will devote the rest of their lives. For Beatrice, the decision is between staying with her family and being who she really is--she can't have both. So she makes a choice that surprises everyone, including herself.

During the highly competitive initiation that follows, Beatrice renames herself Tris and struggles alongside her fellow initiates to live out the choice they have made. Together they must undergo extreme physical tests of endurance and intense psychological simulations, some with devastating consequences. As initiation transforms them all, Tris must determine who her friends really are--and where, exactly, a romance with a sometimes fascinating, sometimes exasperating boy fits into the life she's chosen. But Tris also has a secret, one she's kept hidden from everyone because she's been warned it can mean death. And as she discovers unrest and growing conflict that threaten to unravel her seemingly perfect society, she also learns that her secret might help her save those she loves . . . or it might destroy her.

Review/Thoughts

After a long time, my friends decided to push me into reading this book. I wasn't excited, nor expected much of it because I thought it would be like the Hunger Games (which I like but wasn't inclined into reading the books). 

Oh boy, h boy, oh boy,  how wrong was I! Although, it sounded like the Hunger Games, it is NOT alike. This world that Veronica Roth has created is so complex and yet so simple in it's own ways. I'm in love with this world and how each faction has it's own good things and bad things. 

Since I haven't read the second book yet, I have my theories of what will happen. I will go on with that at the end of this review ^^

Now, stop reading if you haven't read it yet, I don't like spoiling people....Spoilers are bad!!!

You have been warned...

***I didn't make any notes because I was so into the book (It's so intense!!!) I'm just writing whatever I remember xD 

I laugh every time I say Beatrice's name. Because there's a witch in Umineko: When They Cry who has the same name but it's spelled out Bea-tri-che, as if it were Italian or something....And I just...can't! I can't! I can't call her Beatrice anymore! XDDD

At first this whole Abnegation thing pissed me off for some kind of reason, but as the situation advanced I came to like it too. When she chose Dauntless over Abnegation and any other faction I was surprised. I mean, Tris wasn't the rude type of girl. She changed A WHOLE LOT throughout this book. There you can see major character development. 

They make a lot of a deal about the Divergent thingy which I thought they were over reacting...again, how wrong was I!

Would you guys really choose Dauntless? I mean ._. WOAH! Those guys are crazy! I'm too much of a baby to actually do all those stuff. But putting those things aside, they are a faction that has it all. It would be the perfect faction only if Eric wasn't there...

Oh oh! I love the Hamburger scene! xDD 
"Have you ever seen a hamburger?
"Umm...no."
"No wonder you switched of factions"
"Yeah, I switched for the food"

*le me rolling over the floor* 

I don't know if I am a little slow but I didn't knew Four liked her until she kind of realized it. It was kind of cute though. I loved them!! Fourtris *O*

I loved Tris's friends. Will, Christina and Al. They are just so believable, so real. I never never NEVER expected Al to attack Tris that was so unexpected! 

Who else knew Four was from Abnegation before Tris knew it? I did ._. xDDD

And her mom was a transfer from Dauntless! Again, I didn't see it coming. It was so lovely of her to visit her daughter. Why did she die!! TT^TT And her father too!

I feel bad for poor Christina. What is she going to do when she realizes that Tris killed Will? *coming up with a new theory*

When it is mentioned that the Erudite and teh Abnegation didn't like each other, I didn't think that would play a major role in the book...How much have I been wrong!?? xDDDD

I've never hated a character too much, but really....Peter why didn't you die?? Why?? Why didn't they just shove him off the train? Why? I hope you don't screw up in the next book, Insurgent, or else I hope Tris kills you. Like really e.e 

I think my favorite scene was the paintball scene and the knife-throwing scene! Those were hilarious! 
When Peter's like: "Hey Stiff! You've forgotten what a knife is?"
Then she throws the knife and if the first one to do it. 
"Hey Peter! You've forgotten what a target is?" 

Really my favorite lines! xDDD I even bought the e-Book "Free Four: Tobias tells the story" It is Four narrating chapter 13 *O* Oh my feels! These babies were all over my room when I read it. 

Now! to the Theories! :D

Is Christina that good of a friend to Tris? I think she will loose it or something when she meets Tris in Amity. Will she try to kill her or hurt her?

