Hancock - TXT Message Review

HancockThe best thing about the Fourth of July is that Will Smith movies come out on Tuesday instead of Friday. As such, I was able to catch the first showing of Hancock today at 7:05. Charlize Theron and Jason Bateman are curiously paired once again. My comments, as furiously tapped out to Nick post-credits, are below.

hancock was great. action and the origin worked for me. best superhero movie of the summer so far. hopefully they don’t ruin it with a sequel.

Upon second thought though, this is not the ‘best superhero movie of the summer so far’ - but it certainly is the most creative and original.

I’m reserving the rest of my commentary for next week’s Podcast.

The Happening - TXT Message Review

I dipped out of work early today in order to grab a Honkers Ale at Old Chicago before screening M. Night Shyamalan’s newest attempt at cinema. Here is the text I sent Nick on my way out of the theater. (160 characters or less)

The Happening wasn’t scary or entertaining. message was totally lame - shitty even for a matinee. Shyamalan is making my last name look bad.

I probably should have seen Get Smart or Kung Fu Panda instead.
