Kangaroo Jack

Howl’s moving Castle

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince

Coraline movie

“Couples Retreat” (2009 movie)

There is nothing left of the romantic comedy genre. It’s been on the decline for at least the past decade, with the odd exception that actually mixes the pathos and exhilaration of love lost and found with comedic coincidence and the kind of zany antics that for the most …
