The Girl Next Door (2004)
A Love Letter to Elisha Cuthbert: The Girl Next Door (2004)
Oh, where do I even begin with "The Girl Next Door"? Let me just say, Elisha Cuthbert stole not only my heart but the entire show in this absolute gem of a film.
From the moment she graced the screen with her radiant smile and infectious energy, I was hooked. Playing the irresistible and enigmatic Danielle, Cuthbert brought a perfect blend of charm, wit, and vulnerability to the role, making her every scene a delight to watch.
But let's not forget about the movie itself - it's a rollercoaster of laughs, romance, and coming-of-age chaos that had me on the edge of my seat from start to finish. Sure, it's got its fair share of teenage antics and wild escapades, but beneath the surface, there's a heartfelt story about love, redemption, and finding yourself amidst the chaos of adolescence.
And oh, the chemistry between Cuthbert and Emile Hirsch's character, Matthew - talk about fireworks! Their on-screen dynamic sizzles with tension and tenderness, making every moment they share feel electric.
But back to Elisha Cuthbert - she's the real MVP here. Whether she's delivering a killer one-liner or breaking hearts with her vulnerability, she's a force to be reckoned with. And let's not even get started on her killer dance moves - iconic doesn't even begin to cover it. Also have to mention that one seen, where they made love in the limo, the emotions in her eyes, you can feel and see the love she has for Matthew, i had to rewatch it several times, it's breathtaking and in my opinion, that scene alone, makes her deserve an oscar!!!
In short, "The Girl Next Door" is a modern classic that's impossible to resist, and Elisha Cuthbert's performance is nothing short of legendary. So, if you haven't experienced the magic of this movie yet, do yourself a favor and give it a watch. You won't be disappointed if you dare just to go with it!
The juice is worth the squeeze.
Even after almost 20 years, I'll never forget... the girl next door!

Legion of Super-Heroes (2023)
I liked it, but some things could be better I guess
I liked the story, not every animation needs to strive for a 10/10 rating. But this is more a sidestory to line up the future of DC.
Story was interessting, voice acting was really good. Animation was ok, could be much better of course, but then this not aspire to be a Ghibli Movie, liked some of the characters, but some were just straigt rip-offs, i liked voices of Batman, Superman, Supergirl and Brainiacs in particular. Awesome job. I wish they would really continue some of the stories in the same style, but it feels like theses days the are re-inventing the style of the animation and story telling with every new movie and every tv-series.
How about they would find a style, let the fans vote and then focus on that style, perfect it and use that same style for some time and invest more into the details of the story.
All in all, hardcore dc users, might be a little dissapointed, but the casual dc/marvel fan, who read all the comics at young age (like me) like those kind of movies. Give it a chance.
