Back in December, Renee and I were at the movies when we saw a preview for the Justin Bieber movie "Never Say Never." Because it is us, we started joking about how much we wanted to see that movie because we love Justin Bieber with all our hearts. Since December, whenever we saw a movie poster or trailer, we would be like "we are totally seeing that movie." In January, our joke became reality. We decided that we were going to so see this movie. Yes, a movie about a 16 year old pop star who brings girls to tears. We thought it was hilarious.
This past week, our dream came true. Renee, Lewis (isn't he the world's best husband to endure this movie), and I went to see it. It was not a bad movie. I learned that Justin Bieber is a pretty talented musician. He taught himself to play the drums, piano, guitar, and some other instruments. He is Canadian. What is not to love about that? And finally, he can bring girls to tears, especially when they are fighting over who loves him more. This reminded me of my teenage crush on the Backstreet Boys. I loved them during my teenage years, but I do not think I over cried over them. I remember hurrying home to watch Total Request Live to see if they best NSYNC out for the number on video. Those were the days.
But the Bieber movie was entertaining. However, I realized that there is one scene that will not make sense to you if you have not seen the new Karate Kid movie with Jaden Smith or at least heard the Karate Kid soundtrack. I finally saw the Karate Kid last night and I felt like I had come full circle. Renee will tell you that one of her favorite parts of the movie was when I asked "What does this song have to do with karate and China?" That is why knowing the Karate Kid connection is key.
Overall, it was a fun movie to go see and I figured if I was a 13 year old, I would definitely be in love with Justin Bieber.