I think that at the end of this trilogy, the Divergent are going to be like leaders for everyone because they are a bit of all the factions...or something like that. I think there's also a possibility for all the factions to be gone and all these people leaving together forming what could be like a normal city where all type of people that has different beliefs live. 

I'm gonna shut up now! xD

Conclusion

I freaking loved this book! There are so many nearly-death experiences, so much action! 

This is a baby with a little bit of everything: Romance, a whole lot of action, rebellions, comedy, just everything! Go and read it now! Really, you're gonna enjoy it :3 


Wanna know what faction you would be in? Go here and do this test. I'm Divergent ;D I'm a selfless, honest and smart person ._. Ok, if you say so test xDD 

[Dorama Rant] To The Beautiful You/Hanazakari no Kimitachi e (2011)

Hana Kimi 2011 Plot Synopsis

Mizuki Ashiya is a high school girl who dresses up like a boy so she can attend the all male boarding school Sakurazaki Academy. All of this to meet athlete Izumi Sano, a high jumper who quit the sport due to an injury...

Spoiler Alert!!



This dorama reminded me of Ouran High School Host Club! The girl that crossdressed as a boy and totally crazy boys that surround her? Yep, totally reminds me of that anime.

I love Nakatsu! Mizuki can go have Sano, I'll go with Nakatsu <3 He's just the perfect guy. Funny, sporty and handsome. And most important of all, he knows how to be himself. LOVE HIM! <3 Also, his roommate Kayashimi. Those two might be my favorite characters. My friend and I literally imagine Kayashimi as friendlier version of Nekozawa.

Oh and don't get me started on the the dorm leaders!
Dorm 1 Leader Tennoji: Deep voice and practices karate...with a little face and a sometimes cute personality xDDDD HAHAHAHA Totally a Mori-sempai in real life!

Dorm 3 Leader "Oscar": At first I thought he was Kim Hyun Joong xDD Thank goodness I was wrong! He's such a funny character. Always acting so princely and when someone called him by his real name "Masao"...Shazzam! He goes all furious and un-character like. Very very funny! He can be a very believable Tamaki too.

Dorm 2 Leader Nanba...he's the most normal of the three, yet he still has his funny characteristics too.

The level of comedy this dorama has can't even be explained in words. They even made a Hallelujah dance version techno!! Yep, no seriousness over here...

At least that was what I thought at first. As the series progresses there were many moments of serious talking  for example: whenever they mentioned the closure of the school or when they discovered Mizuki's true gender.

This was a quite lovable dorama because of all the genes it had, friendship and comedy being the principal ones. It had romance but there was only a bit of it, and yet those were the scenes I felt more awkward watching. Though Mizuki's little kiss she gave Sano on the cheek was so sweet <3

I really like the brotherhood between the guys, everyone watching this dorama can tell that it was true friendship between all those boys. I really liked watching those friendship scenes.

TTBY Plot Synopsis

Kang Tae-Joon is a gold medalist in the high jump, but he has been mired in a slump due to an injury. In order to help her idol, a girl named Koo Jae-Hee disguises herself as a boy and enrolls at the same all male high school.

Spoiler Alert!


Note: I watched this last year so I don't remember much...

I remember my friends and I watching this just because of Minho, Sulli and EXO. But EXO didn't even talk! They just appeared at a party but it was just the K counterpart. That made me really angry because WTF?? SM you are a troll! They kept saying EXO will appear, EXO will appear....e.e

My favorite one was Eungyeol! Really that guy was just hilarious xD

Minho might not be the best actor in the world but I think he did well for Taejoon's kind of personality. It was my first time watching a dorama with Sulli too, and she did it amazingly!

I don't remember anything specific so, I'll spot there.

Comparison:

Genere

TTBY focused more on Jaehee's and Minho's romantic relationship. The romantic moments of the Japanese version were too awkward and/or stiff for me. Though the dancing scene Mizuki and Sano had on their room was very cute and romantic <3

Hana Kimi 2011 focused more on the boy's friendship. Sano and Nakatsu were not just rivals but also friends in this version. I love the union between the three dorms. Yes, they compete frequently in the dorama but it's healthy competition and nothing behind it. The Korean version didn't have that type of connection between the dorms.

The Girl

In Hana Kimi 2011 Atsuko Maeda (Mizuki's actress) looked guy-er, I don't know if that's a compliment or not, but it made more believable for her to hide between guys.

