DVC was on my menu today. It was okay, Ron Howard did a decent job and I think Tom Hanks' performance was so remote, he probably should have phoned it in from home. Otherwise, it was entertaining enough, ultra serious, no fun until Sir Ian showed up and showed how to make the most of a fun character. The scenary was good, Tatou was not as unintellible as the critics complained (I had no trouble understanding her dialogue). I love Alfred Molina, but he ws pretty much wasted on this film, anyone could have played the role of the Bishop. The film was okay and I don't think it deserves the drubbing it has been getting. Slow in spots, Tom Hanks phoning it in, but a fun story and Sir Ian makes it worth the matinee price of admission.

Our megaplex was showing this film on 4 screens, so our 3:45 showing was about 1/3 of the way full. Naturally, with all this space, the 3 clowns in front of me decided they would text message through the film. Until I turned into megaplex bitch, that is.

We were also treated to the trailer, in some form or another of the newest Adam Sandler flick called Click. Yeah, like repeated, incessant clips from this film would make me pay to see it? Nah, I'll pass.

Also saw the Cars trailer, I'll go see it, but I was not enthused.
