movie review: sex tape

July 25, 2014

The weekend is here, and you’re wondering what to do? Check out our review of the latest rom-com to hit the big screen:

Movie: Sex Tape, featuring Cameron Diaz and Jason Segel

The plot: A couple, Jay and Annie, are still very much in love after 10 years but are battling a seriously faded sex life thanks to kids, jobs and life. When all else fails to jump start the relationship, they turn to Jay’s new iPad with incredible video capabilities while the kids are at grandma’s one night. With the help of tequila, they decide to try every position in The Joy of Sex. You can feel a little extra heat on camera in the scenes that follow until Jay realizes that he’s accidentally synced all his tech devices. The problem? He constantly upgrades his iPads, sharing old ones with friends, the mail man and even the CEO of a company that mommy blogger, Annie, is trying to land a deal with. They must get the devices back before anyone realizes.

TAGG’s take: I suppose you wouldn’t watch any porn for the plot, and the same goes for this film. The plot is ridiculous, and myself, along with friends during a girl’s night out certainly had a few cringe worthy moments over awkward sex moments, or just Jason Segel’s ass (now Cameron’s? Enviable!). Yet, we all admitted… we did laugh. And, out loud. It’s absurd, and yeah, an actual film critic would give this an F, but what does this average girl think?

Our rating: C+. Worth seeing, now when you have a spare few hours and are looking for some ridiculous laughs or wait until it’s available On Demand. No rush but it’s funny, and the average girl thinks it’s worthy. Just grab some movie popcorn, and sneak in some candy and drinks! PS: our favorite snack is the kid’s pack… best deal in the house; movie theatre popcorn, mini drink and usually a candy for around $6.

what’s in my bag

what's in my bag // essentials for the average girl
Happy Friday… we made it! First, thank you so, so much for your incredible comments and messages from yesterday’s post. We feel really blessed, and my husband and I can’t stop reading all your words…. the TAGG community is amazing.

Before the weekend kicks in, thought it would be fun to shift gears to something more light-hearted by sharing what’s typically in my bag, at least my weekday one (weekender is back to a diaper bag!).  This new Kate Spade purse has been amazing. I love the neutral glossy grey that will serve me well year-round, it fits over my shoulder (plus has a strap!), and packs in a lot without getting bulky. Keep Reading —>>

latest loves, part 1

April 8, 2014

A while back I used to share my latest acquisitions but stopped doing so for a variety of reasons. Yet, when thinking about TAGG as a place to learn about a little bit of everything, I realize what do girls often talk about? New finds, recent purchases and great deals! At least I do with my friends. So every so often, instead of sharing what I’m coveting — because it’s no fun wishing for things I possibly can’t afford! — I’ll share recent items I’ve purchased and loved. Anything, style, food, office, you name it. Even for baby, except for the insane amounts of diapers and formula. No fun there. Feel free to ask questions in the comments section if I don’t address any questions you might have.

Books are the best escape from the craziness of the day; an opportunity to entangle ourselves in magical, interesting and sometimes dark worlds. My book reading has been really pitiful as of late guys, but… I’m now half-way through The Paris Wife, and already eager for more! Here’s what’s next up on my must-read list. I’ve heard amazing things about each of these. What’s on your list to read next??

the reason I jump // how to be a friend to a friend who’s sick // the silent wife

me before you // the art of hearing heartbeats // the husband’s secret