In TTBY Sulli did a good job acting as a boy and all...but still I knew she was a girl from afar. In this version Jaehee did more athletic things than in the Japanese.

Etc.

The part where this guy that wanted to rape, or whatever, her, TTBY had more action and Taejoon really threw some punches. In Hana Kimi 2011 he was more like blocking him from Mizuki but I really felt sorry for her yet in the Korean version Jaehee was just injured.

St. Blossom/The all-girl school in Hana Kimi 2011 very funny to watch too. They were rich and elegant but they didn't brag or felt superior because of that as it was presented in TTBY. I liked when they visited the school they gave them food and they were all going crazy xDD Men and Food, best OTP!

I liked Hana Kimi 2011's school-closure plot way better than TTBY's Taejoon-needs-only-needs-to-jump-again-that's-all plot.

Hana Kimi 2011's final episode episode was WAY more emotive than TTBY's final episode.

                                                                       ***

Well, I will conclude with this:

Both versions are both watching since the both have a fair amount of differences from each other, and I really enjoyed watching the both versions. But! I will have to say if you really like doramas, you should watch the Japanese version. If you like good looking guys and clean and tidy places, you should go for the Korean version. 

I've always said it. Most Korean versions focus on the eye candy for viewers while Japanese look for the feeling the acting, mood and places give to a dorama. 

Again, both are great but this is only my opinion here. 

Rurouni Kenshin - Tokuhitsuban/Restoration

To celebrate the upcoming live action movie, Nobuhiro Watsuki reinvents the classic Rurouni Kenshin manga with all-new twists and turns.

Action, romance, and historical intrigue abound in Rurouni Kenshin, the tale of a wandering swordsman during Japan's chaotic Meiji Restoration. Join Kenshin, Kaoru, Yahiko, and others as they take up their swords once again!

Because my obsession with Rurouni Kenshin came back after watching the movie for what seemed like eight times in a row, I was looking for new info about this awesome anime/manga and just blew my mind! I quickly read the four chapters that online already and can't wait for more to come. 

So, yes, this is Rurouni Kenshin better drawn, with a slight difference in the details of the characters, and basically another way to tell the plot. (I think ._.) 

I decided to make this spoiler free so, wanna know the many changes of this plot? Go read it ^^ 

New Designs

Hittokiri Battousai

He and his clothes are the same as the original.

 The only difference is his the style of his hair

 and he wears a scarf now.

Kamiya Kaoru 

Same as the original except 

she is looks a little bit more mature. 

Maybe she's older or something?

Himura Kenshin
He is still the same as the original
except he has a scarf.
His hair remained the same length
except it is flatter.
*happy dance* Yaaay :D

Myoujin Yahiko

His hair is less spikier....that's the only thing xD

Sagara Sanosuke

I think he's also staying the same
though, he doesn't go around with his zanbatou anymore TT^TT 

Saito Hajime 

 Still the same bad ass ex-leader of the
third unit of the Shinsengumi <3

  I was extremely excited and started reading comments in the same page. Why I did that? I quickly git angry at various people because they started talking bad about the manga and stuff. Thank goodness I wasn't in the mood for replying to such idiotic comments. 

As an extreme fan that saw the whole anime with both OVAs, read the original manga completely, saw both Requiem for the Ishin Patriots and New Kyoto Arc, the live action movie and will keep reading this new manga, any extra work by Nobuhiro Watsuki with respect to the Rurouni Kenshin is already perfect for me. 

This is just for entertainment and for fans of Rurouni Kenshin. Reviews and analyzes are unnecessary. This manga is not for you "to analyze", but for fun, repeating what I said, it's a work dedicated to the fans.

I, with the same love I have been having all these years for this series, I will keep spazzing and fangirling every time a new chapter comes up. I hope other people think like me too ^^

Rurouni Kenshin will always be one of my very special anime of all time <3

[Movie Rant] Rurouni Kenshin

After what felt like an eternity for this movie to be on the Internet, I finally got to watch it! :D And not even thousand of happy face emoticons can really express how happy and impressed I am with this movie.

The soundtracks, the scenery, the actors, the battles, EVERYTHING was amazing!

