Movie Overload
So I just got done with work a couple of weeks ago and online summer school a couple of days ago, so freedom feels good. Obviously, there is a ton of other important things I need to do and should be doing, but all that can take a back seat for a couple of days.
We went and saw Public Enemies today. Johnny Depp, Christian Bale and kickass trailer were convicing enough. We didn’t read reviews before hand though. Big mistake. It was shit. Super duper shit. It made “New York” (read post below) look decent. Yeah, it was that bad. Okay, the cinematography was decent, the acting was good (obviously), but the story sucked (yes, there is no better word to describe it). It lacked everything that New York had and New York lacked everything Public Enemies had. Weird. I don’t get it. My true reaction to the movie – why in the world would you make a movie like that? It’s really really friggin’ weak. I was waiting for it to start, waiting for some twist to betwixt us between the twain, but no, nothing.
It was so frustrating/depressing that I had to come back and watch a movie to get over it. So I saw Match Point – a decent movie, but it’s too wrong to like. Didn’t help. So I ended up watching The Hangover instead. Best thing that happened to me today, and probably this entire week. It’s friggin’ hilarious. It’s so damn funny that it’s not even worth reviewing.
This blog should have more than just half-assed movie reviews. I just can’t sum up the courage/time to do that though.
P.S. Ironically, as in with no relation to The Hangover, it was a really good night-out with the guys. Truth y Truth, I tell you.

noooooooooooooooooooooo
im still gonna see it tho…..
You’re the second person who said Public Enemies sucked big time – I’m not going to bother with it.
I think Hangover is a more of a guy movie (you know like you have ‘chick flicks’ for girls). It was nice but I didn’t find it as hilarious as many people said they thought it was.
