Side Effects Movie Sponsored Post & Giveaway

Since having our daughter, the hubby and I tend to spend most of our date nights ordering in and dominating the couch! All we want to do after a hectic day is relax and unwind together watching movies and catching up on our tivo'd shows. We LOVE watching trailers for movies (since we can't do that very often in the theatre) and getting a little sneak peak at good ones that are coming out! After watching the trailer for the thriller/drama Side Effects we can't wait to see it!
It's about a successful New York couple's world unraveling when a new anti-anxiety drug prescribed by Emilyís (the main character played by Rooney Mara) psychiatrist has unexpected side effects.
I love an action packed drama thriller that keeps you guessing and this film looks like its exactly that! I hate when you preview a movie and you feel like you already know exactly what's going to happen. That is not the case with this trailer! I really have no idea what to expect. What I do know is that is has an AMAZING cast! As mentioned Rooney Mara is the leading lady and I love her! She was unbelieveable in The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (although that was a very heavy movie) and I think she is a perfect fit in this movie! There's also a little eye candy for the ladies with Channing Tatum playing her husband. You cant go wrong there! Jude Law and Catherine Zeta Jones star in it as well! 
Side Effects is by the same creator of Contagion, which was another movie I really enjoyed! It seems like this movie is going to leave you questioning particular aspects of your life just as Contagion did! After watching Contagion I was washing my hands non stop! After previewing this trailer I can wait to watch it!! Here's a sneak peak....

  2. I am excited to see "Side Effects" because i am a psychotherapist and I love THRILLER movies, especially ones that have to do with the mental health feild. I was watching trailers with my husband a couple nights ago and saw this preview for the first time and got to excited! I love when I am eager to see a new film thats coming out, theres nothing better then walking to a theater with great expectations for a movie you're about to see. The anticipation and build up makes watching it that much better!

  13. This movie looks amazing! Can you beat the cast? Channing Tatum (hello, handsome) and Catherine Zeta Jones are amazing. The plot looks so suspenseful and I can not wait to see how it ends. A trip to NY to see it would make it all the more exciting. PS Love your blog!

  14. Such an exciting giveaway! I hadn't heard about the movie yet but now that I've watched the trailer I am super excited to see it. I absolutely love thrillers but it's rare that a good one comes along. I feel like alot of recent movies pretend to be thrillers to get you interested and then quickly turn into gory horror movies. But this one looks like it will actually have some twists, and I have high hopes! And it doesn't hurt that Channing Tatum, who's one of my favorite actors lately is in it as well. ;) Excited to see how he plays this more serious part. Thanks for the chance!

  26. First off, I'm an absolute sucker for thrillers; the more twists and turns, the better. But most of all I'm intrigued about the 'unexpected side effects' premise. Over the years there have been so many real cases of unplanned and sometimes truly devastating side effects that the storyline seems believable.

  91. I am excited to see this movie because it looks like a movie that will keep the audience guessing. It's not the science involved but the emotional turmoil/journey one goes through after taking a certain drug. Seeing how someone reacts and overcomes their own hardships and "side effects" seems quite interesting. Thank you for this giveaway!