Trailer 1 and Trailer 2 here, obviously with English subs xD

Warning! Spoilers ahead!
...and extreme fangirling from a girl who's been deprived of one of her favorite anime/manga since a long time...
read at your own risk ._.





At first  I didn't knew how to react because my beloved anime/manga became bone and flesh! Bone and freaking flesh! I'm holding myself back from doing an infinite spam right now ._.

That movie can be described in only one word: EPIC! It was a pity I couldn't see it in my TV :/ Such epicness needed a bigger screen for it to be appreciated even more. *O*

The way he talked was sooo like Kenshin! His "oro" was so cute <3<3

There was no way the actors could've done it in a better way. ♥ Though, Munetaka Aoki seemed a bit older than Sanosuke, but he did great so I won't complain :3

Takeru Sato was just AMAZING! I loved his acting in Beck and Bloody Monday 1 and 2, and in this one...Oh Gosh...MY FEELS!!!! His acting here doesn't compare to any of his previous works. He perfectly combined Himura Kenshin's adorableness and gentleness and Battousai's wildness. At the end when he was fighting Jinei, he started talking deeply and all angry and I was, "OH YEAH!!! Battousai's in the house! Go kick some ass as only you can do!" I can really imagine the stars appearing in my eyes at that moment xDD

The scenery was great! I even felt as if I was in the Meiji era with them...it was all so realistic!!!

And the battles!? I don't really care if all those moves were with the invisible string or not. It was freakingly epic and that is what matters! *spazzing* I can't even imagine how difficult it must have been to practice all those scenes, but the effort was worth it by much!

But what about Saito? Saito was too badass to left out of this rant!! Yosuke Eguchi nailed it. He perfectly made Saito Hajime come into life. His attitude, his fighting style and his baddass-ness <3

Who says you need an explosion behind to make your epic slow walking to the camera look good? Kenshin and Sanosuke only need people in the floor hurt from the previous battle Fuck yeah!!! THAT is to be badass ;D

OHMYGOSH! The violins played at the scene where Battousai gets his first scar *O* EARGASM!! jkhsadfkjdshkfjd

This Gein guy Kenshin was fighting with, I couldn't help but imagine what it would be like if Hiroki Narimiya  had done this character. I don't know if he's much of an action actor because I've never seen him in an action movie but his villain laugh he sometimes made in Bloody Monday 1 and 2 would have been great while he shoot Kenshin like a psycho! *O*

Table flip version Sanosuke! HAHAHAHAH XDDD

LOL! Sanosuke and the guy he's fighting with they just stop fighting and start eating like nothing's happening and go back to fight XDD Sanosuke and food, favorite OTP XD Sorry Megumi ;P

Very good work of doing a replica of the gigantic gun*O*

OH MY GOAUSHHH WDHFKJDSHFKLJD THE HITEN MITSURUGI RYUU, RYU TSUI SEN!!! EVEN THE HITEN MITSURUGI RYU, BATTOUJUTSU SOU RYU SEN!

.....

......

..................

It would be really amazing if they did a second movie with the Makoto Shishio arc. Because Kanryuu and Jin'ei can't even be compared with Shishio's evilness...and also, Aoi Shinomori, Misao and the whole Juupongatana will appear *O* That's my favorite arc the best of the whole anime...
Though if they did the last arc of the manga, the one with Tomoe's brother, would be THE BEST THING EVARR!!

Oh, and the song from the ending.....The Beginning by ONE OK ROCK.... Just seriously, were the directors and the whole crew trying to blow my mind in impossible ways? Because if they did, congratualtions! :D You have achieved it! ONE OK ROCK and Rurouni Kenshin...together?? .____.

That was me ---->

Now, being serious...

Ladies and gentlemen, this?  This. THIS is how a cartoon is brought to life. As far as live action adaptations of anime/manga sources go, this is absolutely as good as it gets.  Direction, music, casting… it just all came together so nicely I’m honestly amazed.

BRAVO JAPAN!

BRAVO RUROUNI KENSHIN CREW!

..............

P.S: Sorry for all the gifs >///< I guess I was a little bit excited....only a little bit xD

[Food&Sweets] Chocolate Chip Cookies

After a mega epic fail trying to do chocolate chip cookies last week from a random recipe my friends and I found in the Internet, I remembered my dear book named The Cookie Bible that my mother gave to me. We decided to give it another try...

