scene at the movies recently...

Get it? Scene? Seen? Get that?? See the word play?? I'm a genius. Just joking, I'm being a nerd right now.

Anyways, I've seen two movies in theatres in the past 4 days, which is amazing for me, let me tell you. So that's fun!! What are they and how were they, you just asked? Well, thanks for asking, here's what I thought.

RV -> It was a funny movie. Robin Williams definitely had his moments in the movie. I laughed quite a bit. It's also filled with the physical humor, like biking down a mountain side and driving an RV off a cliff... stuff like that, that I personally don't find extremely funny, but that's my sense of humor. If you've seen "Failure to Launch", then when Matthew McConaughey's character gets bit by that lizard while climbing the cliff... that I didn't really find side-splitting hilarious either. But, it's a good family movie, good times had by some.

Poseidon -> Now, I saw this movie with my friend Katie, who's incredibly smart and critical of movies. So, while I was nail-biting and cringing in my seat because I was super tense, she was like, well, that was cheesy. I get into movies, though, what can I say? Especially when they're action thrillers. Then, I'm on the edge of my seat. It was like the time I watched "Day After Tomorrow" and had to call someone to be with me on the phone while I turned the lights on in my apartment because I was too freaked out to do it alone. So, anyways, Poseidon is really good, reminded me a bit of Titanic when everyone's drowning. But it was really good, I thought. The ending could've stood for a little more creativity, but beyond that, it was good. And Richard Dreyfuss was in the movie playing an odd character for him, so that was entertaining too.
