Movie time.

Monday my husband had a dental appointment and used it as and excuse to take the day off.   So we headed to the movies.  Salt with Angelina Jolie was out.  We liked it, its very thrilling, lots of intense action.  Some of the reviews have not been so kind, referring to it a a large budget to blow things up, and the script was written on post it notes, but I do have to say its deeper than that.  After seeing Inception the week before, which is also intense with some interesting subtleties, I thought it was still a good flick.

On of our friends just returned from several weeks in Germany so we headed to the movies with her today.  Surprisingly we saw Dinner with the Schmucks and it was MUCH MUCH better than anticipated.  We laughed so hard, and you do need to stay all the way thru the credits for the last little bit.  We were the only ones in there, when we were surprised by this little bit.  I am not a big fan of Steve Corel but I know many others are.  I am slightly amazed he got some of the lines out with blowing it. 

So if your looking for intensity and espionage, see SALT.  If your looking to lighten your mood and have a good time, see Dinner with the Scmucks.