Try it with us! :D 

Note: This recipe mentions the use of Nestlé © chocolate, which I will omit because you can use any type of chocolate chips. 

Page 66, Drop Cookies section

Chocolate Chip Cookies

2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

1 cup (2 sticks) butter or margarine, softened

¾ cup granulated sugar

¾ cup packed brown sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 large eggs

2 cups (12-ounce package) semi-sweet chocolate morsels/chips

1 cup chipped nuts

PREHEAT oven at 375 °F

COMBINE flour, baking soda and salt in a small bowl. Beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla extract in large mixer bowl until creamy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in morsels/chips and nuts. Drop by rounded tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets/greased pan.

BAKE for 9 to 11 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on baking sheets/pan for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely. 

Makes about 5 dozen cookies

(depending on the size you make your cookies)

The Results...

Like our attempt of doing a cookie tower? xDDDD

I was trying to eat them and my friend kept hitting my hand to stop me from destroying the tower. *sigh* Yeah, we're long gone crazy xD

Anyways, I feel proud that we got to bake such amazing-tasking cookies without the help of an adult...all by ourselves. They came up WAY better than the last time. They were so gross that I didn't even took a photo.

So, what are you still doing here?

Go! Have fun baking these cookies by yourself, with friends or parents ^^

[Movie Rant] Beastly

Another day of doing nothing in both anatomy and biology brought me back to watching another movie xD

A friend read this book and always talked me into reading it but I didn't want to but then she told me of the movie and I thought I must give it a shot.

Here's the very amazing trailer for this movie.

Spoilers ahead!

So the movie opens with this incredibly handsome guy doing exercise which I find so sexy! But I was quickly disapointed by him. He's a d**k!!!!! "Such a waste of a beautiful face", I thought. Alex Pettyfer is a very handsome actor but I started relating him to Gaston...

My friend told me this was like Beauty and The Beast modern version. It quickly explained everything and motivated me to keep watching it.

So as it is expected there's the "Beauty" played by Vanessa Hudgens and I think she's called Linda in the movie. Quite intelligent of them to change her name but maintain the meaning. Linda in Spanish means beautiful or in this case Beauty. She's the kind of girl that doesn't get played by looks and judges a person by their personality. I was a little skeptical when I saw her of all people playing that part, but she did well.

OH! I just must talk about my favorite character here: Kendra Hilferty, the witch. I loved her!!! Mary-Kate Olsen did an splendid work as the witch and it sad that people only thought about the principal characters. Really, hair styles and clothes were just AMAZING! It reminded me of a dark Wonderland theme, nothing but the best style for a modern witch.

I loved how Will Fratelli and Zola represented Lumiere & Mrs. Pott...at least that was what it looked like for me. Will had that dorkiness that we all loved from Lumiere and Zola was sweet and mother-like just like Mrs. Pott and also she had her kids, which was also another reason for me to visualize her as Mrs. Pott.

"Embrace the suck!" WTF? How did they came up with that!? xDD That's way too funny! Oh, and was I the only one that noticed that when Kyle was a beast "embrace suck" was written on his eyebrows? Talking about the tattoos, oh my! How did they do all that!? I can't even imagine all the time they spent applying all that to him every time they had to shoot. I was quickly reminded by the humuoungus amount of make up and extra stuff that consists the costume of Rumplestleskin from ABC's Once Upon a Time.

When Linda and "Hunter", as he presents himself to hide his identity as Kyle, finally get to really know each other the movie turns sweet and I personally loved the scene when their watching something in Korean on the TV. Also there was the greenhouse thing. It was extremely sweet of him to build a greenhouse for her. There were other sweet scenes of them but the best of them all was when he almost got to kiss her until that damned cellphone rang. *sigh* Cellphone calls, cockblocking since unmemorable times.

Linda said somewhere in the movie, "What happened to romance? Sappy, soppy longhand love letters."  Kyle remembers this and writes a veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeery long love letter for her throughout the movie. He hands it to her after the damned cellphone call...But she had called him a great friend .______________________. "WHY!!!???" I couldn't help but scream that at screen.

My friend, which was re-watching it with me, after that part kept telling me, "They won't end together." Leave it to her to make me uneasy about a movie. I didn't want to believe her but she had watched it for like three or four times, I thought she was telling the truth.

