HOORAY!!

Earlier in the year Reid and I bought 10 movie vouchers from the Entertainment Book for Hoyts cinemas. Unfortunately, the only Hoyts we can get to without a major co-ordinated public transport effort, is at Melbourne Central and they only show the major Hollywood blockbusters/flops.

Anyways the vouchers expired at the end of June so we had a last minute scramble to use the last of them. Recently we have seen:

X-Men 3 - the last stand. Good, not as good as the first one, but pretty damn good special effects!
Cars - amazing special effects and a nice harmless story.
Over the Hedge - it was short so I didn't have time to get bored, nice harmless story.
Superman Returns - again, good special effects, nice harmless story. Superman is quite long and I was entertained throughout, I didn't think there were any low points of significant length to make me realise my bum was sore. I also thought they did really well building tension - I oood and arhhhed in all the right places.

Now of course Pirates of the Caribbean is out this Thursday so I guess its another Hollywood film up next - hopefully soon we'll see something a bit more arty!!
