pump up the volume...
One of the perks of being unemployed (did I just say that?!) is the ability to go to the movies at any time you want. Say, right before dinnertime, on a Tuesday, after catching up on some highly involved reading on the crapper. Yes, it's true! Anytime. That was exactly what I did this week. Well, it was after dinner, but you get the idea.
Wife and I went to see Silent Hill, Ba-by! I really liked it, wife not so much. She's like way smarter than me so it's probably just the case that I don't know a good movie from a good beer. I don't really like beer though, so she may have a point. Or something. But it rocked, I swear!
The director wasted no time in getting the whole thing started. Let's just say that if you have any problems with heights, grab your seat post-haste! From those first few minutes, the ride just gets more intense. I think the effects are some of the best I have seen and the frighteningly good use of air raid sirens is perfect. If you are a fan of game-based movies, you won't be disappointed.
I only have one complaint. Just a small, teenie-weenie concern. It has nothing at all to do with the movie itself, but the movie theatre. I'm referring to the Malco Theatre in my area to be exact. Apparently some jack-assed moron thought the volume wasn't high enough for the space station's crew to hear so this pickle-headed dimwit cranked it up some more. My ears were ringing for two, count them, one + one = two days!
I'll remember from now on to bring me some earplugs.
