Movies

Today we saw 2 movies.

Kung Fu Panda: We took the kids and met Steph and Michael at the movie. We all loved it. Hilarious. You get what you expect from the previews. I don't think it would have been the same without Jack Black. Just knowing it's him and hearing his voice, and already knowing his mannerisms, made the tiniest things so funny. It was very much fun. Tony and I took the girls to The Creamery to get burgers and ice cream. They had never been. It made them so happy they are totally in love with the place now.



The Happening: Later this evening Priscilla, Steph, Michael, Tony and I went to see The Happening. (was a perfect movie to see on Friday the 13th!!) It got mixed reviews all around but this is what I thought. Ok so I absolutely LOVE the message of this movie. I won't say why so I won't give anything away but if you really really really know me you'll know why. I am a bit biased because I love M. Night 's movies so much, but I really liked it. I really really liked the ending. It was probably one of my least favorite though, because of the stuff that is hard to watch. So I don't know if I could watch it again and if I did it would be a long time. I'm not a violence person, I mean I can handle alot, but I'm not the person that's like "COOL!" when I see someone's arm get ripped off. I can't handle seeing bodies full force land on the ground from 5 stories up or close ups of blood spurting out of gun shot wounds to the head or a car wrecking and bodies being thrown out of it, etc. I didn't expect to get that much in-your-face-can-they-really-show-that violence. The good thing is, you can defiantly tell when it's coming so you can close your eyes if you need to. I was also bored in parts, and I hate Mark Wahlberg so that took a little away, but I love Zooey Deshnel so that added a bit back. And again, I loved the crystal clear message that the movie is about.

I was very happy I got the X-Files preview! *squee!*
