Ah the time had come to go to the pictures again!
It was a long time since I had last been and tonight proved why.
Luckily enough myself and my girlfriend and the "Orange Wednesdays" text code thingy-ma-jig, so its like buy one get one free on tickets for the pictures. This ment that we had to wait in line to buy a ticket from the desk. I don't like this. Its not the queuing or the wait, its the fact I wonder who will annoy me the most, IF, your going to see the same film as me. Alright I also like to use the computer to collect my pre-booked tickets.
Pick and Mix in one hand. Already been to the toilet. Bang on half past 8... Film time! YAY!
Well no not really... Now I know that adverts and trailers come on first to sell me a car or show me the next Oscar winning comedy set in China where the American girl doesn't realise she's offending everyone with handbag dogs and skimpy skirts. After a voyage of self yadda yadda yadda. One question got me though..
When did the advert bit become so long? Did I sit though 32 minutes of adverts? Another reason that people download films. I was punished for buying a ticket and putting every one in a awkward position it seems by coming to the cinema..
Now after being told I had time to get a coke, The lights went down and the feature presentation came on...... Battle : Los Angeles.
Apart from the fact the lead guy in it is Harvey Dent from The Dark Knight and I didn't realise this till the very end, The film is crap. The usual over the top cheese from the yanks saving us all. Think of it as a bad remake of Black Hawk Down, dash of Transformer and Independence Day thrown in.
To make it worse, it has a predictable plot but your always wondering when the film is going to end.
Not much to say on a crap film..