And the suspense for me continued even until the end. I THOUGHT SHE WAS GONE!  BYEBYE! ADIOS!...*sigh* Thanks goodness, that it wasn't how it ended. Happy endings RULE! And oh yeah, I wanted to kill my friend after all that suspense.

Really, my heart warmed as Will had his sight back and Zola found his kids. Beautiful scene. A great action from Kyle. Another beautiful scene was when Linda came back looking for "Hunter" and found Kyle and he told her he was "Hunter". Beautiful~~

The whole crew did an amazing work. Anyone who is a sucker for the Disney Princesses, Disney and fairytales (like me ._.) will really like this. I also find Beastly very easy to like and really couldn't find a little thing to hate about it.

I'll leave you with a loved quote of mine from when Linda was leaving for Machu Pichu.

"I just was scared that you didn't love me. And I didn't think you could because of how ugly I am. I should've known better. That's not who you are. You took one look at me and still said you'd seen worse. And somehow, when I'm around you, I don't feel ugly at all." 

Now don't tell me that's true love! Beauty and The Beast forever will be in my heart as the best fairytale in every version.  

[Movie Rant] The Perks of Being a Wallflower

A friend of mine recommended this movie because I asked her for a good movie based on a book.
She told me: "Hey! Check out The Perks of Being a Wallflower. It's amazing. I loved it." And when she says she loved a movie it must have been great, so yeah that same day I watched it...

and ended crying like a baby...

Here's the trailer for those who haven't seen this movie before. 

Spoilers coming!

At the first part of the movie I felt really related to Charlie. There was a time that I was like that too, but old habits don't seem to be easy to change. I'm still really shy and don't share what's on my mind to anyone. Then there's the part when he meets Patrick and Sam and he tries to fit in that group. *sigh* Fitting in a group...I suffered a lot with that emotionally. I will not get in detail but at least I didn't do drugs or drunk myself like him. So, yeah Charlie reminded me of me. Because of that I cried several times at the first half hour of the movie. 

Since his imitation one of the professors, I instantly liked Patrick. He's just so funny! Sam, Alice and Mary Elizabeth were cool too but I preferred Patrick better :3 I felt sooo sorry for him when the Brad's friends started hitting him. It was so painful to watch them throw those blows to him. And most of all, when he couldn't be with Brad. It ended in a pretty bad way and poor Patrick was so sad. Thank goodness he had Sam and Charlie to be there for him. Charlie was very brave to take on those guys to save Patrick. Man, that's true friendship!

The Rocky Horror Picture Show parts were SO uncomfortable to watch! Why? Well, unlike most of you who must have watched this movie at theaters or comfortably at home, I watched this at both my biology and anatomy class and there were more classmates siting behind me. At least they were busying themselves with other things than checking out what I was watching because that would have been very embarrassing. 

The soundtrack was amazing! I'm not that much of a fan of the 90's music but those that were played in the movie were awesome. But from all of them, two only stayed in my mind. "Come on Eileen" by Dexys Midnight Runners was the song that Sam and Patrick were dancing to in the homecoming dance, which was freaking hilarious and amazing! And "Heroes" by David Bowie. This last one is the famous "tunnel song". I can say there can't be any other song that could fit that last moment better than it was. It was just the infinite feeling that gave me goosebumps. Such a powerful and real feeling...*sigh* Just loved it. 

There's only one thing that I'll not talk about and it's Charlie's Aunt's sexual abuse to him when he was little...Boy, I didn't see that one coming.

Whoever chose the cast, has my congratulations as was well as the cast themselves. I didn't read the book but I can say they portrayed the characters extremely well. When I saw Emma Watson I was surprised to see that her long hair had been long gone. But she still looks great. I've never heard of Erza Miller and Logan Lerman but I loved them both in this movie and hope to see them in many more. 

A movie that has both bad and good things but it is still a movie that I won't be able to foret very easily. I know whoever watches The Perks of Being a Wallflower will enjoy it a 100% 

I'll finish this movie rant with a quote from the end of the movie, which was just so beautiful said and really held a powerful meaning behind everything it said: 

"I can see it. This one moment when you know you're not a sad story. You are alive, and you stand up and see the lights on the buildings and everything that makes you wonder. And you're listening to that song and that drive with the people you love most in this world. And in this moment I swear, we are infinite."
