The Big Move

I've been a bit incommunicado lately, seeing as I had no internet for a week and a half. Between classes, Ellice's family in town (both GI James and the Austrian Momma and Papa Chicks), and moving into our new apartment, I haven't had time to dedicate to the blog. But things are levelling out now and settling into a semblance of routine.

I will explain.
Wait, there's too much.
I will sum up.

Swimming, eating out, moving, class, 36th Birthday, dust and allergies, new bikes, sore butts, new seats for the bikes, comfey butts, learning sign language and a couple of movies.

Hancock
All-in-all an enjoyable movie. The plot was good, the acting credible. This was a movie that was not quite about superheroes as self-discovery and redemption. Perhaps I'm getting a bit old and turning into a fuddy-duddy, but the language bothered me just a little. This movie had a twist that blindsided me, and I like it when they can surprise me a bit. Fun, but not a must own. **1/2

WARNING! This movie is not for the squeamish or the young. The language is profane; the sex and violence graphic. The movie did not need the graphic depictions of either to hold up; in fact both detracted quite a bit from the experience. The main character could have done with a little less whinyness but the acting was passable. That all being said, the plot is very, very good. Coupled with the action, the movie holds up enough to be enjoyed by an informed audience who knows what to expect. We won't own this one due to its graphic nature. **1/2
