Movie Review: Million Dollar Arm


Hello Everyone!
I hope you all are having a wonderful week so far. I am super excited to be doing a review on this movie. As you all know, I love movies. But my love of sports movies is a different story. So today, I will be reviewing the movie, Million Dollar Arm. 

Summary: 
This movie is about a man named Jamie Bernstein or JB. He is a sports agent. But 3 years before the movie started, he decided to create his own agency. Now him and his two co workers have not signed any new players since they went on their own and started their own company. In the beginning of the movie, he was trying to get a football player Popo to sign with him. But while waiting for Popo, he realized something. What if he turned a cricket player from India, into a MLB pitcher. So that's what he tried to do. He went to India, and created this contest called the Million Dollar Arm. He traveled throughout all of India looking for a pitcher. They had to pitch over 80. He found two pitchers. He takes them from India to the United States. In 6 months, a college baseball coach teaches these two players who have never picked up a baseball before, to becoming future MLB pitchers. Then JB sets up a tryout for them. With all the major league teams scouting them. And that is all I can say or else I will ruin the ending. 

My Opinion: 
Oh My! Oh My! This movie was so good. This is something not many people know about me but I love Bollywood. I love Bollywood music and movies. So throughout the whole film they had Bollywood music and I was in my glory. But that's not the point. The point is that this story is incredible. What is even crazier is that it is based off a true story. That is what blew me by surprise. These two teenagers came from nothing and left everything to live their dream and try to make a life for themselves. And they did. I thought the casting was incredible. I love Jon Hamm anyways because of Mad Men and the actor from Life of Pi, Suraj Sharma, he is incredible. I have a little crush on him. And I really enjoyed the other actor, Madhur Mittal. The brotherhood that they both had was really sweet and caring. This movie was not only touching but it was extremely funny. I thought that it was a quirky kind of funny. So I really recommend this movie. Especially, if you are like me and love inspirational sports movies, you will really enjoy this movie. 

Ps: This is the real Rinku and Dinesh


Watch the movie. You will not regret it! And check out the album. It was a really fun, plus it gives you a taste of Bollywood music. 

I hope you all enjoyed this blog post. Have a wonderful day/evening.

Carpe Diem,
Sophia

Battle of the BB Creams!

Hello everyone! Now as you all can tell, I love the Battle of the series. The reason why is because I can review a bunch of products for you all in one blog post. Since it is summer and not many of you want to wear a ton of make up, I thought I would tell you my favorite BB creams. I also want to let you know that there might not be many blog posts in the month of July. The reason is because I am in college at the moment and I am super busy. I will try to put up as many as I can but I just want to let you all know! :) I hoped you all had a wonderful June! What is a BB cream?    Now BB stands for blemish balm. A BB cream is supposed to have a moisturizer, primer, concealer, skin treatment and foundation all in one. BB creams have been all the rage for a while now but not many people talk about them anymore.   NOW LET'S GET READY TO RUMBLE! Round 1: This is the  L'oreal Magic Skin Beautifier BB Cream . This BB cream was one of the first BB creams that ...

First Impression: Sephora Favorites Meet Your Match!

Hello everyone! I am super excited to be doing my first first impression blog post! Yay! Now I got this a while ago but I have not really touched it or played around with it. A first impression is basically my opinion on these products and how I think of them the first time I swatch them, use them , stuff like that. Now this is a value set from Sephora and it is the  Sephora Favorites Meet Your Match .  Now this was pretty popular among some YouTubers a while back and I really liked the products and wanted to try them and it was only $25 for 6 sample size products. Which I thought was a pretty good deal.  Packaging:  I love the packaging. I thought it stands out because of the bright colors and the interesting print on the cardboard. I also love the concept of matching you lip gloss to your nail polish. I thought it was a really fun idea for summer.  Match 1: This is the first lip product that I want to tell you all about an...

Spring Trends 2014!

Hi Everyone! Spring is finally here! I am so excited for spring because I am tired of the cold. But where I live it is still freezing.....oh spring, where are you? Anyways, I wanted to show you all my favorite Spring Trends for 2014! Even though summer is my favorite season, spring trends this years are really fun. My first favorite trend is blood orange lips! Now when I first saw this trend I got really confused because the blood orange color seems more like a summer trend. But this has been all over makeup magazines and this trend was also popular on the runway during Fashion Week. What I really like about this trend is that your whole make up look can be soft and dewy and the POW! Blood orange lips! The lips seem to make any makeup look put together. Plus it makes you stand out and then you will be a trendsetter. The next trend that I have been loving is pastels!  Pastels is always a trend during the spring time but pastels are just amazing! But this year it seems...
