Never forget me... whoever I am
So, I went to see The Forgotten this afternoon. Still not sure what to think of it... for those not in the know, that's a new movie out w/Julianne Moore. She plays a mother who insists that she used to have a son, and everyone else thinks she's crazy. Well, i think she's crazy too... but not for that part... just b/c she's got freckles... wait... I have freckles... hmm... it all makes sense now...
Anyway, there's twists along the way, but the coolest effect was watching people get sucked out of midair to... well, I'm not sure where, but somewhere. And the ending wasn't really satisfactory to me... it just ended on a weird note... like not how these type of stories are supposed to end. Anyway, I can't really explain what I mean w/out giving away much of the plot...
The only other thing I didn't like about the movie was the excessive (to me) use of the "shaky-cam" effect. Personally it makes me sick and gives me a headache as my eyes try to focus onto one concrete image. Blah...
All in all, I'm glad it was a matinee... so it was only 4.75, and at least it was mostly entertaining. I'll agree w/some reviews that I've seen online, that it is basically like a clone of an x-files episode... a weird one... but just a bit longer...
The weekend was great besides, mostly cleaning and hanging out with my girlfriend... who is amazing by the way. Also got to hang out w/my roommate Andy, who is an awesome guy... super funny and crazy... no wonder we get along so well...
That's all for tonight...
I'm out...
Rock Rock On,
I
