Tonight we saw The Hurt Locker at LSC. War movies are not my favorite genre, and I was afraid to watch some parts of it. There were more than a handful of intense scenes that required me to shield my eyes. I thought the actor and drama was really riveting, the character development of the main character was fascinating. It is clear that sometimes, people get addicted to doing something they feel is important and they get a high from it. However, once you have a social responsibility, it seems like it can't end well if you give up your passion for a stable life. It was definitely an interesting movie, and shows that there are a lot of tough choices to be made for people who are exceptionally talented.

Kill Bill was awful. Lots of gratuitous violence, that I didn't enjoy. I didn't think there was much plot, and the cinematography was too friggin' obvious. Isn't Tarantino too clever having a whole scene in silohuette? No. I don't think I'll be watching the sequel. Good think I saw it at LSC, where it was discounted. Quite a few of the audience left during this movie, it was so bad...Zatoichi is a lot better of a campy, beautiful, samarai flick.
3 Idiots not so idiotic
I have not had time to watch many movies in the past year. However, over Xmas break I saw 3 Idiots and thought it was awesome. I can sympathize with the ideals in the movie about wanting to have a better understanding of engineering and struggling against other factors that may inhibit this love for learning. Only once a person gets over fear and external pressure can they truly enjoy what they do. The best thing about the movie is the songs: All Izz Well and Zoobie Doobie are my two favorite songs to watch with the kid.
