First of all, strange weather going on...
That
being said, happy belated birthday to Katy Perry and happy wedding to her and Russel brand. In a twisted kind of celebration, I finally saw "Get Him to the Greek" tonight. Interesting movie, although we turned on the subtitles because RB was "
pre'ty bloody '
ard to 'ear," but then again, so was
Diddy. This is definitely not a family movie,(even if you are
forty) and other than the overall idea that Mr. Snow (Brand) needed to get on stage at the Greek theater, it wandered all over the place. The promos definitely hyped it up to look like more...
I was pleased and privileged to attend the NY premiere screening of Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation on Monday night. The mvie was great! I'm usually more of a comedy fan, but I really enjoy a good chasing thrilling action movie, and this does not disappoint. There are some amazingly shot chase scenes through the streets of Morocco with motorcycles and a very hearty BMW, a sneaky escape from the Vienna Opera House, and my personal favorite, an underwater slide ride into a nuclear reactor's computer storage system. Tom Cruise himself and the movie's director Christopher McQuarrie popped into our theater (from the totally exclusive screening in the theater above us) to welcome us to the movie and thank us for coming! From 6 rows away, Tom looks pretty good at 53 and was very humbled to be there at the screening. The truly amazing part of the night, free popcorn and sodas at the theater.
