on Burlesque and Make It Happen

Follow my blog with bloglovin

Hello people :) decided to take a break from my Computing Principles notes and blog about this;




I watched Burlesque. yes i've watched it :) its a good movie. Christina as Ali. i must say that Christina is not a great actress but she is definitely a GREAT singer. watching her sing and perform is really nice :) The dance routine was good as well.. pretty entertaining :) the storyline is very classic... A girl who escapes from a small town to a hectic city and trying to be who she always wanted to be... first she worked as a waitress but ends up as a burlesque dancer in the club. in the story there is the cute bartender that ends up being her partner... therez Gays... a bitch (how can you not have one in this kind of movie)... there is an asshole you tries to get her but damn fail... and of course Cher as Tess... the 'primadona' shez like the big boss in the movie... takes control of things... tries to fix the problem that their club were having and gave up because she ran out of ideas but Ali has better plans and solved everything :)


BUT.... the storyline is SO similar to Make It Happen by Darren Grant.



Mary Elizabeth Wistead holds the main role. she is a girl from a small town who ends up dancing in a burlesque club after being rejected from one of the most prestigious dance schools in America. she first started as a clerk sorta thing in the club before she became a burlesque dancer. the guy that ended up as her boyfriend works in club as well... as a DJ... he creates and compose his own music.. just like the bartender from Burlesque .oh Ashley from pussycat doll acted as one of the burlesque dancer, shez good :) there is a bitch in the story too. who was a former top dancer in the club but the new girl took over her place.
seriously... its almost the same.
except the fact that Christina sings in Burlesque... and there is more conflict in the movie, which makes it SO MUCH better than Make It Happen :)

i'd say 8/10 for burlesque and 5/10 for Make It happen :)
for a note... people always take Burlesque (as in the dance) as a strip dance or slutty thingy.. but seriously... its wayyyyyyyy classy and glamorous :)

i watched so many movies for the past 6 days. my eyes needs some rest. been switching between my notes and movies.
